Brought homemade meal
Brown bagged describes something brought from home in a plain paper bag rather than purchased at the destination.
Most commonly it refers to carrying lunch to work or school: I brown bagged it today.
It also describes alcohol concealed in a bag for public consumption where drinking is prohibited, or bottles brought to restaurants that don't serve liquor.
