You can find five different varieties in Canada: Turkey Cracker Stacker, Ham Cracker Stacker, Cheese Pizza, Pepperoni Pizza, and Nachos. In a press release, Lunchables said these lunch kits are “made with wholesome ingredients containing no artificial flavours or colours” and that “each variety of Lunchables offers a protein-packed lunch kit that parents can feel good about”
However, the return was met with some mixed reactions. Some Canadians were very excited that Lunchables were making a return.
