Man… that looks like a lovely lunch. We don’t get that kind of thing in America while at work, that I’ve seen. Hell, we don’t really even have cafeterias anymore.

When I worked at Bosch a about 4 years ago in the US, they had a really solid healthy lunch option like this for $5. Sadly, I think they did away with it during COVID. It definitely exists at some larger companies though.

That’s because it’s real food. America should try it sometime

I eat like this at home, I’m a reasonably good cook. What’s the point of your comment?

Microsoft offers similar or even better lunches at similar prices for employees. I gained 15 pounds during my first six months there. LOL

I left there years ago, but thanks. And yes, Microsoft produces some very shitty products that are worse than all their competitors, yet they retain the lion’s share of the market.

Looks super tasty and healthy! Is this a regular occurence or an outlier in your company?

Honestly, it’s not mine, I found somewhere else, but it seems to be a regular occurrence from what I’ve seen

I pay about 8 euros for something similar, also in Denmark, but my employer covers it. It’s not always great but it’s way better than bringing anything myself.

In NL. €3.50 for a bread and salad bar, cup of soup, and a mystery warm dish.

Mystery dishes in the past have been tacos, skewers, meatballs, broodjes.

Lunch in the Netherlands is a worst kaas scenario.

I work in a kitchen so it’s usually a bit of leftovers, but restaurant-quality leftovers, you understand.

I like cooking at home, do you have any tips for me on how to get quality ingredients? The market is best for me so far and it’s nice being able to ask questions to the merchants.

Expat shops and wholesale places if you can get an account, I suppose.
