    I usually take boiled eggs on my fishing day trip in a bag. On longer trips usually in a egg carrier/holder.

    About eggs longevity, we did a road trip in Dec 2020 and took eggs with us in a holder. Came back home, kept the holder in its place in Kitchen. Last week I was travelling so took it out and found one raw egg in it. Was looking okay so made an omelette and ate it, still alive. That egg survived 1 year and 3 months of Indian summer/winters and was still edible .

    Yeh boiled eggs. Come in a disposable wrapper. All the goodness is still there. Fat and protein. A great filler to knock back the hunger pangs any time of the day.

    I guess it depends on if you are setting up a tent in the middle of the bush and trying to save on weight, or if you have a place that is easily accessible so you can take a whole bunch of stuff without worrying too much about weight. For meals in the middle of the bush I guess dehydrated powdered eggs are the way to go.

    Wouldn’t eat it at home, wouldn’t eat it in the bush. My thinking is that any food I take in with me ain't coming out, so a marginal amount of extra weight to bring along a decent meal is worth it.

    Oldest thread but come back to life. I used to carry eggs by putting them in pair of socks inside a billy. Fully protected from breakage used to start with a clean pair then used as the trip went on.

    Put a bit of paper towel at the top, it stops the liquid from getting into the seal.

    I've never eaten a camera. Do you have any good recipes?
