This bento is a disposable bento lunch. Nico was going on a field trip and wanted to take his lunch with him instead of having a generic cafeteria lunch bag. The rule was that it had to be disposable. Here's what I did!
I took a strawberry container, washed it and peeled off all of the stickers. Ta dah! That's it. Seriously, that is all I did for the box.
Here is the low down on what was INSIDE the box: PB & J homemade "uncrustable", penguin crackers, fruit & nut miniature granola bar, strawberry fruit roll-up, a mini box of Milk Duds and a small juice box. I also was seriously lacking in the veggie department. o_O
Now for the confession, I absolutely can't stand to see all of this plastic baggies in one box. It bugs me to no end! It's not earth-friendly and frankly the food is harder to access. However the strawberry container is full of open holes. Any suggestions for another totally disposable way to send a bento?
I keep trying to come up with something else, but I also keep getting stuck :(
ReplyDeleteI think that I have found another way! You know the plastic ishes you get when you order a fast food salad? Usually they have a bottom and a lid that fits tight. I'm gonna try one of those next field trip.
