Sporadic - like 1-2x a year in desperate situations. imho, lunchables barely qualifies as "food." The sodium content alone almost burns the roof of my mouth.

Never. It's not really food, so it would never occur to me to buy them.

Never have. I'm willing to overlook a lot of salt and fat (possibly more than I should) if something is really tasty, but they don't look appetizing to me.

I use them as a special treat on field trip days. My kids love them!

Never. I am not a health nut, but these are disgusting, unbelievably unhealthy crap. I read an article once where the guy who invented them was saying that he would never feed them to his own kids.

Maybe 1-2/year. Kids beg for them, but they're complete crap.

Never. I'd rather they buy the school lunch, which at least comes with a vegetable IDE and a salad ( that my I'd loves)

Oh, OP. You knew what the DCUM harpies would say. Why'd you ask? We do it once a week, too, like you. Moderation, balance. We're fine.

Never. I'm not against them, I guess. It just never occurs to me to buy them. Plus, aren't they expensive?

I used to do them once a week as a treat. Then it moved up to twice a week for a few weeks and I got disgusted and got rid of them all together. They haven't been missed.

We do them about 1x a week or 1x every other week. We used to let them buy lunch once in a while (the same ratio 1x a week or every other week), but then I heard they did not have time to eat as the lines were so long that I swapped the periodic buy a lunch to periodically giving them a lunchable. I figure it is a treat and no worse than a school, cafeteria lunch (as I know they do not eat fruit if they buy their own lunch).
