I have no idea what to make for lunch to go, growing up I had a sandwich every day at school. I don't want to buy as much fast food as I usually do.
Anyone have anything good? I already have a go-to breakfast, and dinner is fine because I can figure something out on the spot based on what looked good in the store that week.
Lunch is hard because I have to plan it, and I don't want to pack too little and something that isn't filling. Ideally want something that can be eaten cold.
i lived/worked in rural japan for a summer, like a small farming community on southern Kyushu. the "convenience" food was absolutely incredible. onigiri, ramen joints, those like fresh-made takeaway joints with older ladies in the back just making stuff. it was all so reasonably priced and fresh.
the US food system is like cavemen throwing rocks at the sun.
I lived in Tokyo and I kept telling myself that I should get out of the city and experience the countryside. But I rarely did. That was a mistake.
That's a great way to describe it. In fact - that's a great way to describe the US in general.
