Instructions: For car foods, we like the carrots, and I also take celery sticks, cucumber sticks, slices of daikon radish (topped with soy sauce). Those grape tomatoes are wonderful! Weve even managed to put a container of dip between us, and we can safely dip and drive.

I adore jicama strips soaked in some citrus juice and sprinkled with chili powder (optional). I always take these on the road, but never think about eating them at home. Duh.

Hummus would be good. Or any bean spread. You can find small containers of those in most large grocery stores today. You could use it as a dip, or smear some on pita bread and add some lettuce and tomatoes. (Pitas work well because the sandwich stuffing isnt as likely to fall on your lap. :-) )

Orange segments and berries are easy to eat. You could pick up some of those bottled smoothies. You like dates. How about almond stuffed dates? and dont forget the whole wheat crackers and pretzels.
