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.

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

[-] DarkSpectrum@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

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

[-] RubberElectrons@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

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

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months 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 4 months ago

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

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months 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 4 months ago

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

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

I know, gotta pay for it 🙄

[-] jupyter_rain@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 4 months ago

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

[-] Servais@dormi.zone 12 points 4 months ago

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

[-] Moghul@lemmy.world 11 points 4 months ago

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 4 months 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.

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

[-] xilliah@beehaw.org 1 points 4 months 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 4 months ago

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

[-] anzo@programming.dev 6 points 4 months 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 4 months 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 4 months ago

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

[-] Shellbeach@lemmy.world 6 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months 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

[-] GBU_28@lemm.ee 4 points 4 months ago

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

[-] magi@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 4 months ago

More than I eat for lunch lol

[-] federalreverse@feddit.org 6 points 4 months ago

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

[-] crispy_kilt@feddit.de 5 points 4 months ago

That looks really nice. I'd like this

[-] Aux@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago
[-] Professorozone@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I'd be hungry again in like 10 minutes.

[-] eutampieri@feddit.it 1 points 4 months ago

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