Do you make them yourself? Great looking stuff. How much are they? Where do you get them?

Can Snoopy and Spirit pull out from one another for a moment to check out my lunch? An old fashioned bento carried in my shoulder bag everday. Lunch can be over $10 a day, not including an espresso in the morning.

No. But I believe you probably purchased one of the last Rambo boxes to add to your collection and still use it concealed inside of one of your recycled shopping bags. I believe you get off on the Thermos bottle.

I guess you're dumb as a post, otherwise you would have been aware that we're talking about adults here, unless you think kids are reading this blog and/or buying Mario Batali lunch totes. Besides, if metal lunchboxes are so "banned," then why are they being sold on that very page among others? Or does Snoopy the village idiot really think adults would go around carrying Wall-E metal lunchboxes?

I guess Spirit never grew up, otherwise he would have been aware of a ban on metal lunch boxes starting back in the 70's. http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/bllunchbox.htm

Companies should also help their workers out by getting a large refrigerator and microwave. People are working longer hours than ever before - which means they may be eating a continental breakfast, lunch and dinner at the office. All that ordering out is accumulates. Some busy People are even skipping the lunch hour all together and working at their desks We built a small kitchen for our staff so they could bring in groceries or tasty leftovers from home if they chose to. During the nice summer weather, most want to go out for lunch, but during the dreary winters - it is either ordering out or creating in the kitchen. That is the least Employers could do, especially in this day of high rents and hiring Interns who get no compensation

I recommended the book "Vegan Lunchbox" for bring to work lunch ideas. You definitely don't have to be a vegan to enjoy the easy and yummy recipes. Bringing lunch to work is a big money saver.

With baby boomers refusing to grow up/old, how about some good, old fashioned metal lunchboxes instead? Or if none of the prefinished boxes appeal to you, buy the blank metal one and decorate it to your heart's desire. I can just imagine Jake Dobkin having his covered with graffiti. Or how about painting a Gothamist logo on it? Personally, I do re-use grocery bags. But then again, my grocery bags are reusable nylon ones. And like Alton Brown, I don't like unitaskers, so having a bag that can carry lunch to the office then carry my groceries home is great.

Or you can also pack it in your dad's old briefcase on the way to the 711...
