Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
I don't usually eat breakfast and don't get hungry in the heat so I usually eat one meal a day in camp. In my 4 roos I've only eaten the $1 grilled cheese, once.
With all this talk, I'm thinking I may have to bring some extra $$ and sample a lot of the food.
My one trip to BFE in 5 Roo's was down Woodland Lane in the James Bond campsites. Although a twenty minute walk from Centeroo, it did have its own smaller Shakedown and pizza and other food vendors at the pod.

my fave foods at roo: falafel FROZEN LEMONADE = got me thru the heat - these things are awesome and I had the best chicken tortilla thing ever - it was HUGE 2 people could share that thing ;D
did anyone try the snocones last year right at the beginning of Shakedown? You could put your own syrup on em.
Sno-Cones are the best! When I was little I always wanted the blue "flavor" because it turned my tongue blue. Anyway, sno-cones sound like the greatest bonnaroo treat ever.

The lo mein wdas great!!! Alittle hot mustard and alot of joy. I hope the lo mein folks are back again this year. I ate at least 6 plate last year. If was like manna from heaven to sooth a bad case of the munchies. Karma to the lo mein people...lol
up near the little church last year there was this big red cart that sold homemade ice cream... i think i got to know the couple running it by the end of the weekend...
was that the cart that had the conveyor belt that the ice cream came out on? that was just a great setup overall and the food was awesome!!!

The food is officially located on Shakedown Street and in Centeroo (Vending is only allowed indesignated areas.) You can occassionally find an individual selling something but that's not the stuff listed in this thread.
From Camp Inforoo, food is fairly close. If you're in BFE, food, like everything else except water and bathrooms, is a distance away.
Of course if your going to be at Centeroo and the shows most of the time, food is very handy.
Nah man, I was in BFE last year, the James Bond-themed camps, and we had food stands right on our main road. The gyro stand was on the road right at the edge of our campsite area, and we made full use of it. There is most definitely food in BFE. 16-Inch hot dogs included.
EDIT: It appears that I am late, but the point should stand. Do not fear BFE!

I had sweet potato fries for the first time at the last festival i went to and have been looking for them ever since......I will definitley be eating some at Roo....YEEHAW!
The best thing i had all weedend was some corn on the cob thats slow roasted with its husks on I think it was $3 I cant remeber exactly where I got it but it was one of the side streets off of the main shakedown
the vendor food was good (you have to be a little selective) but the BEST food I had was from my neighbors who cooked too much. They kept doing it - Hamburgers, eggs & bacon in the AM, wraps w/ tuna and it was all free. I highly recommend camping next to them.

I'm starting to get an idea from this thread, but I have a question about food allergies.
I can't eat wheat anymore (no corndogs, funnel cakes, anything wrapped in flour tortillas or pita bread, no wheat noodles like lo mein, and saddest of all, no $1 grilled cheese ,etc.) That cuts out a large portion of my '04 'Roo diet, so will I have to bring all my own food, and risk food prep while not in my normal state of mind, or will I be able to eat decently at official and unofficial vendors?
We had amazing organic spring rolls that were $2 each across from the main medic tent where the choppers were landing last year. They were large and stuffed. Hope to find them this year.
any suggestions on making coffee, other than instant coffee?
I'm a coffee fiend, so I'm bringing two doodads, but they both require a camp stove.
The normal one is called a pour-over brewer. It's basically a little plastic thing that sits on a mug and holds a paper filter, you heat water on the stove and pour it through--works like a coffee maker, but manually.
The other one is called a moka pot, it makes something similar to espresso, by forcing boiling water up through a chamber full of grounds. I'm bringing it for cuban coffee.
Ive heard people walk through the camps selling baked goods and "special" baked goods in the mornings. At least my friend said in his camp a few people did it.
