Shopping for back to school lunch totes? Great Round-up of safe kid food containers and lunch boxes on the Feed our Families blog.
Speaking of safe kid lunches, a study reported in US News and world Report among other outlets says home-packed lunches reach unsafe temperatures before they are eaten. But you should also check out this rebuttal over at The Lunch Tray. Still, throw in another ice-pack while you're at it.
Read a great summary of Lunch Wars by Amy Kalafa (of Two Angry Moms) at PsychCentral. It's a scary description of the state of school lunch - but it also tells us what we can do (hint: join the nutrition committee at our school.)
After that, you may wish to pack lunch for your kid. If so, check out these lunch ideas at Epicurious.
