[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again. One of my kids and I have IBS, is that enough info for you to understand why I don’t want to stop at Chick Fil A or KFC. It’s a vacation, there will be lots of junk food eaten, don’t worry, since many of you seem consumed with that concern. Which is why when it is easy, I’d like to plan ahead for healthier options. In this case it is easy to do so, and I simply asked for ideas for what to pack, not for fast food options nor edicts to eat earlier. Thank you to those who provided suggestions, I’ll be using one of them. [/quote]

Maybe if you had mentioned the IBS in the OP people would have different responses. But you acted like a weirdo who wants to cook dinner at 10 PM because they don’t want to get to their destination 30 minutes later and used lasagna as an example of bad for you food. Most families even with teens do not eat at 9 PM/10 PM.   And by the way, IBF is not triggered by “bad food, it’s different for each person. [/quote]

Why did I need to mention IBS? In my original post, I said I didn’t want to stop to eat along the drive, and asked for suggestions for healthy meals to pack that we could eat when we get to our destination. If you didn’t have a suggestion, then I’m not sure why you even replied to my post. I certainly didn’t need posters telling me I should stop along the drive, of course I know I could do that.

And not sure why I keep feeling the need to explain myself to you, but since it is a vacation, and I know there will be some junky eating, I’d rather save the junky eating for good stuff like our favorite beach donuts or fried shrimp than McDonalds along the drive down. We try to eat healthy or at least healthish so as to reduce IBS flares (along with general gut health). And yes, we usually eat at 8:30, our kids don’t even get home from sports practices until around then. So it won’t be any big deal to eat at 9:30.

Sheesh.

A lot of foods that people consider "healthy" are triggers for IBS. What are your kid's food tolerances/intolerances?[/quote]
