I'm going to be camping for 4 days at a location without easy access to fire (hence no boiled water). As such, I'm going to be packing a bunch of canned stuff for my daily meals. The place is in England, where we're expecting a few hot days this week and maybe some rain over the weekend.

However, I have some free time before the trip to cook food. But I'm not sure if there's any good foods I could bring along that could keep for 3-4 days without a fridge. I guess that crosses out most meat dishes.

Some ideas I had were: falafel, fritters, bread, calzones, pasties. Have you tried taking such foods camping and if so, did they last a few days without spoiling? Are there any other foods you'd recommend? Thank you so much!

There's loads of hiking/camping shops here. Mountain Warehouse, Go Outdoors, Black's... OP has plenty of options if they want to pick up a stove.

Yeah, I figured they have options, I'm just not sure exactly what they are with different countries having different regulations and standards, like I kind of suspect that 1lb propane tanks may not be as common in areas that use the metric system, and I don't know what the closest equivalent would be if there is one, though I suppose if anywhere is going to measure propane in pounds outside of North America it would probably be the UK. I could also see some places banning or restricting things like white gas or esbit tablets for one reason or another, and of course different countries having different terms for things.
