During my freshman year of college, I decided to take a job at a nearby private elementary school. Every Friday I joined the “after care” students from lunch until six p.m. The students who were not able to take advantage of the half day Fridays were required to bring their own lunch, and thus began my introduction to Lunchables!
When my daughter took a look at her Lunchables, she jumped for joy and giggled with glee…especially at the pizza. In reality, she asks me to disassemble the kits, make her sandwiches for her ahead of time, and she sometimes likes me to use cheese from our refrigerator. Regardless of Emma’s unique way of eating Lunchables, she certainly enjoys them, and I feel great about the wholesome choices available to us. Would it be a better time-saving option if she actually made her own Lunchables lunches at school like the rest of the kids? Sure! But I have to admit…it’s nice to finally be able to stack my own cheese and cracker Lunchables sandwich after all those years…
