Hi,
Thanks, Mark for sharing JeffN's new post to Beyond Burger thread with the study, etc.
This reminded me that I have a question... Not urgent, just trying to plan for a trip later this year (and test what I am planning to bring).
The trip is a cruise, and we are a group of about 15 --- so didn't have much say over the venue (with crappy choices for MWL food). Anyway, I expect that I will need to pack MWL compliant starch choices (there will be plenty of fruits and raw veggies). I am confident that I can get oatmeal at breakfast --- but that's about it.
There is a vegan / vegetarian menu that can be ordered off of .... They have significantly changed it from prior years and each meal offers choice with the "BEYOND" fake meat (veggie sausage, veggie chicken, veggie burger)... So, yeah --- not going to eat that.
Had thought to just bring a rice cooker and a bunch of rice ---- which I could eat happily for the week with the fruits and raw veggies... Found out that you are not allowed to bring any applicance and it did specify this one as an example. BOO BOO BOO!!!!
There is no microwave... Another BOO...
So, I have come to conclusion that I need to bring starch that I can make edible with warm water from coffeepot that will be in room. Planning to bring: oatmeal and McD Split Pea and Black Bean soup cups. Bought a bag of Bob's Red Mill Potato flakes to try.
Question --- Is anyone aware of any other whole grain / starch that can be reconstituted with just warm water that is MWL compliant?
Thanks for any feedback.
Best,
Stephanie
