Russbe Has the Quirkiest Waste-Free Lunch Packs for Your Cheeky Kids
Theoretically, a lunch pack serves a specific purpose. It needs to be able to transport food from your kitchen to your kid’s cafeteria, hopefully with all the food still intact, not so cold and not smashed flat in your children’s backpack.
What matters most though is whether Batman or Princess Elsa can stare up at your kids, amusingly enough to entice them to open the lunch pack and actually eat what is inside, especially when it is a healthy meal that is not always so appealing to your child.
While there are many fun, funky and cute lunch packs we have on Kitchenware Superstore, we recently discovered Russbe, a California-based brand that’s committed to bringing fun waste-free meals and snack packs to you since 2008. From bento boxes to snack packs, lunch chillers to reusable juice pop bags. Everything is reusable and sold with cute and quirky colourful monsters.
Behold, we are steering all Aussie parents toward Russbe lunch packs. Here’s why:
Early Morning Brain Relief!
We would be lying if packing the children’s lunch was the hardest part of our daily adult routine. But sometimes (still in our pyjamas, in the early AM, and coffee hasn’t exactly done its job), eyes half open, lunch preps can feel like taking math test with a terrible hangover. Did I fill up all compartments? Yesterday they took something with a blue lid. Where is the lid? Have I washed the lid? Hold on, is it my turn to prepare them lunch today?
Let’s get to the bento boxes. One of the best features of a bento is that it typically has the single-container approach where each compartment guides you to what you need to fill, which many of us need in the wee hours of the morning.
Despite our thorough higher educations, it tells you what is missing without using too much brain power — often they are designed with one big space for a sandwich or pasta, and two smaller compartments for fruits and veggies. You can never go wrong. Thank you bento!
Without further ado, say hello to our collection of Russbe bento boxes. They are reusable and includes a food-safe silicone lid. The materials are BPA, PVC, Latex, and Phthalate free. We have the bento boxes with 3 compartment (1.5L) and 2 compartments (680ml).
They are both available in Teal and Navy Charcoal. The colours are a good indicator to specifically prep different meals for each kid’s taste bud.
Keeping your Sanity and Ensuring Kids Eat Enough
The maddening bit about packing a child’s lunch is that no matter how tasty or beautiful you make it, your darling children’s mid-day meal is no match for the conversations they are going to have around them at the cafeteria.
Not forgetting, the school clock that dictates how much time they have to eat. Every minute is precious, especially for the younger kids.
These eco-friendly bags are created with a seamless locking seal to help the kids open their packs with ease and its gusseted construct help kids hold up their packs upright so they can grab their snacks without a struggle —meaning the kids will have time to eat more!
Check out these quirky snack and sandwich bag set of 4. We are guessing Russbe was going for out-of-the-world quirky Monsters to amuse the kids every day instead of the common Princess Elsa, Batman or stardust unicorns.
Beyond Lunch Packs. Reusable Frozen Pops!
Thinking of getting creative for the family with frozen fruity popsicles? Consider Russbe’s Reuse-A-Pop! It comes in a set of 12 where each popsicle bag measures 5cm x 26.5cm. It has a zipper seal that helps to avoid the contents from spilling and leaking.
And if you need to name your popsicles, it has a built-in-label for you to write date and flavours. Super convenient and very ideal if you plan outdoor travelling or camping with the family, or prepare dessert for the kids after they are done with school.
