The last time was 30 years ago. The best food is something that flies can't land on. Wrapped hamburgers are great since you can eat them while mostly wrapped. If a fly hits, it hits the wrapper. Also foods that don't spoil quickly.

Must've been around 60 years ago I had a sandwich at a park table maybe 10 years ago. I was alone though so I can't say it was a picnic

Assorted sandwiches, coleslaw, potato salad.
Carrot and celery sticks , freshly made muffins, Perrier water with lime wedges.
Our last picnic was last week. Our dogs love picnics too.

I love that song. I can remember singing it as a young child. As a family we used to go to my father's railway picnic once a year in December. I can remember my father doing a handstand for his 50th birthday. I still have the photo. He was our hero.

When it gets hot I like the old fashioned picnic foods like cold sliced ham, fried chicken or thin slices of cold meatloaf with a potato salad, deviled eggs, cucumber and onion or tomato salad and some great bread or rolls, washed down with a big pitcher of unsweetened iced tea. For dessert some walnut studded brownies and an ice cold watermelon wouldn't hurt!

International Picinic Day - Does that only count in the northern hemisphere? Here in Australia my computer says its World Tapas Day.

A cold tapas picnic from the local supermarket sounds good to me!
