Please keep in mind that all food items must be in the manufacturer’s original packaging.
NO chocolate - 110 degree heat and chocolate do not mix well, though M&M’s are fine.
Use Ziploc bags to make sure that potentially leaky items don’t make a mess during shipping, and service members use them to keep sand out of their things while in the desert.
