>>2242180I always bring a Trangia on longer camping excursions (and back when I was pseudo-homeless, backpacking around the world in my late teens and stretching my budget by sleeping outside), because it's a complete system that actually allows you to prepare a full "real" meal and gives you the comfort of feeling a bit civilized when doing so. Does run on alcohol but imho, if I was homeless I'd swallow that cost for the comfort it brings you. Being able to cook properly is such a morale game changer when you're cold, wet and miserable.
