Nelson Guerra · Answer 1

The second question is right and unbiased

The first question seems as if the asker is forcing that most people bring a sack lunch and that its sort of like a bandwagon

The third question calls the school lunch "tasty" (it probably isn’t)

Using adjectives in an "unbiased question" makes it biased

Ashleigh · Answer 2

The second question: Would you prefer to bring a sack lunch or eat a school lunch? This is unbiased because it doesn’t push one side or another with wording.
