The best kinds of food to bring on a camping trip are those that are easy to store and easy to make at camp. But, it also depends on what kind of gear you plan to bring with you. If you're planning to pack a camp stove, plates, bowls, utensils for cooking hearty meals, the sky's the limit.If you prefer to pack a little bit lighter, consider bringing food like hotdogs or brats to cook over the fire, fixings for sandwiches, and dehydrated meals that don't require a lot of prep and extra equipment.As far as snacks go, you can't go wrong with things that stay good in a variety of conditions: trail mix, bars, nuts, beef jerky, and dried fruits to name a few.
