Is anyone else not really a picnic fan? If I'm eating outside, it's a granola bar or piece of fruit while hiking. You sit with food somewhere and you just attract flies, get sand in your food, your trash blows away from you.

I don't like sand. It's coarse, and rough, and irritating, and it gets everywhere....

hmmm. I dislike picnics but I enjoy camping and cooking on/by fire.

Crackers or tortillas with summer sausage and a block of cheese is the only way besides granola, trail mix or dried fruit when I’m hiking. Just bring a pocket knife.

Agree. I also feel the same about eating outdoors at a restaurant.

Yeah and why does picnic food smell and taste different? I swear I can make the same thing and eat it outside at home and it tastes totally different. Maybe it's because I hate picnics...

And picnics are such a modern thing too. Back in the day when you had to kill or grow everything I'm pretty sure nobody said, "Hey let's take our shit and go eat it somewhere else."

Watch Naked and Afraid while eating and you will never look at picnics the same ever again.
