Fit & Fresh lunch kit #BacktoSchool #giveaway #ad

5M4M contributor Jennifer Donovan was paid to write this post, but her opinions are her own.

back-to-school-2013

Last year, my son’s school cafeteria switched to some sort of healthier menu. Some of his favorite choices to buy, like chicken patty on a bun because a grilled chicken sandwich that he didn’t like at all. So instead of of buying his lunch 3 or 4 times per week, with only 2 or 3 monthly menu items that he still liked, he cut down to buying once or twice a week.

Even though that meant that I had to pack his lunch much more often, I didn’t really mind, because I know he eats better when he and I decide what healthy options to include.

Having the right kind of lunch kit makes it easier. I love the type of reusable containers that Fit & Fresh offers. Not only are they sturdy, but the cool pack in the lid helps cold foods stay cold. I can’t tell you how many times grapes — which my kids love to eat in their lunch — come back home because they were “warm and gross” or “smooshed.”
