Do you use a brown bag, or do you have an actual lunchbox? Is it insulated? How much food do you bring, and what types of food?
Thanks in advance, I’m super interested by this type of relatively mundane stuff.
For myself I usually bring some kind of sandwich in a paper bag, nuts/dried fruit in the bags they come in from the store, and tea in a thermos. All of those things in my backpack.


My job has a canteen, so I spent several years eating there.
This year, they increased their prices at the same time as my rent went up, so I’ve started bringing in my own lunch. Every couple of Sundays, I make a huge pot of brown rice and beans and parcel it out into takeaway containers. Those things are airtight and hold enough for a sensible meal.
