My wife and i were just looking at packages of lunchables the other day and lamenting how little food it was

200-300 calories is not a reasonable amount for a lunch, you're making kids pay to go hungry at that point

lunchbales have had incredible shrinkflation the past decade or so. they’re so loving tiny now lol

The packaging for the turkey and cheddar Lunchable option is described as a 3.5 ounce container. The document said it contains 2-ounce equivalents MMA (meat/meat alternative), one ounce equivalent of grain and “meets whole grain rich criteria” of the NSLP.

The extra cheesy pizza option comes in a 5.05 ounce container and contains 2 ounces equivalent of MMA, 2 ounce equivalents of grain, 1/8 cup of red/orange vegetable and “meets whole grain rich criteria” of the NSLP.

A lunchable is basically what an alcoholic parent would throw in a bag while extremely hungover. Reading between the lines it seems like maybe they had to reduce the salt and saturated fat? Hard to believe a lunch of crackers and shelf stable meat alternatives isn't considered healthy by the woke usda these days

Have you guys considered that micro plastics are good for our energy sector?

I say we add more plastic to food, it's a necessary vitamin for the economy.

specifying 1/8 cup of red/orange vegetable really keeps your options open imho

Dehydrated carrots in a plastic bag. Plus that would be a lot healthier than anything else in there

We should give kids lunches like those other countries then just hand them a brick of plastic to make the oil part of the conglomerate happy

You could even put a weird little face on it and call it something goofy like funboi, funko. I don't know let the marketing guys figure it out.

relax it’s just extra protein. in fact, you should be grateful that you are getting bonus protein for FREEE!

mass producing tomatoes and only picking out the perfect ones for the grocery stores leaves around 92% of the bug hole ones to get tossed into the tomato sauce bay
