You know it’s kind of a slow day at home when I am sitting here trying to write something creative about a thermos… but I must spread the word about this particular one as it will change your life.  The ante for the lunch standard in New York City has changed quite a bit since the ’70s and a boring old sandwich is simply unacceptable.  We now send our kids with “food jars” so that we can offer them variety.  The Foogo thermos is perfect for packing pasta’s, soups, fruit, cheese, etc; and it keeps food hot or cold for up to five hours.   It’s the perfect portion size and fits nicely into a backpack.  Let’s just say it is a far cry from the Thermos from back in the olden days when I went to school.  All I’m saying is that mine totally leaked, always smelled like rotting apple juice and rolled around in my lunchbox crushing my sandwich.  Kids today….they don’t even know how good they have it.
