Reddit mentions of Gorp, Glop and Glue Stew: Favorite Foods from 165 Outdoor Experts

Thanks. I don't know if I could do better than what's already out there... things like Diet for a Small Planet and other hippie and camping cook books were an influence but I've only really incorporated a small part of that. Part of the difficulty in writing a cookbook I'm realizing is that taking advantage of what's local is really hard to document comprehensively. I spent a lot of time in Arizona in the US and moving away was difficult... I was completely addicted to the free grapefruit, oranges, figs, dates, prickly pair fruit, all growing on the side of the road, and to the mesquite flour, fresh roasted peppers, etc, etc.


Diet for a Small Planet is outdated now but still has a lot of the hippie food spirit. https://www.amazon.com/Gorp-Glop-Glue-Stew-Favorite/dp/0898860172 is a good old fashoined camping food cookbook.


My father camped a lot, partially to get away from the fussier parts of raising kids (simple meals, wash your dishes in the creek without soap and re-use them, not worried too worried about getting dirty, etc) and my mother canned fresh fruit and veggies so I blame them ;)
