Oscar Mayer Lunchables Blog Tour & Review

We were recently invited to take part in a Mom Central Blog Tour featuring the new Oscar Mayer Lunchables Lunch Combinations. The timing for this tour couldn’t have come at a more perfect time! Our children go back to school on Wed the 26th so lunches are on my mind quite a bit!

If you read my Lunch Box Rant earlier this month then you will know why I jump at any new lunchbox ideas! I decided to let Pie take a test run of her Lunchable. She picked out the New Ham + American Sub Lunchable. She really liked that everything was in it’s own little container and that nothing was touching anything else. Her exact words – “This is cool man!”

She loved making her little sub and, I must say, they are not skimpy with the meat or cheese! For some strange reason Pie was really excited to see the little mayonnaise packet! She actually USED the mayo!! She hates mayo, but ate it right up on her sub!! She did have a bit of a struggle trying to get the mayo open, but finally did it on her own.

Her favorite part of the whole lunch was the bottle of spring water and the Tropical Punch Kool-aid Single to add to it. She carefully read the instructions (lol) and really shook the heck outta her bottle after adding the single. Can you tell if she liked it or not?

I think the New Oscar Mayer Lunchables Combinations will be a great way to change up the dreary everyday lunches she usually wants me to pack. There are a variety of choices including:

• Turkey + Cheddar Sub
• Ham + American Sub
• Turkey + Cheddar Cracker Combos
• Ham + American Cracker Combo
• Deep Dish Cheese Pizza
• Deep Dish Pepperoni Pizza

Everything in the meal was fresh and looked appetizing. The only con that I found is that the sub lunchables package is a bit bulky for my daughter’s lunch bag. It’s not too big of a deal though, everything is individually wrapped so the items could be placed in the lunch bag, out of the packaging, and still stay fresh. Pie wants to take one on the first day of school so they’re on tomorrow’s grocery list!

I think it’s wonderful that Lunchables are offering healthier alternatives for picky eaters like my child! My daughter likes it too and says they deserve a big thumbs up!

I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour by Mom Central on behalf of Oscar Mayer Lunchables and received a sample to facilitate my candid review. In addition, Mom Central sent me a gift card to thank me for taking the time to participate.
