Sack lunches for hubby?!


Question: Sack lunches for hubby?
My husband works 6 days a week and drives a delivery truck. I'm trying to get him to limit the amount of fast food he's eating, but he complains that not having access to a microwave limits him to boring sandwiches. I have agreed to make his lunches every morning, but I'm dealing with a very picky eater. Any suggestions on meals that do not have to be refrigerated that would add a little variety? He's a big eater, so it also needs to be something that is going to fill him up and satisfy him.

Answers:

Why not try this instead of a sack?
We have a soft- sided insulated Coleman cooler that is about 12" wide, 6" deep and about 8" high. It has a shoulder strap. I have both a hard plastic tube that you can fill w/ water and freeze and the very inexpensive gel packs you can freeze. I have tested various cold things in it and it works great. Took tuna to a race this summer in upper 90 degree weather where it sat w/ direct sun on it for 5 hours. Had a left over tuna sandwich that was still cold when I unpacked it, at least 12 hours after packing it. So, you can see that would work on a delivery truck. Also, for hot things like chili or soup get a wide mouth thermos w/ a screw on lid. The cooler also leaves plenty of room for a snack, napkins, etc.
