       The past can't be changed but now that your mom knows the friend
       will make lunch, she can prepare for next year. She can give a
       heads up that it was "sweet of you to pack a lunch last year,
       but I'm looking forward to my once a year burger so please don't
       through the trouble of making lunch for me." Something like
       that.

       That's EXACTLY what I thought of. As for worrying about it
       having been in the friend's handbag, I'm going to assume it was
       properly wrapped to stay as fresh and sanitary as possible.
       Rose Red also had some excellent advice for next year. Mom
       definitely should tell the friend (maybe a few times) how much
       she's looking forward to her carnival food treat.

       Same here! I would have just "saved it for dinner" and queued up
       anyway.
       And I agree with the idea of this food not being properly
       stored. An hour or so, ok. But all morning would have made me
       think twice about eating anything like that if it hadn't been in
       an ice chest at least!
       And yeah, for next year, just tell the friend in advance, now
       that your mum knows the friend's intent.
