Bringing my own food on the road saves money and time, but messy ingredients make trips more stressful.
Making food in the car is messy.
Kypros/Getty ImagesIn the summer of 2015, I took a two-week-long road trip for the first time.
Creating sandwiches on the road was stressful, and making a mess was all too easy.
Since that trip, I have only packed ready-made "meals" for road trips, like protein bars and shakes.
