Do you use a brown bag, or do you have an actual lunchbox? Is it insulated? How much food do you bring, and what types of food?

Thanks in advance, I’m super interested by this type of relatively mundane stuff.

For myself I usually bring some kind of sandwich in a paper bag, nuts/dried fruit in the bags they come in from the store, and tea in a thermos. All of those things in my backpack.

    I have stainless containers with silicone lids. Turkey sandwich with cranberry goat cheese on ciabatta and a side of cheese crackers, and something like a rice krispie treat for a late afternoon snack.

    I can’t remember how long I’ve been eating that, but it’s simple and I haven’t grown tired of it. My wife makes it for me, and I make her a nice fancy coffee every morning in exchange.

      I’d love to swap lunches with several here. I can offer Norwegian matpakke in trade.

        I’d trade for matpakke. You guys look to have a lot of ingredients we don’t get here in the US like all kinds of cheeses, pate, that caviar in a tube, different breads, etc. A lot of pics had cucumber in them though. I have yet to find any form of cucumber I enjoy, so skip that and we have a deal.

        These are the little containers I have, but my lids are orange.

            I think those are either a new addition or AI. Mine came empty, likely for the better. Plus those strawberries look very small.

        It’s honestly really good! And all Aldi ingredients, so it’s cheap. Was even better when I was working from home, as I could warm it in the toaster oven!
