"As an employee of Laptop Lunches, I wanted to share a great success story from one of our customers with an Autistic child. Her son has multiple food allergies and autism. He loves to have his food ‘framed’ for him in little boxes… Before they purchased the Laptop Lunch System, they didn't realize how much they would use it… They have taken it to restaurants, where he often can't eat the foods available or can only enjoy a limited selection. They have also taken it to Occupational Therapy appointments, where he has feeding therapy, and to picnics in the park. He just loves his lunch box, and he eats more than he would with just a brown bag lunch."
