24 hr road trip with toddler, what to pack for food?

Peanut Butter crackers, or sandwich, peanut er and banana sandwich, protein and fruit there, no sticky jelly to deal with, or use preserves such as strawberry and peanut er but bring along the wet wipes or hand sanitizer which you should anyway. Rice cakes come in many flavors and beat chips, small bite size ones are great for toddlers,You can usually find a variety of fruit already cut and ready to eat, like cantaloupe, gs, watermelon, strawberries, etc. or make your own w/ several fruits mixed together. We took the little cans of food that come in a microwaveable container (along with disposable dinnerware) that can be eaten right from the can or stop and most places will let you use their microwave for your child. There are many varieties like Chef Boy R Dee spaghetti, chicken and dumplings, beef stew, etc. Read the label for fat content etc... some are better than others.Milk of course and fruit juices, those w/ the straws are great. Take a container of water to rinse the milk cup out, a roll of paper towels and hand sanitizer for sticky fingers. You know what your child likes and what can easily be put in a small cooler. Good luck!
