About this tool
Picnics need enough food without a car full of leftovers. This planner works out sandwiches, drinks, and snacks from adult and child counts, counting children at about two-thirds of an adult portion. Pack food in a cool bag and keep it shaded.
Frequently asked questions
Why count children as two-thirds?
It is a planning average. Younger children eat less and older ones eat more, so adjust for the actual group.
How do I keep picnic food safe?
Use a cool bag with ice packs, keep food shaded, and do not leave perishable food out for hours.
