Try one of those arm and hammer boxes that you put in the ice box and leave it there over night or even a weekend. It should absorb the unpleasant odors. Another thing I would try would be Clorox Clean up. Obviously don't try the two at the same time. You never know what kind of chemical reaction you'll get. Just like bleach and ammonia. NEVER mix those two together. They form a fatal gas. I almost learned that the hard way. My brother that lived thousands of miles away called me out of the blue right when I was about to mix the two and he warned me about the consequences. He saved my life from that far away. I should have paid closer attention in chemistry in high school. Good Luck!!!

Mix baking soda and water and wash it leave it open to dry. Put some baking soda in a small container and place it inside everyday when he brings it home that should keep the smell out. It will also help kill the germs that are causing the smell.

Had some vinegar to the soap and water, the vinegar will absorb the odor.When he comes home clean out the Lunchbag, and insert a cup with 1/4th vinegar, and leave it in there, until you are ready to put his lunch in,and then remove,it. ..

I would suggest turning the bag inside out if possible and then dry it up in the sun light. This should eliminate the moist and the smell. Later you can wash the bag with Detergent and with Soda, preferably with hot water.

when food storage items get nasty... time for a new one. remember that's bacteria and germs.
vinyl is very porous material... just get a new one.. they're not that expensive.. not as much as your son's health.
:D
that's all.
it's better that way.. same should be applied with all food storage items...
