Interesting. I have to say that I can't relate though. Do you take food for the whole tour or something? I could see that if you are talking about very short tours that start from home or if you will be in such a remote area that there are no stores at all, but otherwise why not just buy food daily or every few days in more remote areas?
I typically start with no food other than maybe a couple power bars, cliff bars, or whatever to hold me over until I pass a store. I guess that I might actually come home with more than I left with in some cases but that would be because I started with nothing and finished with almost nothing.
