"Brown Bagging" has fallen out of use because hardly anyone has the brown bags anymore ... There used to be two ways you got lunchbags. One was that you bought a batch of them at the grocery store. The other was that you purchased small items at a grocery or variety store and they were given to you in the small brown bag that just happens to be the right size for a lunch.
Well ...
Stores don't use those brown bags anymore, you get plastic. And the supermarkets only have the full-size brown bags, and they hide them under the cash registers. You have to ask for them special ("Can you bag me paper in plastic?") It doesn't make the plastic bag any stronger, that's what double bagging is for, but the traditional brown bags do keep your stuff standing up straighter, and the bread doesn't get squished.
Anyway.
If you take your lunch to school or work or whatever these days, you usually have some kind of special vinyl lunch bag to take it in.
Mine has the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on it, but only because I couldn't find a Star Wars or a SpongeBob. I actually have trouble cramming stuff in there sometimes (grown up dinners are bigger than kid lunches) so I've lately been using a gift bag. That has Star Wars on it, so it's all good.
