Like them, although there is no where to put soup, unless you use the drink bottle. Bummer!
ETA: Kylie always takes soup and skips the sandwich as she's not a meat fan and not much into PBJ. This post has been edited by coasterqueen on Jan 27 2010, 12:04 PM -------------------- ~*Karen*~

Thanks for posting that--looks like a good idea. I hope everyone reads the FAQ about NEVER microwaving plastic of any kind. So many people still do, and I am convinced we are all poisoning ourselves by doing so. Even the official "plastics council" or whatever they call themselves, acknowledges that it is unsafe to microwave any plastic, yet people still do all the time, and convenience foods such as Lean Cuisine or Weight Watchers are still packaged in cheap, unstable plastic. I always make everyone in my family remove the brick of frozen whatever and heat it up on a glass plate or bowl.
Sorry, didn't mean to hijack the thread with my little rant! Lunchboxes do look cool. -------------------- Jeanne

That's why I say don't use the microwave The only time I use it is to defrost the dogs/cats meat Microwaving isn't exactly the healthiest for you either. -------------------- ~*Karen*~

Not exactly... American Chemistry Council says it's ok to microwave in "approved" plastic containers: http://www.plasticsinfo.org/s_plasticsinfo...ID=576&DID=2123 Microwaving with plastics: (this was a link that referenced the American Council on Plastics, but led the the same plasticsinfo.org website as above) http://www.plasticsinfo.org/s_plasticsinfo...ID=656&DID=2593 More info: http://www.aolhealth.com/conditions/food-s...angerous-or-not -------------------- Convincing the world that the only way to solve the ongoing issues while raising children is PERSISTENCE.

Michelle and I have discussions occasionally where she says "I don't get it." I tell her, "just because I don't agree with your opinion doesn't mean I don't 'get it' ". -------------------- Convincing the world that the only way to solve the ongoing issues while raising children is PERSISTENCE.

dh doesn't research this stuff like I do, he doesn't even know that he should care about stuff like this, same with HFCS and growth hormone in our milk and meat. Its my job to keep my family safe. |
