Prepd Pack

My current 'lunchbox' is a plastic shopping bag I get from my trips to the grocery store. While it's a relatively free option (I do have to pay for the groceries) it's not fashionable (at all) and it doesn't keep things in order. There's been a number of days when I have to throw stuff out or spend part of my work day cleaning up a mess made due to a spill in my lunch. I've known I need a lunchbox for some time now and the Prepd Pack looks like the one I've been waiting for.

Eating healthy has a lot to do with portion control and that's the idea behind the containers you'll find inside the Prepd Pack. The case is made from a bamboo construction and the cutlery stays in place through the magic of magnetics. The accompanying app includes recipes from professional nutritionists and chefs and integrates with Health Kit for iOS.

Still with 24 days to go, they're way above goal at $440,000 of the $25,000 goal. The units are expected to begin shipping in June to early supporters.

Industrial workers and farmers in the mid-1800s couldn't come home at noon to eat so they packed food into sturdy dinner pails and old cleaned-out tobacco tins. Later, kids (wanting to be like "Dad") began taking their school lunches in similar pails and tins. And that's how the concept of bringing a meal to work originated.
