Meal Plan Details:
At Camp Contact at Burning Man, campers work together to make meals for lunch and dinner during Burn week. Menus are selected by building a set of recipes that will be made by a pod of campers for a given meal. There's a lead chef who arranges for food to be purchased to support making a meal.
