As kids we had some killer cool lunch boxes. There was a Batman one for a little while in 5th grade that was totally hot. A couple years before we’d asserted our lunch box cool with a flashy red Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles number, but we eventually lost touch with our fans when we sported that Dick Tracy lunch box in seventh grade. It could have been worse, of course. Had we ever shown up with one of the items featured in The Best Article Every Day’s listicle of The 10 Worst Lunch Boxes Ever, like the Junior Nurse box below, we would probably still be in hiding. That said, we thought of some worse ones, which we’ve included after the jump.

Old People Lunch Box

Doubles as an urn.

Backgammon Lunch Box

Coolest game ever! (Seriously though, we love backgammon.)

Emergency Lunch Box

When packing a lunch is a matter of life and death.
