Starving Student Food Aid?!
Answers: Any ideas what could I put in a package for a starving vegetarian student in Leeds for her birthday?
packets of pasta, tinned or dried veggies, beans, peas, lentils, couscous, cocoa (who doesn't like cocoa?), teas, rice packets, spices, seasonings, or anything you could keep in dry storage would work. It can be tough to package and ship fresh foods.
I just thought of this, if there is a large market nearby (kroger stores here is a good example), they often offer gift cards that you can purchase online and have shipped anywhere. You could check to see if any of her local markets have that option.
But I think a more personalized package is the nicest gesture, so maybe have the card sent to you and put it in the package too. That way she gets a package of assorted dry goods you chose (we all love getting packages), but can still purchase the fresh stuff needed to make full meals.
Non-perishable food items such as crackers, peanut butter, boxes of macaroni and cheese, boxes of cereal or canned items such as green beans, corn, or vegetable broth based soups, perhaps some form of money order so they could buy food locally?
dried peas; assorted nuts, dried fruit
You could put:
~ crackers/peanut butter
~ pasta....yuummm
~ bagels
~ gift card to a grocery store
I hope I help!!!
Cereal- This gets boring, but you can live on it.Trust me.
Give her something really awful, like dog food
