Putting a ‘Punch* In Lunch
Packing a lunch that “packs a
punch” and avoiding that day-to-
day sameness is a problem of many
homemakers. Aim always to include
something crisp, something juicy,
and one hot, one sweet, one tart or
salty, and one colorful food, advise
nutrition specialists. Each lunch
box should contain one third of the
food supply for the day for the per
son who eats it. Lettuce put in sand
wiches is likely to wilt and is better
when wrapped separately.
