Sure, there were the musubi, peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, or the rare treat of leftover soup or stew in a thermos. But if you were lucky enough to have a compartmentalized meal kit with crackers, cheese, and meat, suddenly everyone wanted to be your friend. These lunches follow the same concept: an assortment of snacks, easy to assemble, and fun to eat. (Popularity may or may not be included.)
