Great Tips – Question. I have teenagers. They WILL NOT use lunchboxes or reusables. As for packing then, baggies or tinfoil? Wax paper?

My first grader loves the packaging that can be reused – but the big kids are embarrassed enough that they don’t get “lunchables”. !!

I’m dealing with this and my daughter right now. Last year in kindergarten, she ate vegetables just fine in her lunch box. This year she won’t touch them. It’s not a taste change, as it’s favorites she still wolfs down at home, like cucumbers and bell peppers. It’s that she has noticed that none of the other kids bring vegetables, and she’s afraid they will say something to her, even though she admits no one has said anything yet.

I’m working on it, though. Last year pasta salads worked great. I cooked the pasta up and kept it in the fridge, with just a touch of dressing to keep the noodles from sticking, then each morning I could throw in whatever came to mind. I think a repeat of this might help the veggie aversion, even if I have to cut them smaller.
