[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in the 60's/70's. Our vacations were often camping trips. We rarely went out to dinner - children weren't typically in restaurants in those days. McDonalds was a treat, and I don't think I went to one until I was a tween or teen. Whenever we did a car trip we always packed a lunch. At the time it seemed normal, although I did have rich friends who got to do fancier vacations. I was excited when I was on my own that I could afford to go to McDonald's at the highway rest stops. The irony is that I now usually pack a lunch because I don't like the unhealthy food choices at rest stops. My kids are very privileged - lots of travel/international travel/ski trips in the west and Europe, etc. But we often rent houses or Airbnb's and do at least some cooking at home. Plus we have a beach house where we spend time and of course do a lot of our own cooking there. Pretty sure they don't feel like it is a bad thing. [/quote]
