  • Perfect for Meal Prepping

    These have become my favourite gloves to have in the kitchen. They are a great size and super comfortable to wear without feeling restricted. I hate the smell of meat on my hands after cooking but using these gloves allow me to prep any meat without any lingering smell or residue afterwards. Highly recommend.

  • Great Gloves!

    These gloves are impressive. I've never been one to like the feel of cutting raw meat and have never liked the idea of plastic gloves touching my food however.

    After using the Handy Fresh food safe and powder free nitrile disposable gloves I'm hooked!

    The gloves are comfortable to wear and very durable. I found the gloves provided the protection needed against cuts or abrasions on your hands whilst also giving the feeling of not being on at all.

    The gloves are powder free which also meant my hands were as clean putting the gloves on as they were taking them off. I even wiped my hands over my black tights showing no residue. The picture shows my hand immediately after removing the gloves. You can see no residue or sweat on my hands.

    I did find however the gloves were little short at the wrists. My only recommendation would be to make them a tad longer.

  • Sturdy and comfortable

    These gloves were quite sturdy and did not break easily even when I used them for a longer period. I also found them to be comfortable. With some of the gloves I use I get my hands sweaty and these definitely did not have this issue at all. I would highly recommend these gloves.

  • Food Safe keeps my hands safe and smell free

    Having a nursing background, I have many years experience wearing nitrile gloves ???? . I know that these gloves are generally not as flexible but these particular ones are pretty good. I could move my fingers quite easily whilst wearing these gloves. Powder free so won’t leave any residue on your hand. Felt like they offered great protection and were strong. I love that these gloves are food safe so you can use them in the kitchen when you are preparing vegetables ???? that can stain your hands or foods like onions ????that will leave your hands smelling yucky ???? And the fingertips have grip elements on them to assist with holding slippery or oily items.

  • My food prep friend!

    I no longer need to cringe whilst cutting raw chicken and meat. With Ansell FRESH Gloves, I can cut away with pleasure. No more touching raw meat with bare hands. In fact, it feels like I'm not wearing any gloves at all! They're so soft, comfortable and they're not thick and bulky unlike some others. I also found them to be quite strong and durable. For hygiene and food safety purposes alone, I recommend that everyone have a box of these gloves in their kitchen drawer. With all the cooking I do, Ansell FRESH Gloves are my new kitchen bestie!

  • Super Handy

    These handy fresh food safe gloves are so handy especially in the kitchen. I use them when preparing and cutting chicken and other meats as I don’t like to touch the meat with my bare hands, after I’m finished I simply throw them out and I still have clean meat free hands! I have small kid sized hands and the (M) fit me and didn’t slip off or required me to adjust them like other gloves usually do, so I’m very happy with these.

  • Durable & comfortable

    I love to cook & often when we have small gatherings. I always like to make a grazing board with some homemade bites, such as sausage rolls, arancini & mini quiche. I hate the feeling of food stuck on my hands, so I often wear gloves, but what is worst is when food is stuck on the gloves & you have to constantly change them. These gloves are amazing. Not only do they fit comfortably & snug & don’t slide off, the food hardly stuck to them.

  • Saves my sanity.

    I can handle raw red meat with no problem Except mince. And I can't touch raw chicken.

    I use these nearly every day if I'm making chicken, and if I'm using mince to make burgers or meatballs.

    They don't leave residue, they aren't too small or big and they don't tear easily.

  • Perfect solution to cleaning between bathrooms.

    I am a serious germaphobe. I have to use different gloves cleaning the toilets, bathroom sinks, kitchen spaces etc. I don't like the thought of transferring germs around the place from the toilets or bathrooms. Disposable gloves are a god send for me! I found the Vileda Ansell Handy Fresh perfect for cleaning from bathroom to bathroom as well as perfect for handing the dog food and bowls. I did find the medium a little tight so would opt for the L next time. Easy to take on and off and water didn't not get in to the gloves when cleaning the baths etc. Highly recommend.

How to choose the best lunch box for school

When you’re searching for a kids’ lunch box, take the time to work out what will best suit their needs. If you make the right choice and invest in a quality one, it will last many years.

  • Box, bento or bag? If your child doesn’t like different foods touching, a bento lunch box is a great choice. Also, think about whether they prefer cut-up or whole fruit; a bento is better suited to cut food, while bags and boxes suit whole fruit. Bags are fantastic if you like to pack separate containers, like smaller bento or snack containers.
  • Freshness is a must – An insulated bag or box will keep everything cool and fresh until snack and lunchtime. But you can also get boxes that come with cold and ice packs. Remember, kids’ lunches often sit at room temperature for up to 5 or 6 hours before they’re eaten, so insulation and coolness are important. Check out how to keep school lunches safe in the heat.
  • Easy-to-clean design – Check if the box is dishwasher-safe, or for lunch bags, if they’re machine-washable.
  • Leak-proof – The last thing you want is a soggy mess at lunchtime, so if buying a hard lunch box, look for designs that are leak-proof with proper seals.
  • Child-friendly – Depending on your child’s motor skills and independence, you may need to start with a product that’s simple to open and close.
  • The right size – We tend to pack way too much in our kids’ lunches, so think about how much realistically you’ll need to pack for your child when choosing the size of their lunch box. You may also need to consider the size of their school bags.

What to put in kids’ lunch boxes

Health professionals agree that kids need a good balance of lean protein, grains, fruit and vegetables throughout the school day. Skip the processed food and try to reach for whole foods that pack a punch in the nutrient department. Here are some great ideas:

  • Grilled chicken or turkey wraps with fresh salad
  • Crackers and vegetable sticks with healthy dips like hummus
  • Whole-grain pasta with cherry tomatoes and your choice of cheese
  • Zucchini slice cut into rectangles for easy stacking in an insulated box
  • Almond-meal slice with raspberries or blueberries – or both!
  • Vegetarian sausage rolls – these freeze well and make a great meat-free lunch when cold.

  • That lunchbox comparison table is handy to have. It helped me make a decision on which lunchbox to buy next for my daughter who is starting kindergarten. I needed to upgrade her lunchbox but wasn’t sure which way to go. The table helped me with my decision. I ended up going with the BBOX and have found a cheaper lunch bag from a department store that it fits in.

  • I do not know if anyone else has picked up on this or not, but every bag mentioned in the table above is a ‘designer’ brand. There are plenty of more affordable options that aren’t over $40. I have never spent that much on a lunchbox – even from Smiggle. The cheaper brands last just as well too.

  • Getting ready for the return to school has started to kick in so this was a timely read. We have the yum box and i love it, it is so easy for my daughter to open and close on her own. I find the lunch cooler bags also a great idea however some days depending on what else needs to go to school, they can be quite bulky to include in the school bag. I need to do some more research this year as i like the idea of being able to watch it in the washing machine, that is a clever idea.

  • Along with all of the other back to school products; there is also a good range of lunch boxes available for people to buy. It has been fun to see the wide range of bottles and lunch boxes that are available for the new year for school and for work.

  • Lunch boxes have come such a long way since my eldest was a kid, he’s now 26! There’s really a solution to everything from food heating, cooling, dividers, pockets etc etc. Lunch boxes are a real fashion accessory and so on-trend these days. I personally love the Bento lunch boxes. They save on plastic and separate different foods.

  • I am such a huge fan of Bento lunch boxes and Bento. Food should be so many wonderful things; including delicious, fun, colourful and nutritious too. Lunch is a favourite meal because the body is ready for some more calories and a boost of energy. Food looks so good in Bento lunch boxes.

  • So so many fantastic options! We use the montii co ones for our kdis and swear by it. Its lasted 3 years so far and still standing strong, like new since the first day using it. They are so durable and i find cleaning them to be the easiest for us.

  • There are so many great lunch box option out there indeed ! I’ve always liked the Bento style lunch boxes for my kids. It reduces the use of plastic lunch bags and packaged food which aren’t very good for the environment and it encourages to present a good variety of foods (which is not only better nutrition wise but lao to prevent our kids from getting bored with same foods all the time.

  • There are some really fabulous options here. So many variations of colour, shape and size. I love the bento style lunch boxes, so handy to keep food separate and eliminate the use of plastic packaging. The machine washable bags are a great idea too. They can get grubby so fast, this would be so much easier to maintain

  • This has gotten much easier since my kids hit high school – they have strong opinions about their lunch boxes, so I don’t have to think about it so much anymore! However, I am strongly in favor of bento style boxes regardless of their age. They’re easy to clean, easy to pack, and invite appropriate sized portions.

  • Great article! Our kids are so lucky, when it comes to lunchboxes, they really are spoilt for choice. There are so many to pick from. Regarding sandwiches, my eldest son, used to hate sandwiches for school lunches. It wasn’t until many years later that I discovered that he’d throw out his sandwiches in the playground bins. My son’s an adult now and he still hates sandwiches. He only likes “hot” lunches. So glad he lives on his own now and can make his own “hot” lunches just the way he likes them.

  • This is super useful article and thank you. I can see so variety of lunch boxes from every store. Always wonder which one would be more convenient to use by little hands. I love some of these lunchboxes to give it a try for this year. And then decide to go with suitable ones

  • Wow, lunch boxes have really come such a long way from when I was taking a lunch box to school. Feel old, like “back in my day”, but we were lucky to have options like are available now. While I like some of these designs, I feel like they aren’t super practical.

    Reply

  • These lunchboxes are beautiful but are they really worth the expensive price tag? I have been through so many lunch boxes and bags over the years and found the best it to use an insulated lunchbox bag with ice brick and use small containers to keep individual items fresh and assessable.

  • I love the bbox lunch boxes. They are so reliable and tough when kids throw their bags around. Easy to wash and store. I have used the we can be tiny snackies at home too. The boys love choosing a certain animal shape. They wash well, are durable and great quality.

  • My kids are old enough now to pack their own lunches and I am so happy to see the great choices they are making. They take left over meals, cook food in the morning to take and now I am confident they aren’t throwing away sandwiches! I do have the chilly bags for them, I find they fit better into bags

  • Love our bento b.boxes. So easy to pack. I do however worry that they’re made of plastic, not metal….

  • My daughter uses a bento box now for work and sometimes an insulated bag in summer, but when she was at school it was a rectangular lunch box with no compartments. It was very easy to wash each day, just the box and lid, and it could still be filled with rolls/sandwiches and snacks.

    Reply

  • Lunchboxes are so important these days. Back in my day it was a brown paper bag or the exact same lunch box that everyone else had and there were three compartments. Today its such a fashion statement and as much as the lunchbox itself is judged so are the contents.
