[quote=Anonymous]I think packing cream cheese with no ice would probably be fine if she's going to eat it within 4 hours or so.  The thermos idea is also a good one.

I agree with PP who said jelly with bread is just not at all nutritious.  Why do you have to give her jelly?  If you can forego it altogether, that would be best.  Will she eat a cream-cheese sandwich without jelly?  If nothing else, I would personally give my kid a butter sandwich before a jelly sandwich.  The jelly offers no nutritional value at all.

Maybe it's worth trying to pack something other than a sandwich.  Does she like meat or cheese when not in sandwich form?  Maybe you could pack bread and some cubes of cheese and slices/pieces of meat she could finger-eat.

Another idea might be to try "butters" other than peanut butter -- like almond butter or cashew butter or sunflower-seed butter.  Personally, I think they all taste way worse than peanut butter (and I'm not a huge PB fan), but she may like one of them and not PB.[/quote]
