This ‘brown bag it’ resistance is really taking off in the red counties in Minnesota.
I told my son he’s on the leading edge. In eleven years, I’ve made him about 2,000 lunches. I know what goes into it, he likes it and doesn’t mind, as a sophomore, that he brings his lunch. Nobody razzes him about it and they’re jealous of his homemade chocolate chip brownies.

The “brown bag” being Moochelle?
We did the same for our son all the way thru school-—he couldn’t stand the school lunches. Funniest part all his buds were continouusly trying to trade him out of his lunch stuff. Incredibly to us, not one of the other kids put any serious pressure on their folks to make them something worth eating. They all seemed to be happy just getting by. But reflecting on that it seems to this day, 20 years later, that is still the difference ——the others are happy to “get by”.
