mmm mmm Lunchables

Keeping in the spirit of  back to school, I've decided to talk about lunches. What do you like to pack your precious little's lunchbox with? Do you go healthy, organic, clean? Or do you tend to sway the other direction?

I tend to stay with easy. The easier the better!!! My kids absolutely LOVE Lunchable's! Who ever thought of this idea was a genius, right?! My middle son would eat a Lunchable for breakfast, lunch and dinner, if I left him, and I may have let him once or twice...shhhh!

What I like about the Lunchable.

   1. Convenient :  I mean seriously, it doesn't get any easier, all you have to do is head to your favorite grocery store, wamart, target, heck they are even selling them in local gas stations. Grab your childs favorite flavor. Pizza (pepperoni, no pepperoni), ham and cheese, turkey and cheese, hot dog, cheeseburger etc...

   2. Easy: You don't even have to pack another thing. Just stick the box in the lunchbox and go. It has everything, main meal, drink and desert. BAM!!

   3. Price: Reasonably priced. If you can grab it on sale or even with a coupon, it's cheaper then school lunch and I'm sure the kids like it better than nasty school lunches. I just grabbed 2 for $5 at my local store and at check out a Catalina coupon printed for $1.50 for 5. (which I will be cashing in on).

What I don't like about the Lunchable:

    1. Desert variety: The fact that if you want the ham and cheese you have to have a peanut butter cup. This poses a problem with children with peanut allergies, like my youngest. Ham and cheese is a very common lunch for kids, so my son would love to get the ham and cheese, but  he is allergic to peanut butter cups, he either chooses another Lunchable or I buy the ham and cheese and then go buy a bag of miniature candy bars and have to swap out the candy. This my friends is a problem!!

I mean come on kraft foods, lets get with the "peanut allergy" program!


In conclusion, I do recommend Lunchables for your little, but not the ham and cheese if your little is allergic to peanut butter
