The lunchbox is a miscellaneous item in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics

This was a promotional item created by Vault-Tec before the Great War and used in the company's advertisements. With the right schematics, it can be used to make bottlecap mines.

In Fallout: New Vegas, a lunchbox can be used to make a caravan lunch at campfires or a bottlecap mine at workbenches.
