We have a small self contained camper. We provide coffee and decaf coffee (ground coffee not instant) , herbal and regular teas, hot chocolate, soy, almond and cows' milk, canned sparkling juice, butter, margarine, jams, maple syrup, pancake mix, English muffins, eggs, microwave popcorn, instant oatmeal and some shelf stable packages of precooked rice and canned beans.
A hungry traveler could make themselves a good meal if they wanted to. If they were on a budget they could eat supper and a nice breakfast for free.
I would say that once stocked we spend only $2 to $3 per guest to replenish some of the food. The milks and drinks are all shelf stable and once opened, if no guests are expected, we take any leftovers to our home to use them up. The guests have to cook for themselves and clean up after themselves. Some eat/drink everything and others don't. I feel really good about opening the fridge and cupboards and showing them what is available. They are pleased and impressed.
If they don't partake I just figure they have different dietary requirements or preferences. I don't worry about it.
