Brown Bagging Goes Green Good for the planet, good for your lunch

This autumn, more than ever, reusable, eco-friendly options for lunch carriers abound, which is good news for green foodies (groodies) and anyone who's ever intended to take their lunch but hasn't managed it just yet.

It's also good news for kids. The Seattle Times reports that the more disposable the bag, the more likely it is the whole lunch will end up in the garbage. We say bring on appealing, reusable lunch bags and keep our kids' tums filled!

Naturally, what's inside also counts. For some new ideas about what to pack to keep lunch interesting for them and for you, check out the latest entry to our blog, The Lime Post.
