Top 10 Foods for Travel Emergencies

When a drugstore isn’t within easy reach, here are the top 10 common foods that can solve unexpected travel emergencies. 

1. Coca-Cola
Use it to take the pain out of a wasp sting, but never a bee sting.

2. Vinegar
If stung by a jellyfish, douse the wound in vinegar and rinse with salt water. Never use alcohol or fresh water, which will only make the stinging worse. 

3. Tomatoes
In case you forgot bug spray, use tomato slices to prevent itching and swelling caused by insect bites by simply putting a slice on the affected area. Tomato sauce can also be used to take out the tinge of green caused by chlorine-laden pools and two cups of tomato juice in a bath will eliminate strong body odors.
