Some of what I bring is okay kind of bouncing and being tilted around in a backpack, but I bring other stuff that's not. It'll either leak pretty badly, or enough that there's some cleanup before eating, or microwaving and then eating something.
This works fairly well, but better with two containers than one. With one it often ends up tilted and, again, leaking. Today worked okay:
pic from another day, with a single container:
I do know there are thermos things that close tightly, but with those you'd have to heat the food before leaving home instead of microwaving at work. Maybe heavier than tupperware, too, tho I suppose they can be dishwashered okay.
I really only bring leftovers. Salad is kind of okay, but tomatoes can sometimes get juicy/watery. A mixed meat/veggie dish usually has sauce/juices, pasta about the same. And I do like my lentil soups--thick ones but also the hardest to carry. Some of it is stand-alone, some I take to the cafeteria and get rice and maybe some other dish on the side.
Comments or ideas? What do you do?
