My mom made sandwiches with white bread (never wheat), we got a juice box like Hi-C or Capri Sun, we got snacks like fruit roll-ups and chips, Lunchables.... She did pack healthy food too (korean food is healthy and lots of fruit), but mostly it was a lot of carbs, snacks and sugar like all the other kids!
Sometimes I wish life were simple like that again, but I think so much about everything I feed my kids.
What types of foods did your parents pack in your lunch?

All through elementary school I had the same lunch:
- either ham or tuna sandwich on white bread
- an apple, or orange, or banana
- a juice box
- a snack for recess (cookies, Joe Louis, etc.)
I was always jealous of my friends who had hot lunches in a thermos.

Two sandwiches, usually honey glazed ham with cheese on white bread, a bag of chips, and a can of soda.

My mom never packed my lunch! I had school lunch. In high school I'd buy my lunch from the bagel store near my school.

Either pb&j, cheese and mustard, or pb and marshmallow fluff! And then chips, cheetos, something like that. Sometimes a little Debbie, then a drink like a juice box or a sipps ice tea. Not the greatest stuff!

Sandwich, crackers, some fruit, carrot sticks, and frozen minute maid lemonade. It kept my lunch cold and was just thawed enough to drink by lunch.

Sandwich made with white bread and deli meat and a boxed drink. We never had snacks at home. I had a smaller than normal lunch since I would eat a meal as soon as I got home from school.

Sandwiches, yogurt, chips or other snack and a juice box - usually. Sometimes I bought lunch too.

It was usually a school lunch but if I packed my own it was a PB&J on white, chips, fruit cocktail, and a juice box.
