FOOD LUGGAGE

So my plastic Target bag is not hip and stylish enough to carry my lunch to work in? No!



I remember having at least 3 lunch boxes growing up prior to graduating to a brown paper bag.  


  1. I had this huge purple box which resemble in a way, an igloo cooler that people take on picnics and to amusement parks like Great America!  That was way too big for a little petite 5th grader like me.
  2. There there was my red Mickey Mouse steel or tin lunch box.  Looking back it could probably be considered some vintage type piece.  I should have kept it, shoot!
  3. Lastly, had this green polyester-ish material lunch bag, and since lunch bags weren't as sophisticated as they are now, this bag allowed seepage of condensation and things just soaked through the bag sometimes - yeah I don't know what that was about.  
Now the brown paper bag, I liked.  Not cost effective, but cool in my opinion.   Once I was done, I threw it away, no extra baggage to carry around.  Some lunch boxes/bags were so bulky that it was impossible to fit it into my backpack!  I don't like to lug around too much stuff, I didn't then and I don't now.  Now, if you ask my mom how cool it was to buy brown paper lunch bags each month, and she may tell disspell my cool theory. 

What I do now - I always end up with a random plastic bag, or better yet, I just throw my food in my over sized purse!  Which means I risk having a smashed sandwich.
