Has anyone considered meal prepping their own food and bringing with on road? Ex. Cooked chicken and vegetables. Could it be doable/safe with a 2 hour plane ride?

Why??? Doesn't your firm pay for food?
Just go to Panda Express and ask for boiled veggies and teriyaki grilled chicken.

Seems like a lot of overhead Can you just stay in a place with a kitchen? Go shopping the first night?

Some former coworkers would find meal prep type of places close to the client site. Once when I was in Dallas working for a federal client, we couldn’t leave the office at all during the day (there were onsite fast food vendors like Starbucks, Subway, etc.) So I arranged a weekly meal pick up with a local Indian house wife. It was awesome because I was able to eat healthily while on the road while my alternative was fries and sugar every day.

I do it every week! Ive never had an issue brining it on the plane or with it getting warm in between leaving my house and putting it in the fridge at the hotel/client. I know exactly what I am putting in the food I make vs meal prep places or restaurants
