When Dad Packs Lunch…

Posted on September 3, 2009 at 04:03am

A few years ago my mum went away for a few days on a vacation, leaving me, my dad and two younger brothers to fend for ourselves.

My dad was making sandwiches for my brother’s lunch, and asked him:

Dad: Do you like beef?
Leon: Yeah.
Dad: Do you like Nutella?
Leon: Yeah, that’s nice.

Imagine his surprise when he opened his lunchbox to find a beef and Nutella sandwich inside.

    My goodness, this is SO reminiscent of my dad!! My mom went on a business trip once, so my dad had to pack my lunch. He slapped some sardines in between two slices of bread and made me a package of seeds in an elaborate saran-wrap package. On the plus side he cut my sandwich into a star shape so I wouldn't notice.

    My brother likes to eat peanut butter, jelly, mayonnaise, and cheese sandwiches. :6

    Oh wow this brings back memories. My mom went back to her home country for the summer, leaving my dad to take care of me and my two younger brothers. We went on a road trip somewhere and he packed sandwiches for the road. They consisted of crunchy peanut butter and Kraft singles. Yes, peanut butter and fake cheese. It was disgusting, but we ate it all because that was all we had brought.

    Hahaha, that's funny, 'cause I love peanut butter and Kraft cheese sandwiches! When I was little, my grandma used to make them for my brother and me. She didn't know what Kraft singles were, just that they were supposed to go in sandwiches. My brother and I always ate what we were fed, (especially if the food's from Grandma), so now I love them, because they remind me of her. :]

    lol, that's nothing. i remember back 1st grade when my dad had to make me lunch once because my mom was sick. he had no idea what to put in my sandwich so he asked me what i like.

    Result: i ended up with an extremely soggy peanut butter, jelly, ham, relish, ketchup and who-knows-what-else sandwich. i think i remember taking one bite out of it before chucking it in the garbage :s

    the twist in all this is that my dad's a chef so i have no idea what compelled him to even think that it was okay to even make this hellish concoction, much less have me eat it.
