Getting a visual of what your kids lunch box and their lunch bag looks like together, how much extra you can fit in and whether they'll be able to close the lid isn't always easy when you just have measurements to work with. The Fridge To Go Medium insulated lunch bag is the oldest product in our cooler bag and insulated lunch bag range. They have been around for years and their quality and reputation speaks for itself.

We went through every lunch box in our store to see what fits inside the Fridge To Go Medium insulated lunch bag. Each of these lunch boxes will fit inside the bag with various room to spare. If you watch the video, most of the lunch boxes on this list have been photographed with this bag for a true, life size visualisation of what you have to work with.

After compiling the list, we also decided to photograph a selection of the lunch boxes and some of our accessories, including reusable cutlery sets made from bamboo, snacks, drink bottles and more. One of the most popular choices is always the largest bento box from Lunchbots, the Bento Cinco. Below, you will see it pictured fitting comfortably inside the Fridge To Go Medium lunch bag with room for a snack pouch from Chico Bag (these come in a set of three and are really versatile and sturdy), a couple of snack bars and some cutlery from To-Go Ware.

Jumping to another brand, the U Konserve range has two bento boxes. What makes these different from other stainless steel lunch box options is the leakproof lid. It's made from bpa free plastic and keeps liquids firmly in place during the day. This one is the medium size in the range and has removable bento dividers so it can be used as a regular box as well as a bento. Here it is in the OCEAN colour (pictured) and in a lighter SKY BLUE. This leaves room in the lunchbag for an apple, one of the Lunchbots Dips containers, the bamboo cutlery and a kids Eddy drink bottle from Camelbak.

The last photo in our photoshoot from this year is a simple one, we photographed it with a sandwich. This sandwich is made from Burgen bread and it is stored in a Stasher Reusable Silicone Bags. Kick disposable plastic zip lock bags to the kerb and replace them with one of these. They are super tough, LEAKPROOF, yep, totally leakproof, and you can even use them to reheat food in the microwave if you're taking it to work. In this lunch bag configuration, we have placed it in a bag with 2 of the Lunchbots Round snack pots (115ml in size), a banana and a set of cutlery. There's still plenty of room for a couple of snack bars if you need them.
