Now that's really how you make your co-workers jealous. @Nancy - I think that's one thing people don't think about which is the high fat and cholesterol found in many fast food meals not to mention the high sodium content. @Lulu, wow, red beans and curried crab.

I know my co-workers wish they could have what I am having when they comment about how good it smells in our work kitchen. I eat healthier and feel better than they do. I enjoy a meal out just as much as the next person but more than once a week takes a toll on me - - I can't tolerate the high caloric & fat content of fast food/restaurant fare. My lunch usually consists of leftovers from home and if available, I include a little treat for dessert. I’ve been bringing my lunch to work for the better part of 16 years.

As a teacher, I only get 30 minutes for lunch but I can enjoy most of it since I only have to walk to the lunch room to heat up my food. Most of my coworkers run out to battle traffic and then have to scarf down their food in about 15 minutes so they don't get to enjoy it. I love bringing in home made mac and cheese and red beans and curried crab and heating it up. They always say it smells good and want to taste it. At least I know when I bring my lunch it will taste good...unlike some coworkers who have spent money on a lunch from a restaurant, only to find that some of the stuff does not taste good.
