What about a home made trail mix that doesn't contain your food allergens, fruit, and any vegetable that might keep well without refrigeration?

My husband or other friend that knows all about my food allergies typically goes with me when I travel and makes sure I have the foods I need by shopping for them while I am at an event. My disabilities make shopping and traveling alone impossible.
