School lunch question What do you ladies do to keep the sandwiches and food from going bad? Of course I'm specifically…

? following ?

Trying to be an overachiever which homemade well packed lunches? Pssh that's what chips and oreos are for, throw some gummy fruit snacks in if you want to go a little healthier. ?

They make special ice packs for lunches.

I freeze their juice boxes and then put them in the kids lunches and they thaw by lunchtime

I add something frozen. Usually a fruit cup, grapes, gogert. I'm cheap so if I'm not sending frozen foods, it's a disposable plastic water bottle I just refill at night.

Thanks creep! That's a great link.

Thank you ladies for your suggestions ?

Freezer pack. And frozen yogurt.

I'm asking because my husband was suggesting that the food would not go bad in 4 hours. I wouldn't want to take that risk with his health.

I'm going to freeze his water and use that

Is it weird that I'm considering breast milk bags? They freeze flat and I can fill it with water. Her lunchbox can only take a flat ice pack with the Bento box inside.

Lol hopefully her teacher thinks the same thing! ?

There's lots of ideas on Pinterest too. I always pack my daughters lunch bc school lunch at her school is $4.50 per day. ??
