I bring those choices from work everyday. I think they should offer healthy choices to who ever wants to eat right.

Definitely! Of course, sometimes I’d eat the bad stuff, too- but there are definitely times when I want a healthier option and it just isn’t there!

My office sells fruit cups, apples, and so on in the vending machines. It’s in a separate vending machine that looks like a rotating see-trough refrigerator (kind of like a coffee shop refrigerator, just with a slot for coins and money). When you insert money, the trays turn, and you open the door to grab your choice. They also have refrigerated sandwiches, instant noodles and hot pockets in that machine. I don’t normally buy anything from vending machines because it’s much more expensive than buying it from a grocery store and bringing it to work.
When I do have to buy something, I do buy the healthy stuff most of the time.

I usually buy V8 instead of coke, now that it is available. But I still eat too many pretzels….curse of Philadelphia.
I will sometimes take fruit over donuts for breakfast. And salad over fries at lunch.
But I’m getting old, metabolisism is slowing. I’d have to get a new wardrobe if I wasn’t careful about this sort of thing…

These are the kind of snacks that I bring to work now but if I didnt have them at home, I would probably buy them. However, I cant see any of the men in the office buying cut up veggies istead of a bag of Corn Curls with a Pepsi.
