Just wanted to see what Desi's normally eat during office hours and if I was doing anything out of the ordinary.
I am a south Indian and my lunch usually consits of :
one normal size plastic tiffen box (got from a $ store for $1) filled to the brim with Rice and premixed with a stew (mostly non veg). One the end of the tiffen box would be subji.
I also eat a small subji box of Grapes and baby carrots. I drink 2 cups of coffee each day.
I have seen that a north indian lady in my office eats just one or two small roti's with Subji. She also cuts cucumber / carrot pieces and eats them.
What are your food habits at your office from 9-5 (provided you are a desi).
Thanks for the replies.
Peace out
