I love this new green lunch box and so do my kids!  We use it for lunches but also to pack snacks and activities when traveling.

Here is more information about the company and the founder, another amazing mom who designed this fabulous lunch box!

This is from the Go Green Lunch Box About Us page... 

Many of the local elementary schools are working hard to teach the children of our community the importance of protecting the environment. Since their kindergarten days, my children have been taught repeatedly the phrase, “reduce, reuse, recycle.” Over the past few years, with children taking the lead, my family has made changes in our daily lives to do our part to protect and conserve our environment – locally and globally.

In 2008, Go Green Lunch Box was founded simply out of "frustration." Packing two lunches everyday, I was appalled at the amount of waste generated by the packaging of single-serve items (sandwiches, juices, snacks, desserts, etc.). All of that – plastic baggies/wrap/cups, paper cartons/bags, cellophane bags – eventually wound up in our landfills. Upon reading a statistic about a typical American child generating 67 pounds of lunch packaging waste each school year, I knew I had to make some changes. After buying food containers and trying, unsuccessfully, to fit all the containers into the lunch boxes we already owned, resulting in either the lids or containers (or both!) not being brought back home from school, I decided to solve the problem . . . hence, Go Green Lunch Box!

I have partnered with a family friend and international businessman, Hinman Dunn, who has manufacturing and sourcing experience. Like many new products, customer feedback over the past year has provided Hinman and me excellent opportunities to improve our products so as to better meet the needs of parents and children. Consequently, our latest product line features not only design changes, but also, improvements in functionality and durability. We truly think these “second year” products will be very well-received by our existing and new customers.

To ensure quality of our products, Hinman has spent considerable time working with our contracted factories. Also, the lunch box and bottle have passed tests in accordance with the relevant FDA extract and California Proposition 65 (the nation’s most stringent law regulating environmental health and safety). Our food container is made of polypropylene, along with silicone to ensure freshness of its contents. Both are safe and recyclable (please visit www.americanchemistry.com for additional information on plastics and recyclability).
