I find carbs like crackers and breads dehydrate me an will also give me the shits if eating for multiple days but can get away with one day.

Yes, Salami and Cheese are high in salts / nitrates which our body wishes to excrete, so we pee more than if we eat complex low GI carbs like cooked Kumera, Brown rice etc. crackers and (most) breads are not complex carbs. Salami, and other preserved meats contain preservatives which are enzyme inhibitors and these make it more difficult for us to digest our food.
The real answer is for us to copy what endurance athletes use as tucker. Those people have done all the research and have all the answers so we should just copy them imo.
