Do you have a problem with your co-workers snagging your lunch from the officer refrigerator?
Now there's a new lunch bag that some say will keep the hungriest thief away from your grub.
It's a lunch bag with mold. Actually, it's a ziplock bag with a pattern that looks like mold.
Parents, this could also be a hit at the lunch table at your kids school.

I have a better idea, how about a giant amount of wasabi sauce on your sandwich? It has no odor and one bite will make the theif cry and spit the food everywhere...
worked for me!
When I was in grade school, I had a problem with someone stealing my lunch. One day, my mother made a sandwich with canned dog food on it & a note in the middle that said - “you’re eating a dog food sandwich”.
I never had my lunch stolen again after that.
OMG ...THANK YOU for that! Priceless!
ROFLOL
LOL Excellent!
I always thought loading the sandwich with cayenne, or seriously over salting would cure the issue, or icing cupcakes with colored crisco.
Using bitter chocolate as dessert would stop things as well. I keep bitter chocolate for baking. One time I unwrapped a cube to see tiny teeth marks. My kid had gotten into it and decided it was pretty ugly, so he rewrapped it and put it back in the box.
Aren’t kids great ... similar thing happened to son#1 found some choco-ex-lax in hubbies drawer ...poor tike. ;P
I brought in two banana cream pies for a unit event. I left one in the office fridge. I told my coworkers to help them selves. I had no problem with the guy eating it. However, I was annoyed that he put the empty foil tray, with a plastic fork, back in the fridge.
This wouldn’t stop some people. Several years ago there was a sandwich in our work fridge that had been there for several months. Every now and then a co-worker and I would check the progress of the mold. It was pretty nasty. Well one day another co-worker declared that if someone paid him $100 he would eat that sandwich. So we tried to collect the $100 from everyone. We only managed to get $50 and he decided that for $50 he would eat a large bite of the sandwich. And he did. It was the most disgusting thing to watch.
I think he hurled three or four times during our shift.
Whatever happened to Ex-Lax brownies?
Been replaced with maryjane brownies ... we are just sooooooooo outta the loop!
This could backfire. When I find rotten food in the fridge at work, I throw it out. I don’t care whose it is.
And so timely ...
I don't anyone who would do this ... ummm ... forget it .... yes I do!
LOL .... so you’re the one going through my lunch bag! THIEF!!!!!! ;-D
Sorry, I didn’t know about your special fermented diet!
I wanna stop 'em!
LOL ... it’s all in the name ... it’s called CSI. ;)
Ex-Lax brownies won’t *stop* anything!!!! ;)
I know a photographer who once had an old gym bag for his camera bag, complete with dirty socks and a jock strap hanging out out one side. Of course the all the yucky stuff was fake and the effect, but he swore by it. He figured NOBODY would snatch a grungy old gym bag. It looked so real you wouldn’t even want to handle it to move someplace else.
