What's in your child's lunchbox today?

I have 2 teen boys, 14 & 15 ,and I've given up on pack lunches now simply because it became a chore....
DS1 would want tuna every day - you don't get much cheap tuna!
DS 2 wanted either jam or ham!
Both wanted crisps , choc biscuit type 'penguin' , yoghurt, water, fruit.
But both wantd more and more,,, it was costing a fortune! Then on the day they had PE it was too much to carry so on that day they had £2 dinner money each- ok when they both had PE on the same day,
but when they didn't it drove me mad!
So I now give £2 a day and tbh it saves me a fortune on the lunch box type food they wanted!
I'm happy about and so are they,,,,, they still have a big dinner at night! :rotfl:

My brother only ever ever ever ate tuna sandwiches for his packed lunches. When he was stockpiling food to go away to uni - he stockpiled something insane like 100 cans of tinned tuna to take with him for all his lunches.

Strange child.

My daughter has either white bread or a wrap with ham/cucmber, light mayo, or tuna etc. Three jaffa cakes, cheese string and frube yoghurt. Water to drink. No juice allowed.
