June as Lock&Lock “National Pa-Baon Month”

Starting my first post for this month with Global brand Lock&Lock as they declared June as Lock&Lock “National Pa-Baon Month”. The company will launch tips and recipes on preparing healthy baon choices that are easy to prepare via its Facebook page, Lock and Lock-Philippines; and Instagram, LockandLockPH. The company already introduced trendy Lunch Bags containing Lock&Lock food containers with the revolutionary 4-locking mechanism and resilient silicon seal. You can be sure that your child’s baon is kept fresh and safe longer without having to worry about any spillage. It is microwave, dishwasher and freezer safe too.



The campaign is timely and relevant for a student like me. I must say that we are actually users of Lock&Lock. I prefer having packed food or baon because I don't like waiting in long line in school canteen. I also like what my mom cook for me and my brothers.



Bringing baon is a tradition that is not commonly practiced anymore due to the fast-paced lifestyle we live in. It is more convenient for parents to give children money to buy food in school. The problem arises in the quality and nutritional content of the food they buy. Preparing baon takes effort, but it is a sacrifice that is worth it considering the dangers of unhealthy food choices on school children.   The 8th National Nutrition Survey of the Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI) revealed that 9% of pre-school children aged 5-10 are overweight or obese. Among adolescents and teens 10-19 years old, the number is higher at 13%.  Overweight and obese children are more likely to stay obese into their adulthood and have a higher risk of developing diseases associated with obesity like Type-2 diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, various forms of cancer and other disorders at a younger age.
Lock&Lock invited Bento Mommas who gave us a demo on how to make bento. It was actually so fun because I won 2nd place (beating my mom who won 3rd place).



Mom's blogger friend won 1st place
