SNACK ATTACK
Mum slammed as ‘lazy’ for making 2 weeks of the SAME ‘horrible’ sandwich for her kids before freezing them to save time
A MUM has been slammed as ‘lazy’ for making two week’s worth of the same sandwiches and freezing them to save time.
One mum shared her lunchbox hack to keep things running smoothly in the mornings, as she gets her three kids ready for school.

She prepped 30 sandwiches to last a fortnight, sharing a clip of herself to laying out slices of bread on her table.
In a factory-line operation, she spreads butter on each slice before laying down one slice of cheese and one of ham.
She captioned her efforts “Lunch prep time”, as she said: “Back to school mum hack!
“30 sandwiches for 3 kids for 2 weeks!

“Freeze and take as needed.”
She then wraps the sandwiches in cling film and then tin foil "to keep the frostbite out";, before popping them in the freezer.
But her time-saving tip has been slammed online, as people reckoned freezing sandwiches was ‘lazy’, and questioned why they were all exactly the same filling.

Commenting on her video, one person said: “Fresh is best. . . meal prep for sammiches just seems lazy to me. Sorry. . . A for effort though. [sic]”
Another mum wrote: “I don’t know takes me 3 mins to make sandwich in the morning I don’t feel this even need prepping lol frozen sandwiches would be horrible.”
A third asked: “Also did you know vegetables exist.”

While this person pointed out: “There all the same tho spice things up [sic].”
But the mum fired back at the trolls, claiming her kids have never complained about the food.
She said: “They haven’t complained. But when I defrost the sandwiches they are fine, not soggy or anything.

“They don’t get soggy, and we pull them out and put them in lunch boxes at 7.30am and the lunchboxes stay in the fridge until lunch at 12.30.”
She also explained why they were all the same, saying: “I used the same ingredients for all coz I was able to get them on their specials but I’ll definitely try something else next fortnight.
“The ingredients expire by the end of the first week, and I only do my grocery shopping every two weeks.”
