OK ATS, this is driving me insane right now.
A typical lunch option for either of my kids right now includes;
A sandwich (meat such as ham, salami or devon/fritz with cheese and sometimes tomato or cucumber),
Two kinds of fruit, usually a banana, kiwi fruit or a combination of grapes and strawberries,
and general assorted "munchie" lines, such as small packets of Shapes biscuits, fruit bars or muesli bars and dairy lines such as small yoghurts and
cheese sticks.
The fruit? No problem, always a winner, just swap it out a bit for something different now and then.
The munchie stuff? Same deal, although fruit bars are more often left than not.
Put a sandwich in there? Almost every day I come home to find the contents of said sandwich done and dusted, with bread and often vegetable filler
left to stagnate in the bottom of the lunchbox.
I've tried salads, beefing up the sandwiches with all kinds of filler, up to and including chicken schnitzel and steak sandwiches, tried swapping
bread for rolls and wraps, same deal. I'm a huge advocate of not letting food go to waste, so to see these mangled lunch leftovers silently degrading
at the end of the day breaks my heart (not to mention my wallet).
Go for it ATS foodies. Time for your daily bread (or lack thereof)....
