Salami sandwich. Ziplock of carrots. Apple.

Every.Single.Day.

Sandwich or leftovers, fruit, carrots and water.

I specifically wanted sandwiches every day, I wouldn't tolerate leftovers back then.

So, sandwich, crackers or cheese its, piece of whole fruit, juicebox of iced tea Sipps brand.

eta: goldfish, I loved the plain ones, I usually had those in rotation in my lunch. And a Twinkie.

@Mrs. Bee: I remember taking a bag of popcorn, popping it and eating it for lunch a lot in junior high when it was 'cool'.
My dad made my lunch a lot;
Juice
Sandwich (go PB&J)
Pudding or Jello
Cookies/tiny cakes
Apple

What I took for lunch on a regular basis would not be acceptable today, funny how things change!

I remember taking pepperoni, cheese and crackers
Capri sun
Snack cakes
Lunchables
Fruit.roll ups

I almost always bought the school lunch in elementary school which had a hot portion and a cold portion. Or you could purchase the salad option

Hot: grilled ham and cheese, pizza, corn dog, sloppy joes, etc
Cold: side salad with a piece of fruit

Salads: a big taco salad (my favorite), chef salad (I think it was a lot of veggies and cubed ham), some other salad with chopped egg

@Mrs. Bee: Yes they did! Secretly I still love them. hehe

Sandwich (pbj or pepperoni)
Baby carrots
Fruit
Snack (chips, cookies, etc.)

@lovehoneybee: omg Vienna sausages. My brother loved those.

Ugh, you guys are making this pregnant woman hungry!!

I usually had:
-Sandwich (PB&J or Cheese, with or w/out lettuce and or pickles, mustard/mayo.)
-A snack bag of chips or Cheetos/Fritos (whatever came in that huge variety box.)
-Fruit snacks or fruit roll up/fruit by the foot.
-A TastyKake or Little Debbie
-juice box, or juice box of iced tea, same as @looch:

This pretty much sounds like what I still eat today. lol Glad I also added in healthier foods though. To this day I still love fruit snacks! Funny though, I wouldn't dream of giving my future LO this stuff on a regular basis. I'll have to sneak for myself it when he gets old enough

@blackbird: I couldn't stand them! I would always try to trade them away!

It was the same thing every day.
-Bottle of water
-Half of a whole wheat turkey sandwich with mustard and lettuce
-apple or orange

Sandwich
Chips
Little Debbie

Frozen Hi-C fruit punch @Mrs. Pickle: it was like getting a slushie at lunch time!

@TheSwissWifeStyle: I was waiting for someone to say tastyKakes!!
Sandwich - either PB&J or deli meat
Juice box
Fun size chips or tastykakes
Fruit (apple or grapes usually)
fruit snacks --- I still don't feel like my lunch is complete without fruit snacks, it's so weird!

I don't remember elementary school, but in high school I would usually buy a Snapple and French fries or 2 cookies. So bad! I'm a dietitian now, go figure

You guys all had my dream childhood lunch. My mother would rather die than buy any of the following for her family: white bread, sugar cereal, sodas, fruit snacks, any kind of packaged cakes/desserts, individual bags of chips, or candies on any date outside christmas, halloween, or maybe Easter.

My after school snacks were delicious, but things like shredded cheese melted onto plain shredded wheat (we called these Cheesy Wheats...it is super good), or PB on celery, or trail mix, or fresh fruit.

The only cookies my mom would buy were Nilla Wafers (because my dad liked them). It's not like we never had sweets, its just that they were homemade. I *could* always count on finding some chocolate chips for baking in the pantry, and my brother and I would help ourselves to a handful of those. ;-()
