Road Trip Food [Travel]

I'd add peanut butter for those crackers (I take it with me on all trips since I can live off the stuff).
I like those packages or easy-open cans of ready-to-eat tuna (PC has just come out with some awesome new flavours, too). They're great for spreading on crackers or making easy sandwiches with.
I also separate mixed vegetables (crudites) into little plastic bags, dip optional. They replace the small bags of chips (more low-energy foods are your friend here, because you'll be doing a lot of sitting in the car).
Celery and Cheez Wiz (yeah, most of you will probably urp at that one).
That's all I have for now...

I love celery and cheez whiz, or peanut butter, or cream cheese. Yum.
A lot of simple sandwiches get taken with us (and by simple, I mean leberwurst sandwiches...)
Olives, pickles, other of those types of foods (pickled veggies).
Almonds, peanuts, other nuts/legumes (oh! roasted chickpeas!!!)
I take heaps of water/cold tea/juice+water with me, because I get really dehydrated and then I crave salty snacks (which I always do...)
We usually only go as far as London, so my snacks are for a 6 hour drive. Have fun out east Zym

Just wondering what y'all take with on a trip like that.
I just grilled up a huge local-organic pork steak and an even larger cut of ribs, and cut it all up into finger-food pieces.
I often make a big batch of my granola bars for these trips.
Of course some cheese - actually a friend of ours is moving to Edmonton in a few days and was by yesterday and dropped off a big supply of really nice cheeses her mom had bought on a visit a month or so ago. They all seem to still be good.
We normally have a box of crackers like Triscuit or something like that.
There is a big container of home made mac and cheese in the fridge from supper last night that will go in our cooler.
