The Guardian posted a good article today about the cost of work lunches:

It is certainly true that I never buy anything from the sandwich trolley that comes round three times a day (even does bacon rolls!). The cost far outweighs the quality or the satisfaction that comes from eating a sandwich from a carton.
Freya and I tend to adopt the method of making too much for dinner and bringing the leftovers in for lunch the next day. Sometimes I’ll actually make two dishes the previous night – one for dinner – one for lunch.
My favourite recently – generating the most curiosity – was the Parsley, Walnut and Anchovy Pesto.
So – I plan on creating a new category and putting a bit more focus on lunches that you can bring in or easily prepare with just a kettle, microwave and toaster.
