LOL I am cracking up

over this, as most of the time I agree completely with this! And I am really only sharing this because I was kind of wanting to anyway... certainly don't want to imply it isn't best to bring our own food, as I too DO it!
But this is meant as more of an NSV. Today Chipotles opened up a new restaurant near our office and invited a lot of the businesses to have all their employees come down for a free lunch. I was NOT going to go... then I saw what some had and that there were salads so went down there.
I was so proud of myself. I got the wrap and ONLY the healthful ingredients on it... chicken, green peppers, onions, tomato/onion salsa, a tiny bit of rice and a tiny bit of mozarella cheese. AND then I took it to the office, cut it in half and ate half, so have half for tomorrow... LOL PLUS the lunch I had taken for today which may end getting trashed. I was just amazed at myself as before I would have loaded that thing full of cheese, sour cream, etc. and pigged down the whole thing without a second thought.

And know what... ? Half was PLENTY for lunch!
BUT I again want to emphasize that I DO agree with you... it is far BEST to always bring our own food to this kind of thing. Your comment just made me chuckle and decide to share this.

But I agree... it is NOT free if it is harmful to you... better to let unhealthful food go to waste than to WAIST.
