Traveling to India with my 4-year-old next week. The last time we went, she was 2 and did great.

She’s a good eater and eats Indian food at home, but are there any snacks or foods you’ve taken or recommend I pack from USA to have on hand?

So far, I’ve got mac and cheese, cereal, Goldfish, and Rice Krispie squares, just a few familiar things in case she wants.

I think my question was misinterpreted- I am asking what snacks or foods people took from here. Incase she gets tired or just wants something different than what she will get there.

Are there specific things your child eats on a daily basis? If so, then maybe just carry those. We always ate homemade Indian food in the US as well, so when my son was young, he didn't know any difference. In fact, he tried biscuits and chocolates in india which we usually never had at home when he was that young. Unless your child is super picky about some specific food, it shouldn't be an issue

The only thing I remember taking was Nesquik chocolate powder when my kids were under 10 as they were picky about that. Rest they ate home cooked food or snacks from India.

My kids are in the teens and have been to India pretty much every year, and for close to a month each time. As babies we gave them parle g crushed in milk, then graduated to bourbon, hide n seek and other Britannia biscuits. They love it! You also get flavored makhanas and Oreos etc.

Sorry, not scaring you but giving my opinion.
