Hard boiled eggs are a good cold lunch, and they're portable
I like glass plates cuz I read ceramic absorbs microwaves, meaning the plate gets hot but the food doesn't, whereas glass lets the waves go just to the food. meaning the plate doesn't get as hot but the food does. so pyrex is great
market walking distance to work. that's an enormous plus!
kitchen at work is huge, my last employer had a fridge, cupboard, sink & I bought a blender to make my fruit juice & whey protein post ride shake
I like cashews too. they are lower in purines so safe for gout sufferers like me (just can't have a lot)
+1 on the eggs. starbucks used to be walking distance at old employer. they had a snack with an egg, cheese, apple slices, peanut butter & small bagel. it was a meal really but for bike a commuter it was perfect about an hour before riding home. great energy source for the end of the day
