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

Lunch : 1 box of salad (lettuce/tomato/carrots/olives/beet/tofu/radish/berries) with very little salt/lemon juice/herbs/olive oil AND one medium chappati. 4pm: one piece fruit (banana/apple/pear, etc). 6 pm: one biscuit, some desi snack (2-3 spoons), 5-10 nuts, cup of desi tea. Dinner: 4 chappati, one bowl vegetable, one thick bowl daal, 2-3 spoons rice, 200 ml butter milk. Walk 45 min everyday. Have been eating this since several years, no weight gain/loss, generally healthy.
