Whaja have for lunch today?

[singlemalt]

went to a mexican place. two tacos. flour tortillas. one chicken. one beef.

man am I stuffed.

[singlemalt]

so I was the only one who had lunch today. . .

well if you anorexics don't want to eat, fine by me.

yeah, I had dinner too.

[K&D]

hey,

on monday's and wendsday's i don't get to have lunch due to the fact that i have class from 11-4:20, i did eat a breakfast sandwich with sausage...for dinner, i had hot dogs, yeah for unhealthy college life!

[Lightning Rod]

three beers and left-over pizza

[abcrystcats]

The usual: a prosaic McDonald's #6, which is --

a medium Coke
french fries
and a (Requiem, please)

CHICKEN SANDWICH.

I am sorry. I got off the vegetarian diet after a few months stubborn resistance. I got this job in May. Around the job there are about four places to eat. They are: McDonald's, Taco Bell, an expensive and lousy Chinese place that can't prepare tofu to save their lives, Kentucky Fried Chicken, and a Cici's Pizza.

I resisted for a few months, and then gave up. I don't even much care for the taste of meat. It grosses me out. It feels weird, eating someone else's muscle tissues for nourishment. But I don't like the very limited alternatives, either.

Eventually, I suppose I will go back to being a vegie. I always do. Now it's the vegie diet that feels normal and the meat-eating that feels weird.

I need to get out of this job and into something more lucrative and in a better community. That's it.

[firsty]

monkey noodles and a can of military issued emergency water.

[singlemalt]

l-rod -- while in college I blew almost all my money on pizza and beer. the rest, I squandered.

lovingpenfull -- banana pancake sounds great.

firsty -- you crazy!

A cup of Campbell's bean w/bacon soup blended in the blender, heated in the microwave. Chased it down with a large bottle of spring water and a little later, a pain pill and a screw driver topped off with some soda water. Damn dentist can take the joy outa lunch. But tomorrow, I'm going to splurge! Campbell's tomato soup, creamy with 2% milk.... mmmmm... To save on dental bills and associated pain, I've been considering becoming an an anorexic. Bulemia was tempting but the thought of it made me puke.

[judih]

no one says "lunch" enough.
in fact, in Israel, no one says lunch.

In school, we have breakfast break at 10.
There is no lunch break. But if there was, it wouldn't be called "lunch".

so, since i've lived here, i've had no lunch (27 years now)

but thanks for asking and bon appetit.

doreen, still hurts? damn!

[Doreen Peri]

judih - More work today to fix what they screwed up. Should be it for a while. (crossing fingers)... in a few days? I'm having LUNCH!

Why don't they say lunch in Israel?

Some people I have known called the three meals breakfast, dinner, and supper. A regional thing, I think. Is that what they call the three meals in Israel? Or you only eat 2 meals.

I usually only eat one meal then nibble throughout the rest of the day. Sometimes I have breakfast for lunch or dinner. I love breakfast food.

i've always thought that breakfast-dinner-supper was a british thing, while breakfast-lunch-dinner was the american version.

then i've read that it was a class-issue - that the middle/upper class folks called their meals breakfast-lunch-dinner, as the family of the house usually had their main meal of the day in the evening, so the staff had to eat their main meal at mid-day, and that that was why some working-class people still called the mid-day meal dinner.

so i figured that dinner must be the main meal of the day, independantly of at which time of the day it was taken.

here, we call it "frühstück" (literally: early piece), "mittagessen" (midday eating) and "abendbrot" (evening bread).

anyway - what did i have for lunch today?

nothing yet, as it's still morning... but we've head potatoes, fennel, and cheese au gratin yesterday and will indulge in rice, leek slightly steamed in walnut oil, and mushrooms today.
