I would surely do this kind of lunch packing for my kids.

I really hate to be a buzz-kill, but I am always looking for a bargain. I looked up the waste free lunch kit and found that it was $45 in full. I found the reuseable bag (that appropriately matched my SIGG bottle) for $9 under BYO (bring your own) in Wal-mart the other day. I had to buy it since I didn’t need all the other supplies. They even had the thermoses and water bottles to by seperately. I loved that! I didn’t have to waste money or more resources by buying things I already had!

I came across your blog entry about school lunches and thought that you may be interested in knowing about these Waste Free Lunch Kits.
They include a stainless beverage bottle, a thermos for hot meals, a neoprene washable lunch bag and an optional set of stainless food containers.
They come in a variety of configurations as well.
Here’s the link:

When I was in public school (until 3rd grade and then homeschooled) I always remembered my lunch box but I knew a lot of kids that didn’t. Sure this would have helped them!

I found a great lunch pack made from recycled wet suits http://www.momsbestbets.blogspot.com

I think that would work nicely here. 🙂

On the wrap-n-mats, however, some of them (not necessarily that trademark name but similar products) are made from polyvinyl chloride, and can have lead and phthalates as well. Always check fabric and stay clear of PVC.

Interesting that we both decided to focus on PVC. I forgot to mention the lead issue in mine.
