Hey Arnold
I need something besides a peanut butter and jelly sandwich to take to work when I don't have access to a fridge!
Thumbs ups for all...even the wise guy who said "hair"
Answer
Choose the Right Lunch Bag
Brown paper bags may be traditional, but they don't do anything to protect your food until lunch time. Get an insulated lunch bag with a cool pack inside. Freeze the cool pack overnight and the frostiness will help keep your food cold. The insulation in the walls of the bag help prevent heat from getting in, further protecting your lunch. Buy individual plastic "ice cubes" and sprinkle them throughout the contents of your bag to chill it further.
Use a Thermos Jug
There's a reason you see construction workers pouring coffee from a thermos all day long: they keep the liquid inside piping hot for hours. Invest in a smaller version designed for soups and chilies. Pack leftover stew, casseroles, pasta dishes or hot sandwich toppings like pulled pork in the thermos. Add crusty bread or rolls to complete your lunch.
Peanut Butter Basics
You can indulge in the occasional peanut butter and jelly sandwich if you want to get nostalgic about your school days. After that, use peanut butter and other nut butters in a more adult way to add protein to your lunch. Add cranberries, bananas or other fruits to peanut butter on crusty whole wheat bread. Pack a small container of nut butter and use it as a dip for apple slices, celery sticks, pretzels and crackers.
Instant Lunch
Instant food at your desk no longer means noodles in a cup. Stock up on meals that only need a small amount of hot water to activate a heater, or dried meals that cook in the microwave with water if you have an oven at work. Bring a thermos of boiling hot water along with your lunch to cook ramen noodles or other instant pasta dishes. Pack tuna salad in a can along with a variety of crackers and cheese for small sandwiches.
Vegetables and Fruit
Add some variety to your menu by including different fruits and vegetables each day. Make a salad occasionally and include individual packets of salad dressing. Cut up slices of vegetables and pack some ranch dip. Bring whole fruits or cups of mixed pieces of fruit. Not only will the produce taste good, the additional foods will help fill you up without adding a lot of calories.

how to keep a turkey sandwich cold while at school...?
sweet cher
i'm bringing a turkey and cheese sandwhich to school-but how do i keep it cold???i take my lunch in a brown paper bag (i'm not gonna get a lunchbox because their dorky) is there a way i can keep it cold without bringing a icepack???
Answer
no...
get an adult lunch bag, they are not dorky. You can get one in black and put it in your locker so noone can really see it anyways. Target and Kmart and other places have them for around $10 to $20. If you put an icepack in one it will keep your sandwich/ water cold for hours. If you do not put an icepack, many of those lunch boxes are insulated so they keep the temperature even without ice.
