North America, alone, with the United States of America in the first place, and then Canada in the 2nd place represents 87.2% of all the families who visited Teuko.com to get kids’ lunch inspiration. Europe and Asia remain at the 2nd and 3rd place this year.

Top Foods in Kids’ Bento Lunch Boxes in 2022
Fresh and nutritious foods kept on filling our kids’ bento school lunches again this year. This 2022 Top Foods in Kids’ Bento Lunchboxes ranking was made possible thanks to the food tags that our Teuko Friends kindly indicated for each lunchbox idea they shared on Teuko.com.
Strawberries are this year’s big success, while they had 3rd place in 2021. Cucumber, the #1 food in 2021, now becomes 2nd. Astonishingly, families paid particular attention to what their children were drinking too this year, as the food tag “Water” is 3rd (while it was 7th in 2021). Then, carrots and cherry tomatoes come respectively in 4th and 5th place. Blueberries are still in the top 10 this year but, with its 6th place in 2022, became less favored. The only dairy that made it to the 2022 Top 10 is Cheddar Cheese. And, last, for the 8th, 9th, and 10th place, families tagged “Sandwich“, “Ham“, and “Bread“…
Classic, simple foods, were the real winners of 2022!
So… the next thing you would wonder is: what themes were the most present with our kids’ lunch boxes! Let’s discover, indeed, the…
Top Lunchbox Themes of 2022
It seems that our Teuko Lunchbox Community mainly followed the seasons, with “Winter”, “Spring”, “Summer”, and “Fall”, respectively in the 2nd, 3rd, 8th, and 9th place of the most used theme tags. Additionnally to that, an eco-conscious effort was made, one lunchbox at a time, with more lunch boxes packed and tagged with “Plant-based Cuisine”. It’s actually the number #1 theme tag this year! And with the theme tag “Rainbow Color”, in the 10th place, our Teuko Team is glad and proud that our broader mission to make our world a better place for our kids, with variety in foods and less carbon footprint, is shared by our community of lunch-packing families! And, of course, as we can see with the theme tags “Halloween”, “Cartoons”, or even “Valentine’s Day”, respectively in the 4th, 5th, and 7th place, it seems that, together, we had so much fun, and we put so much love into our kids’ lunch boxes!
lastly, what were the lunchbox accessories that were used by Teuko families? Let’s discover the…
Top Lunch Accessories for Kids in 2022
So, for the lunch accessories for kids that our Teuko Lunchbox Community used the most in 2022, we did not do one Top 10, but two Top 5, in order to separate the lunch boxes from the other accessories.
Thus, for the bento lunch boxes category, we’re delighted to see this year (drumroll please!): Planetbox as the Teuko Families’ Top Choice! In 2nd place, there was Sistema lunch boxes. Then, from 1st place in 2021 to 3rd place this year, we have the Yumbox lunch boxes. In 4th place, we discover the Omiebox lunch boxes, that combine hot and cold foods together, in one place. And last, in 5th place, the Bentgo Kids lunch boxes.
Regarding the Top 5 Accessories we found the most in the Teuko Kids’ lunch boxes: in 1st place, we have the Silicon Molds, as they help separate foods in the box in a very colorful way; in 2nd and 3d place, we have, respectively, eyes food picks and leaves food picks; behind, in 4th place, food cutters that exchange their place with leaves picks this year compared to 2021; and last, a novelty in our top 5 accessories, compared to 2021, the bamboo cutlery set, which proves the willingness of our Teuko Lunchbox Community to be more eco-friendly, one lunchbox at a time!
