I know, I know, packing your lunch doesn't sound like fun at all, well, not unless it looks like the photo above. Let's skip through 5 reasons it may not be so bad after all!

1. It's a great lunch-time conversation starter, assuming your food doesn't contain locust beans (iru, the world's most sensational ingredient). If it does, you shall be sitting by yourself, my friend!

2. It's probably cheaper than buying lunch.

3. /4. You should take your lunch to work or school, well, because you are such an awesome cook and someone does have to eat it or because you are the worst cook who ever walked the face of the earth and you need to improve your cooking skills with practice! It's a win-win! 

Psst! YouTube is great for learning how to make new dishes and to improve your culinary skills! 

5. Taking your lunch with you is probably healthier than buying lunch-you get to control the quality and quantity *side look*.   

Do you take your lunch to work or school? Do you get questions about your food from colleagues? Wait, do you get a free buffet at work? Are you guys hiring? *Grin*
