Eats

Nothing can derail a trip faster than a food meltdown. But before you park yourself at McDonalds to chow down on fries in an attempt to shake the shock, read up on the food culture of the country (or countries) you’re headed to. You might need to make some dietary concessions, depending on where you are and what the locals serve. Learn ahead of time what the fare might be. If you’re a picky eater, have religion-based food restrictions, are vegetarian/vegan, or have a severe food allergy (peanuts would be tough in Thailand or a gluten allergy in Italy), you should plan ahead, knowing what foods you can eat (and the ones you can’t), including the names in the local lingo. Also, foods that sound familiar might be completely different—in Spain a tortilla is a potato omelette, not a burrito wrapper or taco shell.

Remember, food is part of the experience. There will be times when you order something and a baked goat head with eyeballs will show up twenty minutes later. Roll with the punches, take a photo for Instagram, and chalk it up to being all part of the journey. It’s all going down that culturally shocking shitter anyway.
