Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Any hardworking cowboys/ranch hands care to help a lady out?),it will help you,my kids.
My 17yr old daughter is planning to help bail hay this wknd. There will be a lot of people (15-20) there helping. Mostly hugh school kids.
We have been having 85-90 degrees days with high humidity here in Ohio. The bails are expected to be about 90 lbs each.. and they are hoping to get over 1000 bails from this field! This is the 1st time they have harvested this field as they just purchased it last year.
I have a large water cooler (like the kind they have at football games) I plan on filling with ice and water, and "mama" is making food to feed the masses. I would like to help out too.
Any ideas on something I could take out. Pies, lunch meats, corn chips/salsa, watermelon etc. Should I get one of those drink mixes that has electrolites in it for the water cooler thingy? I need ideas for things that will keep in the heat and not sit heavy on thier stomachs.
Thank you in advance.
Answer:
First, most of those electrolyte drink mixes are just hype and they contain too much sodium, which makes people thirstier. Ice water is best.
Chips and salsa are light enough, and can stand a warm day, but stay away from cheese dips (heavy and is dairy, which you don't want to expose to too much warmth).
I would also stay away from lunch meats if sandwiches will stay out in the heat for a while. If you are making them, refrigerating them, and transporting the sandwiches directly to a place where they'll be eaten right there and then, you're fine. If not, opt for PB&J.
Carrot sticks with something like a honey-mustard dip is good. Once again, stay away from sour cream dips unless they will be consumed almost immediately. What you don't want is for your kids to come back two hours later and dig into something warmed up like that, which is now a hotbed of salmonella.
Fried chicken is good if either prepared in advance and kept cold, or picked up from KFC and doled out when hot. This must also be eaten quickly. Salmonella again. If you get chicken from some outlet, stick to chicken only. Avoid the sides, because you'll need plastic flatware to eat them, and that makes it more mess to clean up.
Watermelon... sticky, a bit sloppy when sliced. It is fine for poolside, but if you're out in the field you'll just get sticky and dusty. Just say no :)
Other good snacks... cereal bars. Those peanut butter and cracker snacks.
Pretty much all I've mentioned are hand-held foods that don't require any kind of utensils. This makes cleaning easier. You'll just need plastic cups and napkins/paper towels, both of which will fit into a single trash bag. The rest of it (food leftovers and packaging) will fit into another. Note that none of the foods I've listed are particularly heavy.
For 20 people, you're going to want about a gallon of water per person if they'll be working under the sun for several hours. One gallon of water is 8.34 pounds. Twenty gallons is 166.8 pounds, not including the coolers. Make it 175. By the way, those coolers you see at football games are ten gallons. You'll need two.
make hotdogs and nachos and have different assorments of drinks like punch cola lemonade water etc...
I have haul and loaded tons of hay. Be careful what you feed the kiddos. Heat & Hard work can make the kids sick if they eat to much or "heavy" food. Cool or Cold foods work best. We always stuck to sandwiches & chips. Tons of water and Gatorade is a good idea. An Ice Cold Watermelon would be great too.
The kids also need to wear hats and sunblock. Do not forget long sleeves if they are allergic to grass and or the hay.
