Amazon Essentials for Healthy Eating On-the-Go

Jan 23 2026
Want to eat healthy food anywhere you go? Pack it up and take it with you! We pulled budget-friendly Amazon’s-Choice picks for five essential items you need, plus a whole slew of travel-friendly snacks and drink mixes… All of it ready to go wherever you go.



#1: A Lunch Bag You Love

DALINDA Insulated Lunch Bag

Chances are you’ll often be toting your lunch bag with you, so choose a functional one you’re not embarrassed to be seen with! This sleek & simple leakproof find is lined with thickened waterproof aluminum foil and three layers of insulation. It comes in a ton of colors and starts as low as $8. Plus (the three little words we love to hear): It has pockets! Going for a different vibe? This stylish bag caught our eye too.



#2: Packable Food Containers

Bentgo 1-Compartment Meal Prep Containers

These simple containers get the job done! Lightweight with a 4-cup capacity, they’re reusable, long lasting, and safe to put in the microwave, freezer, and dishwasher. Grab this set of 10 BPA-free containers + lids for under $13. How pretty is that mint green color? (Looking for containers in many shapes and sizes? This pack is also an incredible deal.) HG tip: Save leftover plastic utensils from takeout orders to use on the go, or pick up a travel set.



#3: Cold Packs

Cool Coolers Ice Packs

Keep your food fresh and cool without filling your lunch bag with bulky ice packs. Pick up this set of four slim packs made from leakproof, BPA-free plastic. Right now, it’s only about $8. Or add a little whimsy to your day with adorable packs that look like yetis!



#4: A Hot/Cold Travel Mug

WETOWETO 20 oz. Tumbler with Lid

We’re not sure why pricey travel tumblers became such a hot trend… especially when a mug like this does the job for under $10! Keep your hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold, thanks to the double-walled vacuum technology. It fits most car cup holders (a MUST!) and is coated with an anti-sweat powder to keep the outside dry. Upgrade alert: This bundle includes an extra lid, 2 reusable straws, a straw cleaner, and a detachable handle—all for under $19.



#5: A Large Water Bottle

Sahara Sailor Water Bottle

The tumbler is for fun drinks—this is for your hydration! This 1-liter bottle has motivational time markings, which we love, and it has an easy one-hand click-open cap. BPA-free, leakproof, and it has a hole to allow air flow while you chug. You’ll also get a cleaning brush and wrist lanyard… and did we mention it’s only $10?!
