I purchased the inserts that go in a fishing tackle box (they have great small dividers built in) they take pepperoni, bologna, different cheeses, pretzels, carrot sticks, etc. and their friends think it's pretty cool, too! Plus, they actually like the tackle box & won't accidentally throw it away. I think they were like $1.99 or so at Walmart.

In the morning just pull one out of the freezer and throw it in.<br /><br />Also, younger kids like "assembling" things. So I've sent crackers, cheese cut into rounds, lunch meat cut into rounds etc etc so that they can make their own sandwiches. Great interview, as usual.
