If you brown bag your lunch and then store it in a communal refrigerator until lunchtime, chances are high that you’ve been a victim of the occasional theft of your prized midday meal.
Like socks in the dryer, sandwiches, yogurts, salads, even leftovers packed in Tupperware can suddenly go missing, without so much as a crumb on a coworker’s face to help the suddenly lunchless chump nail the culprit.
Well, those days may soon be over. A Manhattan-based designer has developed the Anti-Theft Lunch Bag: “Regular sandwich bags that have green splotches printed on both sides. After your sandwich is placed inside, no one will want to touch it,” according to the designer’s Web site.
The bags aren’t yet available, but you can send an e-mail to the designer, Sherwood Forlee, who will advise when they might become available.
