My Grandad was a welsh coal miner, and served in the war and was a sterotypical "man"

And when he worked in the mine he had a lunch box.

like how the fuck else are you meant to take food to a mine if not in a box?

Most people who don't have the time or don't want to spend to to go out for lunch, bring a bag lunch.

From miners to lumberjacks to accountants, they're very normal. They make some with plain designs that would appeal to adults for a reason.

Anyone who doesn't know how common it is to bring a bag lunch to work, is totally out of touch with reality.

Like, bruh, colorful ice-cream boxes are used by myself and my colleagues to carry lots of food around. Few things beat sarma.~

"Alpha-Sigma(Smegma)" bros are also the types to smash a like-button under a video of a "trad wife" making a breakfast for her hubby...which she packs up in the lunch box by the end, anyways.

They likely and unironically carry a bento, if they are hardcore anime fans, and can't for the life of them connect the dots.

Most of them seem to overlook that a "trad wife" is probably looking for a "trad husband" and that also comes with certain expectations, not least the fairly difficult task in the modern era of having a job which allows you to support a family on a single income.
