Be careful with the dehydrated miso, BarleyBrains!

It can be a bit yang, if consumed too often.

The Mitoku misos http://www.simply-natural.biz/natural_foods_miso.php that come in a glass jar, keep very well in cool, dark, spots (best is either barley or brown rice miso) and are more balanced for one's health.

Macrobiotic camping shares many of the same features as macrobiotic traveling, including foods that you take with you and various cookware that you use to prepare and cook your food:

miso

shoyu

sea salt

sea vegetables

shiitake mushroom

kukicha (twig) tea

pure water

oil

grains

vegetables

beans

noodles

bread

umeboshi

a vegetable knife

cutting board

chop sticks (cooking and eating kinds)

wooden spoons and spatulas

various bowls and plates

pots

stove

scrubbers

and so on.

Car and roadside camping you can use either butane http://www.iwatani.com/asp/w_product...p?CategoryID=1 , propane, or white gas.

Backpack camping, you will either be cooking over a fire or a portable gas stove.

Pots can be a pressure cooker and a soup pot or two, a couple of regular stainless steel pots or if backpacking deep in the wilderness, nestling stainless steel cookware.

A portable water purifier can come in handy if one is going to be too far from clean water sources for a while.
