    I have done both and have sorta have streaks in the passed one way or another. given inflation if I was in office I think I would be inclined to pack nowadays.

    Packed, always. I make big batches on my day off, it’s time consuming but my spending and my cholesterol are both down.

    I don’t like to eat at work. If i do eat its usually a little junk food. Haribo gummis are a fave

      I did that for years but here lately I’m hangry beyond redemption by 11:30 and pretty much have to have lunch now.

    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

    My current job provides breakfast and lunch as a weird perk, but before this job I definitely packed my own lunches.

    I pack when I’m in going to be in the office and I keep a few cans of soup in my desk in case I forget. If I’m off site, I’ll expense something nearby. If I’m working from home I’ll usually make a salad or sandwich there.

    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.

    We like our kills fresh and always bring a mallet to work in order to capture the highest quality bats.

    In the before times I would bring or buy things to snack on but never really ate an actual meal for lunch. Now I work remotely and often have a real lunch but I still usually take as little time as possible and work while I eat. There’s been a handful of times that I’ve brought my laptop to a restaurant and worked from there. I don’t usually like having a real lunch break when I’m in work mode, I find it distracting and anxiety inducing.

    I suspect that a large portion of people who eat out everyday for lunch aren’t the most confident in their kitchen skills.

    Not everyone, of course, but I have noticed some correlation there.

      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.
