You bring lasagna to the pool?!!

Yes, I wrote " mini"--cut into tiny squares.

You bring mini lasagna to the pool?

Small pieces of lasagna, air-fryer polenta, pasta “muffins,” roast veggies, baby carrots, cheese sticks, tons of fruit, rice cakes, etc. at seim meets, buy from concessions.

What is a pasta muffin?

Definitely fresh fruit like everyone else said but our family favorite is I keep a bag of Oreo thins in the freezer in summer and throw them in the pool bag. We don’t limit sweets or anything so it’s not like a cookie is a rare treat but the frozen Oreo thins are ONLY a summer pool snack for some reason so my kids love them. Yes they have to be the thins, the regular ones will not get as crispy and cold.

We do hotdogs, put them in a bun, wrap in foil, they warm right up in the sun.

Same. Much less other crap to carry!

Do you really think cheese can spoil in a few hours of sunshine? All that will happen is that it melts.

Why oh why did you post this?

My entire family’s hands-down favorite is frozen grapes. Delicious and refreshing frozen, semi-frozen, or thawed. We always use that over any ice or ice packs.

My kids loved frozen go-gurts, watermelon “sticks,” baggies of goldfish, mini roll up sandwiches (turkey and cheese, cream cheese and cucumber, sunflower butter and jelly).

I haven't seen this mentioned yet: I bring yogurt smoothies or yogurt pouches in an old insulated bottle bag with ice packs.

My 5 year old also loves apple slices. I find they don't brown if I put a damp paper towel on top of the apple slices before putting the lid on the container.
