This is part of the Mommy Go Green Blog Tour.
Personally, I work at home. When I am hungry I go to the kitchen and find something to eat. This is all well and good for me, but it wasn’t always like this as it isn’t for many of you. You pack up your lunch and take it with you, right?
Well, today I bring you a great alternative for your lunch packaging. No more plastic containers which may or may not be safe, no more wasteful sandwich bags or foil. LunchBots provide a safe, 100% stainless steel, waste-free lunch alternative.
About LunchBots (from the site):
Stainless steel is one of the safest materials for food storage and handling. It is an alloy made from natural elements: iron ore, chromium, silicon, nickel, carbon, nitrogen, and manganese. The final metal has differing properties depending on varying amounts of these elements.
LunchBots are manufactured from high-quality, food grade Type 304 stainless steel. Stainless steel has great resistance to stain or rust due to its chromium content making it the material of choice for food processing, dairy and brewing. Stainless steel is easy to clean, durable, and sanitary.
The only thing I question are peoples’ commitment to a waste-free lunch. Obviously, these cannot go in the microwave at work so please be sure to have a reusable plate and utensils at work for the days you bring a lunch that needs heating up!
These are very attractive, they’ve been tested, they clean up nicely, no worries about stains or leeching of chemicals from plastic. What more could you ask for? How about FREE shipping? For an unlimited time use this code for FREE shipping (U.S. Only): FREESHIP09
Be sure to check out my first post on 5 Minutes for Going Green and let me know what you think!
All the best,

February 26, 2009 at 1:41 pmI wonder if you could get a restaurant to put the food you order in one of these? I work from home too, so most days it’s leftovers for lunch. On the few occasions I actually leave the house at lunchtime, I like to treat myself to a sandwich from a local deli or some other fare. Since coffee shops are more than willing to put your hot beverage in your own cup, why shouldn’t restaurants take up the same position? It reduces waste and the restaurant’s supply costs, so I say it’d be silly for them to deny such a request!
