If you've traveled but don't necessarily have enough money to get food at a restaurant your whole stay what do you do for food?
Do you bring back instant microwavable slop to the hotel or are you supposed to save up enough so you can afford to eat out each day?
This is a dumb question I know but I'm a dumb person who had chips and beer for my one meal a day last time I traveled

Mix something high calorie for energy, and something full of fiber to fill you up.
Nuts, peanut butter, lunch meats plus oatmeal or rice or whatever.
Eat at least one hot meal a day, even if it's just a fast food burger
Those are my rules when I'm on hikes/ motorcycle trips and food’s not always easy to come by

Yeah retard. You aren’t supposed to travel if you can’t afford to eat. What the fuck are you poorfags even doing? Sleeping in hostels and spending all day in free areas like city parks? Jesus Christ you should focus on improving your marketable skills and earning some real money. Younger generations will do anything to for a dopamine fix without achieving or accomplishing anything.

Figure out your options as you go. Here in Poland you can eat ham & cheese sandwiches for pretty cheap. Frozen meals cooked in the guesthouse or hostel kitchen. It's a PITA when you're moving every day, you gotta eat all your perishables up. And yes, I recommend having snacks on hand if your room isn't infested with hungry ants. Setting out hungry on your journey is bearable, but not pleasant.

Better than doing stupid tourist shit on your time off from the wagecage. You people ruin every place you go by your greedy demanding nature.

Or go grocery shopping. Eating out in a country like Poland is stupid, particularly if you're solo. What's for dinner? Another $8 kebab burrito or $10 Asian fusion plate tossed together by sullen swarthoids. Yuck.

depends how much you want to slum it.
getting accommodation with a kitchen is great, tho you can MacGyver something wherever you go if not getting hot food

grocery stores, particularly near end of day will have expiring food.
travelling somewhere new enjoying the local food can be a big part of the experience but if you are in a new country even stuff from local shops can scratch this itch if you don't want restaurant all the time.

its not healthy but if you need cheap warm calories at a restaurant chips are almost always an option
