Tiffin/Lunch Box

"Tiffin box" is a term primarily used in South Asia, particularly in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal, to refer to a lunch box or food container used to carry meals, especially to school or work. It typically consists of multiple compartments or tiers stacked on top of each other, allowing for the separation and packing of different dishes such as rice, curry, vegetables, or snacks. Tiffin boxes are often made of metal, such as stainless steel, and are known for their durability and eco-friendliness compared to disposable containers. The term "tiffin" also refers to the midday meal itself in these regions.

"Lunch box" refers to a container or portable food storage device used to transport food, typically a meal, from one place to another, such as from home to school or work. Lunch boxes come in various shapes, sizes, and materials, including plastic, metal, and insulated fabric. They often have compartments or trays to keep different types of food separate and organized. Lunch boxes are commonly used to pack homemade meals, snacks, and beverages for consumption later in the day. They are convenient for individuals who prefer to bring their own food rather than purchasing it from outside sources.
