It’s almost time for schools to gear up for the year! For families that pack lunch to go, here are some tips to remember:
- Wash your hands before prepping any food.
- Use ice packs or frozen juice boxes to keep cold foods cold in an insulated lunch tote.
- Rinse fruits and vegetables with water and blot dry with a paper towel.
- Remind kids to store their lunch in a refrigerator at school if available.
