{"text":"Newbie OTR driver here, noticed that there aren't many truck stops with a lot of food options, reaching out for some tips. Do you guys eat at fast food places most of the time? Eat frozen meals? Bring meals from home? So far have only been on the US East coast, and between Toronto and Quebec City, maybe it's just location specific? Have also noticed there aren't many places with a lot of showers, or places to buy everyday toiletries. Let me know what you guys are thinking. Appreciate it. Thanks.

842845 发表于 2021-10-17 19:17:38 I got the Coleman 12 volt cooler from truck stop and small microwave! Subways oven roasted chicken or teriyaki chicken with lots of veggies and cooked hamburgers from truck stops should last 3 days in the cooler for lunch/dinner! I take top bun off and part of hamburger off so it’s not so much red meat every day, less calories! Baked beans or small cans of spaghetti for side dish! Instant oatmeal, 2%milk and coffee for breakfast! Snacks: peanuts, peanut butter and honey on slice of bread, beef jerkys! Apples, bananas! Stock up on zero sugar Gatorade and cases of water to stay hydrated! Also stretching and 10 minute walk/jog after shutdown and dinner to get blood flowing and heart pumping! I work 14 hr days! Works for me! Any other suggestions let me know!

{"replyTo":"","text":"I bought a 4.3 Cubic foot fridge and freezer at Walmart. I have a Microwave and an air fryer as well I cook most my meals at home to take with me. Eating at the truck stops and fast food gets expensive and, is not very healthy.  After a bit you will learn places you can park and grab something to eat.","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"Hey driver!  Welcome to the road grind.  In some regions it’s more difficult to find good food options.  Many drivers will carry additional food storage; portable coolers, freezers, or refrigerators.  I had my company remove my passenger seat and I put in a small dorm fridge. Plenty of space for frozen and refrigerated foods.  I also carry a toaster oven, microwave and air fryer. I cook and eat on the truck 95% of the time.  Much healthier and cheaper.  I also carry empty gallon water jugs and refill while Shopping at Walmart’s around the country.  You be healthy and save a ton of money.  ","replyToPid":0}
