Woman gets slammed for making husbands packed lunch every day

The stack of sandwiches, cheese, crackers, fruit and muesli bar look inoffensive, but this photo of a builder's lunchbox has sparked a row online.

After his wife posted the image of the daily packed lunch she makes for her tradie husband, Facebook users were quick to pile on the woman's efforts - but not because of the contents of the meal.

Instead, the issue appeared to be with the fact that she was making his lunch in the first place. No one seemed to acknowledge her reasoning, which was that it was "cheaper, fresher and healthier" than the food he could buy at his work site.

Responses to the image, shared to the Budget Friendly Meals Australia Facebook group, included one woman asking: "Do we have to feed them during the day now too?"

The page's administrators stepped in to delete a string of comments for being too controversial and posted: "No more comments about whether you agree or disagree with packing your significant other's lunch for them.
