lunch with chris o'donnell

Earlier this week, I was invited to the launch of the *new & improved* Lunchables, which now comes with a full serving of fruit in each package. To kick off the campaign, Lunchables has partnered with Feeding America to donate up to 1 million pounds of fresh fruit to food banks across the country.  By "liking" Lunchables via their Facebook page, you'll be helping the company reach their goal of aiding families in need. 

Okay, okay, so the fact that Chris O'Donnell is the "face" of this campaign & would be available for a brief interview (conveniently during my lunch hour!) might have also prompted me to attend. The father of FIVE (yes, five) became involved to show his support of the Lunchables Feeding America campaign & new healthier stance on meals for children. 

Well, what can I say. He's positively dreamy. And very easy to talk to. And completely normal & non actor-y. And did I mention dreamy? We talked about raising a family (his quite larger than mine!) & the importance of fruits & veggies in kids' diets. He was quite talkative & seemed honestly passionate about his involvement with Feeding America. Needless to say, I really enjoyed our conversation.  I also might have confessed to a minor obsession with "Circle of Friends" back in the day.


Staring adoringly into his eyes Asking serious journalistic questions



Despite what you might think of pre-packaged food, I have to commend Lunchables for recognizing the importance of fruit & for their collaboration with Feeding America. Once again, when you have a minute, please head over to their Facebook page & "like" them to help make a difference.


I was given promotional coupons & branded materials by Lunchables, but all opinions expressed herein are my own.
