Whatever is available and convenient to eat... 95% of the time, I drive home for lunch. I live a whopping 2.3 miles from the office.

I eat at subway at least twice a week. its really starting to get old but I don't have much selection.

its either subway, mcdonald's, a chinese place, 2 italian restaurants, or a slow sit down restaurant

i can't eat chinese more than once a week, at least not from this place, and sometimes i don't feel like eating chinese for a long time.

I eat leftovers 95% of the time. My wife and I, after struggling for a long time with cooking, have started cooking decent meals every night Sun-Thurs, with enough leftovers for both of us for lunch the next day. If our dinner sucks, so does the lunch, but it eliminates a lot of hassles.

Today is a spicy chicken stirfry with cashews :)

Heh, usually fast food crap or stuff from places close by like sandwichs or stuff from Save-on-Foods.

Or when i'm not lazy, i bring my own sandwichs.

Today it's multigrain bread + butter + cheese + ham + tomatoes = mmm :)

Sandwiches... i vary them so sometimes i have PB&J, others its lunch meat and cheese, and also tuna.
If there are left overs from dinner, have those for lunch the next day, or take soup in a thermos with a salad.
There are a lot of things to have... you just need to get creative!

I go home for lunch most days, so that's usually leftovers or a sandwich or whatever is in the house. When I go out, there's a bunch of options within a mile of my office. Panera Bread, Qdoba, Subway, Burger King, Taco Bell, Wendy's, Chick-Fil-A, Bojangles, and a great Thai restaurant, among others. The only ones I frequent are the Thai place and Panera Bread. I get Thai food at least once a week. It's good food, usually only takes 5 minutes to get takeout, and isn't too expensive (around $8 for lunch)
