Hot Lunch Set II (2017-2023)

The Truly Me 2017 Hot Lunch Set comes with a pink tray, two tacos, rice, salad, apple, milk container with straw, fork, and napkin. The tray is sturdy and similar to previous editions except for the color (have you ever seen a pink school lunch tray?). The fork is also similar to previous sets and is made of lightweight metal. The napkin is paper. The two tacos are my favorite--realistic looking and not attached to each other. The rice is exactly as AG describes it {"a clump of rice"). The milk carton is a substantial thickness and the straw is plastic, so both should hold up to either display or play. My two least favorite parts of this set are the apple and salad. The apple....looks like a Macintosh, but the scale seems off to me. Yes, Costco carries some of these Franken-apples, but a smaller one would have been better IMO. The shading of the apple is realistic. What can I say about that salad? I actually had to read the back of the box to see what it was supposed to be. My daughter also had to really examine the top to figure out that those red things are tomato slices. It looks cheaply made and not well thought out. I give this set a C for quality and realism, B for child play value.
