Any Bento Lunch Box Nerd Mummies?

The thing I love also is it cuts out the packaging. I hate using ziplock bags and plastic bags.

Yep, this is why I brought these for my kids.

Ange - It had something to do with available fridge space and keeping the food at the correct temperatures etc - so basically safe food handling. They are a local council owned and operated centre, and they had an inspection not long ago.

My DS's lunch box has quite a few compartments too (I think it's a Sistema) and everyday I have to put something in each and every one. Babybels are a favourite here too... as are Boost snacks, Sao crackers with vegemite and cheese, and of course a sandwich (the most common being deli chicken, lettuce, cheese and mayo on light rye)... he also likes smoked salmon, Philly cheese and lettuce but we can't afford that very often. I'm looking forward to some more inspiration! DH is a huge traditional Bento box fan (there's a good place near the GPO in the CBD) and I had a wonderful Bento last weekend when I was out and about by myself. Such a wonderfully aesthetic, healthy and yummy lunch!

Were you able to load the photos today? I've been struggling to get the Gallery to work for several days now (uploading and deleting).... but off to check out your piccys now! ETA: ahhhh, you used another host site

I used to do this for myself years ago. I had a great decore container, it had 5 compartments, 4 around the edge and 1 small in the middle. Not sure where it is now ;(, but I did pick up the one you have Nilaic the other day as I thought it would be handy.

Just thinking it might be good for us to take for out and about lunches so we don't have to buy.

Anyone have any new ideas?
