Lunchboxes at school - do you put refrigerated stuff in like yogurts/cheese sandwiches?

I remember when I was at school and all the lunchboxes were kept at room temp at school. Is that still the case? I am hesitant to give my son a cheese sandwich because I dont like the idea of it getting warm and being unsafe to eat? And yoghurts etc. for the same reason? Anyone got any ideas?

I recall having these random meat spread sort of sandwich fillings as a kid and I survived in the 80s… what were they?!

Oh yeah! Not a clue, called wasnt one of them called shippams or something?

You’ve answered your own question: were you and your classmates regularly struck down with food poisoning? I’m guessing not….

I used to bite my sandwiches into perfect circles to ward off the salmonella witch 🤣
That is a joke, but i did bite them into perfect circles and then eat them.

In the summer months yes I usually stick in an ice pack

I buy frubes and freeze them. Then bung one or 2 in to keep everything cool.

I've always put freezer packs in

No school age children anymore, but you can buy hard or soft ice blocks to fit neatly inside.

I take out a kiddies' lunchbox on my long drives out and it keeps drinks icy cold ❄️
