How many times have you been in this predicament? You wake up in the morning to make your child's (or husband's) lunch, we're out of baggies, that's okay we'll use a plastic container, but where are the lids??? When you finally find the lids and get the lunch packed you realize the container is too big for the lunch box. And now you're late getting out the door. Fantastic isn't it?
Well with the Easy Lunch Box you don't have to worry about that anymore. You can get a set of containers with a compartment for a sandwich and two smaller compartments for snacks. They come with colored lids (easy to find in a cabinet), and they fit perfectly in the lunch box which you can also buy on their site. PERFECT for your back to school lunch box.
They didn't work for Bob though, ONLY because he eats many times a day to keep up with his macronutrients. He would have needed to take three containers plus a can of green beans and a container of rice. It just wouldn't all fit in the lunch box. The strap is a little tight for a grown man, but I think would work great for a child. Bob also suggests that the containers would be better suited for an adult or older child if they were open instead of having compartments.
I haven't gotten the luxury of trying the lunch system out, but I did get the "luxury" of washing it. The containers come clean very easily and so far I haven't noticed that lingering smell I get from my other plastic containers.

If I had school age kids I would buy this lunch system for them. As a mom that *tries* to eat healthy I expect my kids to follow suit and lunches from home will be a given. I recommend this system to anyone with school age children and even those of you who don't need to take 4 meals to work with you. I would like to apologize for the lack of photos for your viewing pleasure, but it seems my camera cord has grown legs with the help of a blue eyed toddler.
So now on to the fun stuff!!!
