I’m yearning for a Kids Konserve lunch kit!
I truly apologize for the lack of posts of late. I have been keeping myself busy with my newborn baby girl, and since my Mom has been doing most of the cooking nowadays, I have not had a decent chance to pack many bento lunches.
Nevertheless, whenever I get the chance, I still am reading about and drooling over bentos packed by other bento enthusiasts around the world. Oh, and of course I am taking mental notes!
One of the things that I have been concerned with (and still am) about bento packing is the usage of plastic containers. The truth is, if the container is made of polycarbonate, it’s not BPA-free, hence not that safe if you put really hot stuff in them. One solution is to use glass containers (like Pyrex), but those aren’t really kid-friendly.
I have been toying over the idea of investing in some stainless steel containers, because I think they look very good, they are easy to clean and PLUS they are kid-friendly too. So when I read the review of the Kids Konserve metal lunch kit over at Lunch in a Box, I knew I had to have one of these sets!… or rather I would want one of these for my kids…or even for myself!
First of all, the kit doesn’t only look asethetically pleasing (LOVE the green against the silver!), it’s fully functional too! I am not too intrigued by the cloth carrying bag though…it looks a little bit too flimsy from the picture, but I might change my mind when I see it.
In any case, what’s important is the kit components are BPA-free, including the green lids, and that IS saying a lot, if you’re concerned about health issues.
The whole set retails for USD40 from Kids Konserve, which I feel is quite expensive, but seeing that it is stainless steel after all, I am weighing the pros and cons of getting one. Meanwhile I am hoping and praying that I will win the set from the giveaway run by Lunch in a Box right now. That would absolutely solve my problem, wouldn’t you think so?
