Traveling? Take Step One With You!

If you’ve ever set foot on an airplane, you know your food choices at 30,000 feet are far from optimal. (Remember my encounter with Cheez-Its?).The good news is that it’s easy to take Step One with you. In fact, this is exactly why we worked so hard to find the best ingredients that could be packaged without being processed -- to make it easy for you!

Why Step One Foods Are Perfect For Travel

Our foods were designed to make heart-healthy eating convenient, no matter where you are. That’s why we carefully source ingredients that are nutrient-dense and require no refrigeration—perfect for travel days that don’t go according to plan.

Whether you’re catching a flight, packing for a road trip, or heading out on an extended vacation, Step One makes it easy to stick with your cholesterol-lowering routine.

TSA-Friendly Snacks for Air Travel

Yes, you can take Step One Foods through airport security! All of our products—including our bars, pancakes, and oatmeal—are TSA-compliant. Just be sure not to mix up a smoothie beforehand (liquids over 3.4 ounces will get flagged).

A few pro tips:

• You can pack as many Step One Cherry Pecan Bars or Dark Chocolate Crunch Bars in your carry-on as you like.

• Larger quantities may trigger a quick bag check, but a cheerful explanation like “These help me control my cholesterol naturally—want a bite?” usually smooths the process.

• Once you're cruising at 30,000 feet and the snack cart rolls by, you’ll be glad you brought something nourishing with you.

Packing Step One in Checked Luggage

Our products are sturdy enough to handle baggage handling at any airport, so feel free to stash extra oatmeal cups or bars in your checked bag. That way, you’ll be stocked up when you land.

Ship Step One Foods To Your Destination 

Staying somewhere longer-term? We can ship directly to your destination! Just update your shipping address at checkout or within your Step One subscription account (subscribers save 20% on every order!). Most hotels will gladly accept packages—just confirm with the front desk in advance and include your full name on the label.

Need help updating your shipping info? Contact our Customer Support team and we’ll be happy to help.

Road Trip? Bring These, Too.

If you’re driving to your destination, stock your cooler with fresh fruits and vegetables to pair with your Step One Foods. It may seem like a hassle, but when your only options are convenience stores and fast food, you’ll be grateful for those crisp apples or carrot sticks.

Enjoy the Journey - And the Meal 

Finally, remember that travel and holidays make up only a small part of your year. You don’t need to "save up" for special meals or restrict your usual healthy routine.

Eat your normal breakfast (maybe whip up a batch of Whole Oats Pancakes for your hosts), then enjoy your celebrations guilt-free. After all, Step One is here to help you build heart-healthy habits that are consistent and sustainable—no matter where life takes you.
