I remember that one. We used paper bags but I was so envious of kids who had that lunch box.


Do kids use lunch boxes today?

When I went to school, which wasn't too long ago, I used a reusable lunch bag. Never had a box. I don't recall seeing any students with an actual metal one when I was in school, although I did see a ton of the cheap plastic ones they make these days.

I actually have 2 metal lunch boxes in my room, both are Madonna themed. Neither is real collectible or worth much though, they were made in 2000.

Wow, amazing! I remember those ones too, and the thermos with the glass interiors. Those were the days.

Tas I had that one too, and the thermos also had the glass interior. Bologna sandwich and some cookies. And milk stated pretty cold.

Who needs a lunch box when you have one of these to follow you around?

I had a Hopalong Cassidy lunchbox. I loved that guy.

Come to think of it I also had a Hoppy bath towel and washrag, too.

My father bought me a Polly Red Top thermos. Anyone remember those? I could never get the top off.
