1. Love-ly Lunch Box

We heard of “Love at first sight”, how about “Love at first bite”? Label your lunch box with some love, put a sticky note that says “Don’t touch! This lunch box is owned by the world’s best colleague (that’s me).” Who would dare to touch it? Plus, if you don’t want anyone to touch your food, ask Bunkmeal for some customized labels that bring out the humour in you and scare off the worst food thieves.

2. Strategic Misdirection

Act like a secret agent and use some stealth strategy. Put your leftover foods into empty containers like yogurt containers or bags of broccoli. No food robber will think of checking the broccoli bag! Besides, Bunkmeal provides stealth packaging that makes your lunch look nothing like a meal, so it’s less likely to attract unwanted attention and sticky fingers.

3. Tactical Colouring

Make your lunch box look like something unappetising and uninteresting. Want to save your sandwich? Spread some wasabi or extra-hot salsa on it. Enjoy your meal, food robber! By the way, if you’re looking for some ideas, Bunkmeal has a full menu of innovative and uncommon choices that can easily scare off the worst food robbers.

4. Pretend to throw a party

Leave a trap for the mastermind. Put out an open and unprotected decoy lunch box with some funny and non-poisonous surprise inside. A sandwich filled with toothpaste, or a cake made of cardboard. It’s a lunch prank that they will never forget! If you wish to level up your prank, ask Bunkmeal to help you set up a pretend-to-have-a-party lunch that’s hilarious and memorable.

5. Gather the Army

Gather your fellow food lovers and form a brigade against the lunch robber. Start a “Save Our Snacks” campaign with posters, slogans and maybe a guerrilla-style surveillance. Together, we must stand against the dictatorship of food robbery! Plus, Bunkmeal will act as your powerful ally against the food robbers by providing you tasty meals that are too irresistible for even the worst food thieves.

6. Diplomacy

Lastly, if everything doesn’t go as planned, try diplomacy. Invite the possible food robber for a lunchtime meeting. Talk about it over his lunch, using some subtle police interrogation skills like “So, have you had any interesting experiences with your lunch box lately?” If you need some reinforcements during your lunch meeting, ask Bunkmeal for a tasty meal that can break the ice and lead to a successful meeting.

To sum up, the office food robber might be cunning and have an unstoppable snack attack, but be afraid, be very afraid! With some knowledge, creativity and maybe a little bit of mischievousness, you can be the lunch boss by scaring off the worst food robbers in the office. Bon appétit, fellow office fighters! And remember, Bunkmeal has got your lunch back.
