Lunchboxes

[eleep]

I've been on the lookout for a really useful lunch kit since I've morphed into a person who carries massive quantities of food with her wherever she goes. I think I may have fallen in love with the Zojirushi Mr. Bento -- which is about $40 -- but gets rave reviews:

Does anyone else have a useful lunch kit suggestion?

My husband likes these kind of things(he's Japanese) and finds them useful. They come in a variety of prices and we've found that you get what you pay for. This one seems reasonably priced and comparable in price to what we've seen on the market. If it has good reviews, looks like a good choice. With some of the cheapo ones we've had problems with leaking and not keeping the foods at the proper temp.

Love the Lunch Jars!

Another suggestion, and a bit cheaper, is Laptop Lunches (bento-style lunch boxes):

The Mr. Bento looks very neat- I've never seen or heard of them before.

My children use a thermos brand stainless steel thermos for hot lunches. We also like the lock-and-lock brand containers for cold snack foods (we put a small ice pack in the lunch bag). The lock-and-lock brand containers come in a variety of shapes and sizes and they do not leak.

For beverages we like Nalgene brand drink bottles- they come in a couple of different sizes and do not leak.
