I used to use them, but now think they're kinda lame.

I guess I could see the point if you work somewhere without a refrigerator, but that's kinda rare for these parts I'd bet.

How often do you wash your lunch cooler? Or do you just febreeze it whenever it starts to get funky?

Don't like my lunch items warming up on the commute, even though it's only 20-25 minutes. Plus (as discussed in the other thread) it's an NC state item. Considering I work with almost entirely Va Tech/VCU/JMU people, I try to rep NCSU when I can.

^I rinse it out every so often, but everything I put in there is either bagged, wrapped, or in a container so it doesn't collect much funk.

Nah I don't use a lunch cooler. Sometimes I don't even throw my lunch in the refrigerator...if it's a PBJ sandwich or something similar, I'll just keep it at my desk.

holy shit, that guy is up to $7million already?

I remember being impressed when it was like $300k (and it's only a $50k campaign).

Needs solar panel + Li-on battery and he'd be set in my mind

^^ Nah, I have a stocked fridge at work and a decent cafeteria at my client's; I don't pack a lunch like a blue collar laborer.

I have a refrigerator at work, but I like to keep my food in one place and cold as I transport it from home to work.

I use one. I'm in construction and bounce around between job sites throughout most of the day. So when I first get to the office I put it in the fridge until I head out for the day. 90% of the time I'm eating lunch while driving around town.

I have one. I bring it to work on my long days and keep it in my office. Nothing fancy but as an added bonus, it's great for when I stop at the grocery store after work - I can chill my wine so it's ready when I get home

I have a pack it. Basically a bag made out of ice packs. I love that thing. It has robots on it.
