Cheapest 650mk Lunch Box Bento Box with a Green Bag / Made in Japan


Over All Rating Reviews :
This box held up well to travel, and it's latches seem to work well. The seal in the lid does it's job holding liquidy foods in even when tipped up on end or on it's side. The only complaint is that the little inner dividers don't go all the way up to touch the lid, which would be an awesome improvement for this series of bento boxes. (Also, as it turns out, the little bag can hold two of thses boxes stacked, so you can pack two lunches in one bag!)

Save Picnic Plus Savoy Insulated Lunch Tote, Raspberry Stripe


Over All Rating Reviews :
I have gone through a slew of lunch bags over the years and this one is by far, the very best! The bottom zipper compartment comes with it's own container which is perfect for your ice packs. Keep everything chilled and absolutely no mess. The top zipper compartment is very roomy. Easily holds lunch, snack and drink. Well worth the price....

Where To Buy Crocodile Creek's Solar System Lunchbox


Over All Rating Reviews :
My daughter is using this lunchbox for the 2nd year. It still looks new. The inside is white, not the gray/silver lined type which I read can sometimes contains lead. I feel that my child's lunch is safe and she is not picking up lead from the inside of the lunchbox. She really likes it and hasn't asked for a new one. She'll probably use it next year as well.

Cheapest Bento Buddies 2.0 Set of 4 Lidded Containers, Berry


Over All Rating Reviews :
I purchased 2 sets of the Bento Buddies 2.0 Containers for my son who is in Kindergarten. We have used them for about 5 weeks now and LOVE THEM!! They are very easy for him to open and close. I place them in his regular lunchbox and the square/rectangle shapes make it easy to fit everything. We actually haven't used the larger sandwich size yet b/c it's pretty big. Instead, I just cut his sandwich in half and place the 2 halves on top of each other in the next smaller size.

I love the fact that these containers make me stop and think about what I put in his lunchbox. I always put a fruit in one, a veggie in one, a dip or almonds in the smallest one, a sandwich in one, and then a snack in the last one (this is why I purchased TWO sets of the containers).

They are dishwasher safe and do NOT leak while in the lunchbox since all 4 containers come withe LIDS. I think you will be very happy with these containers :)

Where To Buy Princess : 6 Princess Lunch Box (Pink)


Over All Rating Reviews :
I wanted to love this lunch box. It's so cute, just the right size, and seems so durable. The only problem is that the light pink color stains very easily. My daughter has only been using it for 3 weeks and it already is dirty beyond saving. We'll finish out the school year and get something else for the fall. :(

What's For Lunch? Packing a Kid (And an Environmentally) Friendly Lunch

lunch box


Packing your child's lunch just got more complicated. The question of "what's for lunch?" has now been expanded to "what's your lunch packaging", as parents are faced with product safety issues, new school waste mandates and reducing their family's environmental footprint.

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation estimates that one student taking a disposable lunch to school each day will create 45 to 90 pounds of garbage per year.

In an effort to teach children about the environmental impact of their food and beverage choices, and focus on reducing, recycling, and reusing to avoid waste, many schools are committed to reducing waste on campus. One method is to encourage parents to pack a "waste-free" lunch. This means everything in your child's lunchbox is reusable or consumable. Schools such as Marin Primary School in Marin, California, are not only recycling and composting, but they have done away with plastic utensils, cups, and plates by washing reusable plates that the children have made themselves.

Local children's cloth napkin company, Fabkins, is working with schools to provide children's size napkins for fundraisers, classroom party baskets, and lunchrooms throughout the country. While Kids Konserve offers stainless steel food containers, sandwich wraps and safe party ware for kids' lunches and celebrations.

The number of children's product recalls due to lead paint, poor plastics, and PVC have increased dramatically. Luckily there is a big "green" market to fill the void of safe products, when it comes to lunchboxes and food Storage. There are many fun and colorful lead-free, old-fashioned metal lunchboxes as well as soft PVC- and lead-free lunch totes that children can choose from. Allowing your child to choose is important so your child is proud of his lunchbox and excited to see and eat what's inside.

To deal with portion control and eliminate the waste of plastic bags, sandwich wrap, and waxed paper is with a lunchbox system. These are composed of a set of safe plastic boxes arranged in a larger box, like that of a traditional Japanese bento box. These boxes are easy for parents to pack and determine an appropriate size portion for your child. It is also easy for children to pack and clean up, as the pieces fit snugly together as a puzzle. Preschool teacher Joanne Haight advises parents to pack foods for school in containers that keep food fresh and safe but are also child friendly to open. She says especially for preschool age children, that self help is just as important as what they are eating.

These green on-the-go tips work for all ages and venues, whether they're headed to school, daycare, or a family outing.

Keep perishables cold in insulated lunch bags. There are many PVC- and lead-free choices. Rather than using an ice pack you can freeze items such as yogurt or water, which will thaw and be ready by mealtime.

Pack food, drink and soups in reusable, non-plastic containers and thermos bottles. Containers made from stainless steel and aluminum reduces waste and concern of leaching of toxins such as Bisphenol A, which is linked to birth defects, miscarriage, and prostate cancer.

Wrap sandwiches in reusable sandwich wraps, such as by Wrap-n-Mat. Opt for foil over plastic wrap and baggies. Unlike waxed paper and plastic wrap, aluminum foil is available in 100 percent recycled form, is recyclable in most areas, withstands heat and cold, and works better than plastic and waxed paper at keeping moisture in. Aluminum is also oil free and is not made from petroleum, the way that wax and plastic are. Reduce landfill waste by eliminating plastic bag use, as they can last up to 1,000 years.

Provide metal or ceramic utensils that can be reused and washed. Just remind your child to bring them home. Or provide bamboo renewable and biodegradable forks and spoons, rather than plastic.

Include a Reusable Cloth Napkin. Whether it's a regular size, cocktail or child cloth napkin these absorb well and help reduce paper waste.

Buying Picnic Plus Savoy Insulated Lunch Tote, Raspberry Stripe


Over All Rating Reviews :
I got this lunch tote in paisley and it is very pretty and bright. The design of the tote is a good one; I like the hard plastic container in the bottom compartment because it is the perfect size for a cool-pak and sandwich with room to spare, and the top part is roomy enough for a beverage, snacks and silverware. I live in Texas and work in an office and this tote keeps my lunch cool until lunchtime without having to put it in the office fridge, which is just what I wanted. Picnic Plus Savoy Insulated Lunch Tote, Green Paisley

(I bought the Built brand lunch tote on a previous order Built LB31-FVE Gourmet Getaway Lunch Tote, French Bull Vine Pattern and found that it does not keep my lunch as cold for as long as this tote does. I like the Savoy.)

Order Laptop Lunch B630 Bento System 2.0, Passion Pink


Over All Rating Reviews :
I was so excited about getting this lunch box for my daughter and was sadly disappointed when it arrived.
There was not one thing that we didn't like in a big way.... it was a bunch of little things.
It's quite large (the carrying tote)
The main clasp on the outer plastic container (not the tote) is hard to open and yet also didn't give me any confidence that over time, it would stay closed.
Two of the small inside containers do not come with lids (it does show this in the photo - I guess I assumed they would come with lids) which seems odd.
The small ones with lids are a bit of a challenge to get open for little hands.

I'm sure it is a system that might work for others but for us, it just wasn't what we hoped it would be.

Best Buy LunchBots Duo Stainless Steel Lunch Box/Food Container


Over All Rating Reviews :
These are well made enough and no doubt will hold up for a long time. However, I like to be able to see through the container-which you cannot with these. I also like to microwave my hot meals and you cannot do this with the metal containers. The divided one is rather small and you cannot remove the divider. Another minor annoyance: they also make a lot of noise banging together in the lunchbox as you walk if you do not put something between them. (I also carry cans of pop, which makes a lot of metal banging around) I know plastic has its drawbacks, but that is my personal preference.

Zojirushi SL-JAE14 Mr. Bento Stainless Steel Lunch Jar Top Quality


Over All Rating Reviews :
Unlike many reviewers for this product, I'm a dedicated bring-your-own lunch person -- I've been making my own lunches since college. I used to bring lunch in a Ziploc bag or sealed plastic container, and for a while I had a lightly-insulated soft lunch"box". Usually I didn't have trouble, but sometimes things would leak or get squashed. When I started riding my bike to work and going all over the place on public transit, I really wanted something that would never leak out of its container, and would be easy to carry in a backpack or by hand. I also needed something that would hold quite a bit of food because I tend to get hungry in the afternoon and eating work-supplied popcorn and soda is not how I want to get my calories.

So far I've been very happy with the Mr. Bento container. It's easy to carry -- it fits right into my backpack, which my lunchbox and many plastic containers were a bit too wide for. I can also easily carry it in hand if I am walking from the train to work -- it is not uncomfortably heavy. It holds enough food for a big lunch and a snack. I've packed soup several times, as well as foods with some liquid (like fruit cobbler -- yum!) in the smaller side containers, and everything stays clean and inside the container. A bagel even fits whole into the main container and makes a great side with soup.

I tried the insulating properties the first day that I used it and wasn't incredibly impressed. My soup was still quite warm but not hot and other containers were not that warm. However, it's possible that I just did not prepare the jar or the food properly. Since I am pressed for time in the morning, but not at lunchtime, and I have access to a microwave, I usually just heat my food at work, and haven't tried the insulation since then. I don't microwave food in the bowls, although it says you can if you leave the lids off, because I have had bad luck in the past with various plastic containers getting a little "cooked" (crisp and bubbly) in the microwave, so I just don't heat stuff in plastic anymore. We have plenty of bowls at work, luckily.

An unforeseen benefit is that I am getting excited about packing my lunches again. When I started out making my lunch I put more work into it, but I got bored after a while and started just grabbing some leftovers and maybe some fruit for work, or just a sandwich and fruit. Now I am willing to get up a little earlier and cut up fruit or veggies and prepare something for the side, so I get more variety, which also means I am more satisfied and better nourished. I love to unpack my lunch and look at all my food before I settle down to eat. I am excited about learning to do some true bento-style lunches in the future too, and maybe even using it for breakfast on the go!

I highly recommend this lunchbox for anyone who's serious about bringing lunch to work or school, and especially anyone who already does, but wants to make lunch fun again. I would have given it five stars except for three things:

- The soup container is too small and there is no other option for something that's mostly liquid. I sometimes like a lot of soup at lunchtime and I can't do that with this box.
- The temperature maintenance did not impress me right away.
- The containers are not dishwasher safe. This doesn't matter to me since I don't have a dishwasher, but it is a big deal for a lot of people.
[Update 11/20/06] - The metallic finish on the outside of the jar is "painted" and can be scratched. This just happened to me recently and I wish they had just left it plain; I am worried now that all the paint will peel off. But this is purely cosmetic.
[Update 12/20/07] - No more scratches have appeared un the finish, and I am still using and loving my Mr. Bento nearly every day. However, I have gotten a bit bored of making lunch again!

But overall, it is a quality product and excellent way to bring satisfying lunches with you when you travel. I am still loving it and using it nearly every day more than a month after the original review date. Friends I have given it to as a gift have also raved about it!

Where To Buy Laptop Lunch Bento Set 2.0


Over All Rating Reviews :
We love this lunch box! We originally got it for our 2 year old son to take to preschool, but it's so great that I'm buying 2 more for my husband and I as well! It's great for portioning your meals and I personally think it's plenty of room, but I've heard others say it's too small. You do have to get creative with the way you pack your lunch, but at the same time I think it makes you more conscious of how much you really need to eat in the first place! It fit's perfectly into the zip-up lunch bag that we got for our son, just make sure you check the measurements to see that it will fit in the bag. Very pleased. It even comes with silverware!
Only thing...I would suggest also buying some extra bento buddies (which are different sized inserts) so you can keep your packing options open. The extra lids may come in handy as well, as this one only comes with 3 lids.
