Do you take a packed lunch with you at work or buy fast food from a tuck shop?

I am currently a stay at home mom. However i use to work at a corporate headquarters for a major hardware chain. We were fortunate to have a cafeteria in one of the 4 buildings. They offered 2-3 main entrees for lunch, along with a salad bar, soup, even some desserts. Hot entrees, or delis sandwiches, and it was also open for breakfast from like 630-9...many still brought a lunhc, but most times i myself, bought from the caf, as it was very reasonably priced and convenient.

I am not currently working but when I was I always took a packed lunch in because it was far more economical and I knew what I was eating too. It gets so expensive eating out or buying sandwiches from the little shops, especially in London! There was a canteen there at work but sadly it wasn't subsidized so you ended up paying expensive prices for food. I would go in there as a treat once a week or near payday but otherwise I would take my own packed lunch which you were allowed to eat in the canteen which was unusual I admit!

I generally pack the food for my husband and my daughter. I think it is better than what we get from a tuck shop. Although my daughter sometimes eat out from the school cafetaria, but usually it is home made food for her and my husband's lunch pack.

Always took a lunch. When we prepared our evening meal we would always make a little extra that was taken for lunch the next day. Always would have something we liked and enjoyed for lunch.

I eat at home or if out with someone will have a snack somewhere but a healthy one unless I feel like something other than that ..littleowl

I work from home, so I almost always eat at home. I do pack food for my husband, though. He works second shift. Usually I make a lunch that is big enough to have plenty of left overs, and he takes it to work the following night. Over the weekend, we made lasagna, so that's what he had for dinner tonight. Today for lunch, I made pizza pasta, so he will have that tomorrow. Occasionally he is stuck out in the field and can't heat up anything, so I make sure we always have a few tuna kits, cheese and crackers, and jerkey sticks.

I worked at mcdonalds for a while and i was so sick of the smell that by the end of the first week i was taking my own food with me. IT was better for me and i welcomed the change in odours...it wasnt like i could just run home to get a meal either because it was almost an hour round trip to work and home.

when i worked i carried me something from home every day.

i prefer a home made food means packed lunch
