Dad Draws Puns On His Daughters’ Lunch Bags For Years

For many years Dave Blumenthal has been drawing dadjokes and puns on his daughters’ lunch bags just to make them smile and yeah, more often than not, groan and exclaim “Daaaaaaad.” He publishes his masterpieces on @SandwichBagDad instagram account, and you can even get a book of his best cartoons on Amazon.

It started out as a simple shape carved into his daughter’s sandwich to make her smile at school lunchtime. Today, it has evolved into a collection of thousands of sandwich bag cartoon drawings, a social media following spanning the globe and a dedicated exhibition at Australia’s National Cartoon Gallery. In his own words: “My kids never know what they’ll get for school lunch each day. While they expect there will be a sandwich involved, what they don’t know is which eye-rolling pun or dad joke will adorn their brown paper lunch bag.”
