That's a fascinating question! Sam had a lot of time in Rivendell to think about the journey, and I'll bet he made sure there was plenty of dried goods along (flour, beans, dried fruits and berries, salted meats, some honey, tea, oatmeal) to supplement whatever Aragorn and Legolas could catch for them, and fresh greens, wild onions, etc. they could gather. When the hobbits and Aragorn met Glorfindel on the Road to Rivendell, and all they had left was stale bread and dried fruit, I'll bet Sam promised himself that Mr. Frodo was never going to go hungry again if he could help it. Some types of jerky and pemmican are great ideas, and fruits/berries/greens are essential if scurvy is to be prevented.

I don't know of any websites, but if I come across anything I'll let you know!
