    my favorite place to shop is Aldis
    their wheat thins and triscuits are half price of name brands
    buy my instant oatmeal there too and trail mix
    all cheaper then walmart
    if I eat at the TS I go to Pilot and get the soups or sausage gravy

    I luv my Toastabag... its a bag you put your sandwich in then slip in toaster. I was skeptical at first, thought the bags would never last, grilled cheese sink to bottom, nope it works incredibly well! I mostly use it for grilled cheese, and hot deli sandwiches, but can put anything that fits inside toaster into it. Found them a Menards of all places..go figure? around $10, I went back and bought a bunch more so I could last a week and wash them when I got home.

    Fixed link, I think?

    Some sort of mesh, it almost seems like plastic... best way I can describe it is, super thin Kevlar.
    Never had one melt yet, and only threw one out so far, seam broke while washing it. Not bad for 4 months use.

    I don't know if I could get that involved in meal prep, but if I ever run into you, I'll bring the drinks and let's have dinner!

    As a company driver I am not allowed to put an inverter (hardwired) into my truck, so I pretty much run with a cooler and use TS microwaves when possible. I always worry I'll forget a fridge is plugged in and kill my batteries overnight. Is that even a possibility? I have no idea how much they power they draw. As for microwaves, you need at least a 750 watt inverter or a few hundred dollars for the DC powered ones. That would be handy though!
