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.

[-] DarkSpectrum@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago

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

[-] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

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

[-] skyspydude1@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

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.

[-] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

I work for an energy company in the US, only wish we had healthy looking lunch like this. Ah well..

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

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

[-] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Yeah but windows 11 is a war crime lol... Jk I'm glad you're getting cared for

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

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.

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 0 points 3 days ago

Well not for that price, but there are restaurants that serve food like this

[-] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I know, gotta pay for it 🙄

[-] MadBob@feddit.nl 8 points 3 days ago

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

[-] xilliah@beehaw.org 1 points 2 days ago

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.

[-] MadBob@feddit.nl 2 points 2 days ago

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

[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

I'd be hungry again in like 10 minutes.

[-] jupyter_rain@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 3 days ago

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

[-] Servais@dormi.zone 12 points 3 days ago

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.

[-] slazer2au@lemmy.world 9 points 3 days ago

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.

[-] anzo@programming.dev 6 points 3 days ago

Ausländer im Germany, 7€ for a potato's soup with one sausage cut in pieces. Or, a schnitzel with fries. Or, noodles with bolognese. And... I pay for it with my salary.

[-] pumpkinseedoil@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago

If you pay with your salary I assume that means it gets subtracted from your gross salary? Which is better than paying directly.

Still overpriced

[-] anzo@programming.dev 1 points 2 days ago

Oh no. I meant that I pay as "normal".

[-] crispy_kilt@feddit.de 5 points 3 days ago

That looks really nice. I'd like this

[-] Shellbeach@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Honest question: is that enough for lunch? I'm 1,57m 55kg and I feel like I eat more than that. Although it's hard to gauge the quantity of the mystery meat bowl

[-] magi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago

More than I eat for lunch lol

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

My dude that's yogurt and 2 plates of varied food.

[-] federalreverse@feddit.org 6 points 3 days ago

This one actually looks good. Decent amount of veggies too.

[-] eutampieri@feddit.it 1 points 3 days ago

I’m super envious… do you have to pay it out of your pocket or is it paid by the employer?
