With enough oils and vinegar that won't go bad and will actually taste better at room temperature.

ETA: Or with just olives and maybe carrots, minus the meat. A few chunks of parmesan will hold up well, since cheese is the original food of no refrigeration required.

Wax covered mini-cheeses like "Baby-bel" cheese, which is some yummy cheese in wax doesn't need refrigeration, and can satisfy a more epicurean taste

Delicious cheese.

This explains why. It's a raving lunatic site, but has sound science behind it.
