Brown Bag Challenge
We're teaming up with fellow food bloggers to host a Brown-Bag Challenge, a month-long initiative to eat consciously and save money by packing a lunch each weekday instead of eating out. Join us here and share what you're eating with FN Healthy Eats on Facebook and Twitter with the hashtag #brownbag. Are you up for the challenge?

You’re one smart cookie for carrying a lunch sack like this one from Dabbawalla. It’s small enough to fit inside your work bag — or grab it by the easy-to-grip handle on top — yet large enough to keep your lunch and snacks intact. It houses an interior mesh pocket, plus another pocket for an ice pack. Find it here.
