I guess I am too used to camping with kids (3-7) and dry ice is avoided. Also, when traditional ice is used and it melts, you don't drain the water - it helps to keep things cooler and for longer than if you do drain it.
I've never had problems with food going bad using a cooler and standard ice. We tend to have separate coolers for drinks (opened frequently) and food (opened infrequently).
