| I just discovered them this summer. They were a life saver this summer. How bad are they? |

Really unhealthy. Our private banned them.
You can make your own with healthier meats and cheeses. |

| I'd probably do precut cheese, lunch meat and crackers to cut down on cost/waste. You can use a small cookie cutter for the lunch meat. Kraft makes cracker cuts I believe. |

| They are very bad. So - never. I never gave them to my kids. Read the box, OP. |

Never! You can make your own.
PS - they were disgusting when I was a kid in the 80s. |

| Same meat from packaged packs of Kraft cheese and turkey, ham processed but only in circles. |

| I did this once. My kid complained about being teased mercilessly over it. So, never again. |

Too much fat Too much sodium Nitrates and other preservatives Just to start. If your kid insist maybe once a week but I have seen parents send them every day and I cringe. They are so unhealthy! Do a quick google search to see what the experts say. |

And it isn't balanced. Are you including fresh fruits and veggies as well? |

High in fat, sodium and contain artificial flavorings and colorings. No actual nutritional value. I believed this to be universally understood. Is this actually news to you? |
