Pack Your Lunch Day

National Pack Your Lunch Day is celebrated on March 10th of every year. Lunch packed from home is always special as the person who prepared it would have made it with love. One could reminisce that their lunchtime was a very special break time especially those who have attended the school. Many of us would have become friends once after sharing the lunches. So the daily mystery inside the lunch box will surely make a person enjoy the food with excitement. Over the year, most us are opting to eat food from the hotels and restaurants as with the work pressure and busy schedule. Most of us eat fast foods and as a result, we forgot what is the healthy lunch. Thus National Pack Your Lunch Day has been created and celebrated as a way to make anyone prepare and eat a healthy meal during their lunchtime at least for a day.

History of National Pack Your Lunch Day

The National Pack Your Lunch Day‘s history, origin, and the creator are anonymous. There isn’t any mention of why Pack Your Lunch Day has been celebrated on this date and its first observance. The aim of the celebration Day is to make all of us prepare our own lunch to have it in the middle of the day. Typically, lunch is break time in the middle of the day that is meant to eat food. Lunch is commonly the second meal of the day taken after breakfast. Lunch is the abbreviation for luncheon, and the origin of both the words relate to the food eaten at any time of the day or night. But the meaning has gradually changed to a small or mid-sized meal eaten at the midday during the 20th century. The lunch served varies in size depending on the culture, and most significant variations exist in different areas of the world.

Lunchtime benefits anyone to make healthier meal choices. Through the years lunch has changed in appearance and thus most people prefer eating the fast foods. Pack Your Lunch Day gives chance for all of us to eat homemade lunch. The Day also reminds us of all the advantages of making your own lunch and the benefits one must not expect. It is a day of the year to pack your own lunch and take it with you wherever you go. Enjoy eating whatever lunch you have made and packed yourself for the workplace, school, meetings, while on a picnic, or to your friend’s house or some other places where you are spending the day.
