My husband & I camp a lot in the Summer and I was asked to share how I stay on this WOL without a refrigerator. I hope this helps.
I take tons of veggies, cheese, salad dressing, mayo, etc. I LOVE cooking burgers and/or steaks on a campfire. Most camp sites we go to have a grill that you burn wood or coal. We do have our own grill but I love cooking on the campfire best. Bags of frozen berries keep pretty good. I hard boil a lot of eggs to take along as well as regular eggs. We take sausage and bacon for breakfasts. I always take a bag of pork rinds in case of the "snack attack" but I limit my consumption because they make me retain water. Pre-made deviled eggs are a favorite, make sure you stack them properly. We have a 10 gal. jug that we fill with water from our tap. When we stop to pick up ice for the coolers, we put a bag in the jug and it keeps the drinking water cold all weekend.
There is NO reason why you can't continue this WOE while camping... NONE!!!
As far as hotels go where you can't cook (I have been known to sneak an electric burner sometimes), grab a couple of coolers. You can take tea bags for iced tea (most hotels, if not all, have ice machines) instead of coffee. Take lunch meat type meats and salad items. Hardboil some eggs to take. Yogurt, cottage cheese. Pre-cook meats that aren't too bad cold like chicken & steaks. Depending on what rung you are on, nuts are a good snack or in salads. Beef jerky is good, watch the labels.
Be creative and keep checking here for ideas. The more you can take, the less you will have to spend :nod
