What are some minimalist (boring) lunch cultures/practices from around the world? Did you have boring lunches as a kid?

I've heard Dutchies basically just eat this day in day out and it's similar in Norway.

Half the shit you see in any modern office. Lean Cuisines or similar frozen meals, ramen or cup noodle, sandwiches. When it isn't that, it's usually fast food. It's all boring dogshit.

I am Dutch and always in physical pain when my plebian collegues eat the same dry ass cheese sandwhich every fucking day for lunch.

I bet they eat have cooked potatos for dinner every day. Spices forbidden.

Its mainly small town folks who stick to this regime to be honest.

Dude I worked with on construction would literally boil like 6 eggs and keep them peeled in a bag in his jacket so they kept him warm of a morning before occasionally just pulling it a random boiled egg now and then to munch down upon.

If you don't want to make tomato soup, you could warm up a small thing of pasta sauce for dipping and it's good.

Do some adults really have ham and cheese sandwiches on the regular as a work lunch?
You know, just two slices of white bread and some cheese and ham and that's it?

I'm Indian and don't like taking Indian food to work. Tastes good, but it stinks up the office for hours, which I know isn't pleasant for anyone other than the guy who's eating the food. I've been on the other end of that many times.
