Your child could be getting stomach aches from that lunch you packed...

There’s a good chance that healthy lunch is spoiled by the time you eat it...

Health Day News unpacked some pre-school lunches and found that 90% of them were at an unsafe temperature. Lunchboxes alone aren’t enough to do the trick. After two hours the temperature of the food is usually over 40 degrees Fahrenheit with bacteria on the rise. 

Placing the lunchbox in the fridge didn’t seem to help much and insulated lunchboxes actually kept the cold out. Extra ice packs still didn’t do the trick in most cases. It’s best if packed lunches are non-perishable. Foods that need to be refrigerated should be taken out of the box and placed in the back of community refrigerators which get opened a lot.
