I am forced to commute 40 miles for every day for work and so I end up eating a lot of meals on the road. This is certainly not my favorite habit but it's just a fact of the matter and so I'm dealing with it in the best way I can, which is to try to find the least evil food that's available to me. I've compiled a list of cheap, partially healthy foods that can be found on nearly any road trip in the US. I say partially or semi healthy because this is really just going for less of the bad things like sodium and fat and doesn't really address adding nutrition.

I like to snowboard but I don't go on many trips because they're usually expensive and I have to fly to the good mountains. I'm at a loss for what to do that's fun during the winter. There are always games and movies and such for indoor entertainment but other than going to bars, what else is good to avoid the winter blues?
