faint-at-heart
811rv is not for the faint-at-heart. One thing I have discovered is that it can be extremely difficult, and expensive at times.
For example, when I go out to dinner with my family I start to crave the cooked foods everyone else is eating. The smells can get to you.
Sometimes I taste other peoples cooked foods too. Tasting it is probably the wrong thing to do because it just messes with your head, and your taste buds. I should probably avoid going to dinner at all, but sometimes that's what the family and friends want to do.
I have been eating tons of banana's because they are high in calories, and fairly inexpensive. All the comments from people about banana's gets old really quickly though.
It is expensive for me to go backpacking now because basically all I eat are dates. It takes about 50 dates to meet my caloric needs for one day of hiking (about 3000-3500 calories).
One case of dates is about 11 lbs, and can last a few days if I eat other stuff as well (nuts, low-temp dried banana's and other fruits, etc..). The current cost of a case of dates from Whole Foods is about $85. Sometimes I even bring an avocado, or two.
I am getting excited because many fruits and veggies are back in season again. Hopefully prices will go down a bit as a result. I had my first watermelon in several months, this morning.
