Best Cooler

[Cajun_country]

Is there any favorite or recommended ice cooler on this board? In the past we've brought a back pack, but I really would like to bring some fresh fruit, and maybe frozen bottles of water since we are going in May/June. I think i've read they allow coolers that are 15x18 (soft and not hard shell).

We bought a Norchill cooler for our Florida trips. We have kids with severe food allergies so we have to travel with some amount of safe foods for them.

They are a bit bulky in comparison to the cheaper ones (for the amount of food you can fit), but work really great. You can fill them with ice and they won't leak on you and they keep things cold even in the hot Florida weather for a pretty long time. We were able to strap it over our stroller, but if you aren't using a stroller I'd consider a locker depending on the size you need.

I read a zillion reviews and it was between this and the Polar Bear brand.
