I don’t like to eat at work. If i do eat its usually a little junk food. Haribo gummis are a fave
I prepare at home for lunch: yogurt, fresh berries, trail mix, espresso and a peanut butter cup. Every day.
too broke to eat out that often. its ~$10->$18 for lunch here. west coast. i cook dinners for 4-6 so my partner and i can take lunch.
Neither. I try not to eat while I’m at work. They sell all the junk food at work, so it can be difficult to not give in to temptation. I might indulge in a couple of uncrustables each night, but that’s fine with me.

I have a fridge at work, so I just shop separately for groceries there. I usually make my own salads, but some weeks I shift to sandwiches or soups.
I quite enjoy getting out of the office for an hour each day and fortunately have several places to eat within easy walking distance.
Pack if it’s an overtime day. Usually just bring water and coffee though. I have too many allergies and dietary restrictions to safely eat out
I used to pack sandwiches but I got spoilt by my old break room having a toaster oven. So eating a cold sandwich in freezing temps really isn’t the move for winter. It’s also the meal where I don’t have to consider my wife’s vegetarian preferences. So I eat out often right now depending on what leftovers are at home.
I almost always bring lunch, but it seems I’m in the minority wherever I work.
Me too.
Both/either. Sometimes I meal plan but usually if a recent meal had enough leftovers I’ll do that. Also we can walk to get food or drive about 10-15 min
Pack . Way too expensive to eat from a vending machine or even to eat out
My employer makes food and provides snacks for the clients. Often there are leftovers, or enough to feed staff as well. We have fridges for storing that, and cold snacks. As well as separate countertop snack areas. Ideally it’s all for the clients, but we’re permitted to snack while working.
I work in a corporate environment that often has lunch catered for vips. I often wondered if you could actually survive by mooching off the leftovers
neither. my breakfast and lunch are both just a metric fuckton of coffee. then i eat giant dinner.
I did that for years but here lately I’m hangry beyond redemption by 11:30 and pretty much have to have lunch now.
I like eating out, it’s like my #1 luxury expense
Same here. I work 10-12 hour days, and it’s the only way to actually sit down for a bit in the middle of the day and take a break because if I bring a lunch, I’ll eat while I work.
