Sometimes i am having my lunch with my coworkers

The rest of the week , i bring cold pasta or sandwiches
from home . Emart's bakery has green tea bread or just
brown bread . I stuff this with salad , cheese /mozarella,
tomato , smoked salmon or olive tuna .
I don't eat meat . I also bring yogurt or fruit salad , really yum

I just had some steak and frozen veggies with an apple.

This week I've had:
Thai Red Chicken Curry on a bed of thai noodles.
BLT salad and a fat-free yogurt for dessert.
Trail mix bar and raisans.

I do have the luxury of a microwave so I just stick whatever I want to eat in a lunchbox and take it to school.

Thanking heaven that a Subway sandwich shop opened near my school. I dig Korean grub, but I get sick of rice and soup-based meals everyday. Nothing dynamic about it at all.

I like eating in the school cafeteria. The best thing about the food is all of the vegetables. I don't thing I'd be eating nearly as many vegetables if I had to wash, cut, and cook them myself.

I've been eating at our 'professor's cafeteria' regularily (5-7 meals a week) since last session. It's typical Korean food (rice, soup, usually fish, and different side dishes every day). It's hit or miss, but I don't mind. It's fairly cheap (3,000 won), though I can see others in this thread can eat for less. More than anything, it's convenient (2 floors above my office). I used to eat at the nearby resaurants, but I found I wasn't eating very healthy. I try not to eat too much rice, and load up on the veggie side dishes. That way I still leave the table full, but I haven't eaten too much carb-rich rice.

If you're not supposed to drink the tap water, how is eating veggies washed in it okay (e.g. salads, Subway, etc.)?
