I'm 31....used to have lunchables a ton when I was in grade school, holy heck I grabbed one the other day and either the quality is much lower or I had some bad taste as a kid ๐
They were never good. Dry, stale crackers. Tiny, slimy meat circles. Salty cheese cubes that taste more like a chemistry experiment than cured cow's milk. As kids our palates are motivated to salty fatty food with much less regard for flavor.
Now, if you want Lunchables for grown-ups, get yourself one of those cheese and cracker platters from a nicer grocery store. Pastrami, salami, pepper jack, gouda, and sesame or butter crackers. Delicious.
Prosciutto, salami, garlic coil, gruyere, Gouda, a nice aged cheddar and some Brie. Breton garden vegetable crackers. Now you've got a snack.
I do this for lunches at work and call them grown up lunchables
