More specifically, make it to lifehacker.com – [link here]. Wow indeed. We Indians, have been taking tiffin carriers for ages. Apparently American steel workers used to take such carriers but of steel. But now, lifehacker says the below:
If you’re not content with smooshing all your food into a mini-cooler or a brown bag, behold the stackable, food-separating, shiny awesomeness of a tiffin carrier lunchbox.
Tiffins—derived from the Indian word for snack—are the Indian equivalent of the iconic steel lunch boxes that mid-century working men in United States carried. Essentially a tiffin is a series of stacking containers and lids secured by a tension clip on the side.
And they have linked to a website called happytiffins.
But the dang-mother-of-all-gods-what-the-h*** moment is, when you read the below:
Prices range from $12-$25, depending on the number of tiers and size you select. The Tiffins are made from food-grade stainless steel, so they’ll last you for a lifetime and provide endless easy conversation-starters at lunch tables.
$25 for a tiffin box !!! Hmm, let me see, 25×50 (approx) = Rs. 1250. You can get 5 tiffin boxes in India for that ! ROFL.
nice to kno the tiffin carrier has made a full circle and gone back to its original home. Under the current scenario it is the best way to conserve earning.
oh yipeee, they are finally here! That’s good to know!
May be they are”Export” quality….!?
Haha satya. Highly possible 🙂
