Ideas for SACK LUNCHES??!
Answers: I'm looking for ideas of food that is NOT crunchy (loud when you eat it) and NOT messy. So, food that's soft and 'clean'. If it's a little messy or crunchy, that's ok. But do you have any ideas besides pb and j or apple sauce??
Canned fruit like peaches or fruit coctail.
Ham and cheese sandwich.
Turkey sandwich.
Yogurt.
Banana.
Cookies.
Poptarts.
Broccoli and dip or ranch dressing.
bagels
cheez whiz on a stick
A baloney sandwich and a nanner.
granola bars
Baked Potato
Bagels.
Wraps are great.
Salad...although that can be a little crunchy.
Pizza.
grapes, oranges, gogurt (yogurt in tube form) cheese sandwich, fruit snacks,
Tuna salad on toast, that way bread isn't soggy and nasty by the time you eat it, but still not crunchy either, very tasty, tropical fruit salad cups are a great alternative to apple sauce.
Bologna, tomato, mayo, lettuce sandwich.
Banana.
Grapes.
Pudding cups.
Fruit cups.
Spam sammich.
Burrito.
a sandwich, grapes, a bottle of water, and a granola bar.
Deli sandwiches and wraps. Fruit (I keep a can of sliced pineapples in my purse). Lil bags of salad from grocery store (on vegetable aisle).
Hummus and veggies to dip in it or hummus on a pita. Very yummy.

Ham and cheese, roast beef and cheese or turkey and cheese sandwiches - sandwiches with almost any kind of lunch meat; bananas, oranges, grapes, cherries, pears, peaches, canned fruit such as peaches, pears, pineapple or fruit cocktail; yogurt with or without mix-ins, pudding...
go to kraftfoods.com they have lunch ideas...
Yogurt/ gogurt, sandwiches with cold cuts, chewy cookies, chewy granola bars, grapes, and raisins aren't messy and aren't crunchy either.
these days you can't include anything that requires a knife to cut it up, so anything you can break into pieces (like chicken, tuna, meatloaf, any leftovers from the night before) is ok. Just omit the condiments or supply the confiments in those small packets or maybe they can get the condiments (like katsup, mustard, mayo or salad dressing) at school or work. You can give them a shreaded salad plus a piece of fruit. Or you can give them a can of V8 or some package of fruit juice, or some of those cheese and cracker combos, or even something already made in a container they can pop into a microwave. Instead of figuring out what to send with them, personally I'd think it would be money better spent if you first ask them what they like to eat. If it's for yourself there are loads of things in your grocery store, including all kinds of jello, pudding, cupcakes, etc. Remember though that a lot of those things were prepackaged and would cost more even though they are easier to eat, .....but they will add weight, so maybe it's better to eat light.
nutrigrain bars
soups
precut fruits and veggies with salad dressing or peanut butter
baggies of tuna, salmon, or lunchmeats and cheeses
tortilla wrap
yogurts
Lunchables usually between 1 and 2 dollars each
I keep Lil' Smokies (pre-miniaturized smoked sausages) and pre-sliced cheddar cheese in my lunchbag at work. It's a quick and relatively healthy energy boost, and there are enough preservatives in the sausage to have it survive the day in my insulated lunch bag just fine. If you nuke the sausage first, it gets a lot of the fat out, too. Wipe it down before packing and you shouldn't need more than one napkin to get any lingering greasiness off your fingertips.
I go crunchy in my pants..... *poot* But it's clean; ok? it's clean... very clean.
