My friend Mina,
just returned from visiting her family in India,
Typically in India there are no school lunches. Children eat there lunchoutside with their friends..sometimes on tables, sometimes under a tree or on the playground. They bring their lunch from home in what is called a"tiffin". This is basically a steel lunchbox that stacks a few container on top of each other so that there are compartments for various food items. In it, there is typically a complete meal of rice, vegetables, and rotis(indian breads) and various other nutritious items from home. Sometimes children take these tiffins to school with them in the morning, and othertimes someone delivers a fresh meal in this tiffin to them before lunchtime.
