 book report material May 14, 2008

This is the user manual that you get when you buy a Laptop Lunch system. (which i own, and which works very well for packing a typical American's lunch.)
It is about two thirds lessons on resources, recycling, and how much Americans throw away, and one third information about nutrition and packing lunch. If you are already aware of the need to reduce our dependence on plastic wraps, school lunches, high sodium tasteless preserved food,etc. then you wont find anything new here.
there are only a few recipes in this book, and if you are looking for lunch recipes you would be better served by buying a true recipe book. One thing you MAY wish to get this book for would be a school report. This book has a LOT of information that a child (or PTA member) could use in discussing school nutrition, reducing waste and related topics.
 User's Guide to go with the Lunch Box September 21, 2007
booklover (pa)
I received this user's guide WITH the laptop lunch box "kit" I purchased on their website. It is a nice little guide that helped soften the blow of explaining to my husband why I spent $45 for a lunch box. Despite the steep price of the lunch box kit I do LOVE the laptop lunch box and use it daily for my child's school lunches. The user's guide book is a nice quality , informative little manual with some menus, kid-friendly recipes, and suggestions for using the laptop lunch box. If you don't already own the bento-style laptop lunch box I don't think I would recommend spending the money on this user's guide. You can get more for your money by purchasing a regular book/cookbook on healthy lunches. I DO recommend purchasing the laptop lunch box which is very high quality and lots of fun!

The Laptop Lunch User's Guide has helped me to come up with new ideas for lunch making that my kids love and I feel good about. It gave me lots of information about how to pack a waste-free lunch and even gave me tips for my picky eater. The User's Guide has become my lunchtime survival guide.
Good, but not really what I needed March 21, 2003

I did not get any fresh ideas from this book. If you are already preparing earth friendly lunches i.e. using reusable containers most of this information will not be new to you. I was looking for some new recipes for lunches and I found that in "Brown Bag Success" by Sandra K. Nissenberg and Barbara Pearl.
A Great Way to Teach Kids About Nutrition February 18, 2003
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The Laptop Lunch User's Guide provided me with concrete suggestions for helping get my kids involved in lunchmaking. With its dual focus on nutrition and waste reduction, the book teaches children how to take care of their bodies and the planet as well. I hope that many more parents will read this book and pack nutritious lunches for their kids. So many of the nation's children are both undernourished and overfed, but as parents, we can make a stab at reducing the incidence of childhood obesity.
