Desert field work: food gets serious


I spent last week trekking across the deserts of Nevada and Utah, on a paleontology field trip. I concocted the most astonishingly terrible gorp recipe which I must share with you! Combine these things in a bag:
Trader Joe's Tamari Roasted Almonds
TJ's Wasabi Peas
Craisins

Totally delicious in a sinister way. Induces AWFUL breath. Lots of protein.

The other amazing wonder food from heaven is something I found in Little Tokyo in Downtown Los Angeles. If you are headed to the field, I highly recommend this. Bring chop sticks and a bag for the tin when you're done. (For a detailed review, see my Nov 2008 post, "Indulgence in a shitty economy")
