    We can bring it luchbag / coolers... just no metal. No metal utensils or cans. I use a soft cooler from REI that does the trick.

    Everything clear here in NC. Clear bags and all food must be in clear wrapping, clear cup, or unopened clear bottle. Oh the joys of
    working in a max custody facility.:laugh:

    Everything clear here in MN too.
  • I work for the US Federal system and we can have cans just no metal utensils, and everything is sent through a screener and we walk through a metal decetor
  • At the county jail here we are only allowed to bring in single serve items that are packaged and sealed. Mind you I Start at 5:45pm and get lunch at like 1am.

    NSW Australia, we have clear bags although the items within don't have to be clear. We put our bags through an x-ray machine and are wanded with a hand held metal detector. Drinks have to be in sealed unboken containers.
