    Oatmeal

    Tahini (you can dip your pita in there)

    Beans, canned or dried if you’re able to cook. Lentils also.

    Chia seeds - some bags say to refrigerate them but as long as you’re not letting them sit there for a long time you’ll be fine. Same goes for tahini actually.

    Nuts and seeds

    Could also get other breads or maybe corn tortillas or something

    Edit: I suppose by no heating element you mean you can’t cook. So with the oats you’d probably have to get old fashioned oats and do overnight oats or something just using water. Canned beans don’t need to be cooked so you can use those.

    Edit 2: ugh I actually don’t know if the overnight oats would work. Everyone I know who makes them uses a fridge. You can eat old fashioned oats “raw” though, since they’re not actually raw but they’ve been steamed. A little weird though. Though you could make a cereal with them or something, like muesli. Actually they sell packaged muesli in the store, that might be a good thing to try, and you could get oats that way. I love getting a box of Alpen.

    I agree with you and I’ll take it one step further - I don’t like most grunge.

    I think the problem for me is grunge takes a lot of influence from hard rock and heavy metal, two genres I’ve never been big on. A lot of grunge bands are just too close to hard rock for me. I absolutely hear it in Eddie Vedder’s vocals. Maybe it’s something similar for you. You might try listening to some Pearl Jam precursors - Green River is a grunge band I really like. Temple of the Dog I never really listened to but they have that one cool song Hunger Strike. There’s also Mother Love Bone but I’ve never really listened to them.

    You may also be reacting to the slew of derivative Pearl Jam copycats that popped up in the wake of the grunge explosion. Post-grunge is a genre that’s generally looked down upon, and I think a lot of those guys copied a lot from Eddie Vedder’s vocal style. It might be a case of you being more familiar with the derivative knock-off bands that Pearl Jam spawned, and only being able to hear those bands when you listen to Pearl Jam.
