I was too tired this morning when I woke up to prepare myself a lunch so I just grabbed a bag of microwave popcorn on my way out the door so that is my lunch for today. It will fill me up until I get home
What are you having for lunch today? Something better then popcorn?

Those bags of microwave popcorn come in handy. I haven't thought about lunch yet but since I'm home I'll probably have a tuna sandwich.

Tuna sandwiches can be very good. Since today is Friday, a lot of Catholics will probably have them for lunch.

@Aquitaine24 tuna on Fridays during lent is probably common. I have some tuna leftover from yesterday so I'll probably have another sandwich today.

@Marilynda1225 yes, fish is popular. I believe McDonalds once had a Hula Burger, with a slice of pineapple instead of meat.

@LadyDuck You don’t hear much about fresh sardines. I do like the Latvian smoked sardines in a jar. Riga Gold.

@Aquitaine24 I also like a lot smoked salmon and trout, not sardines. I like fresh sardines grilled.

@Fleura well, yes. You just put it in the microwave and watch it pop. You can’t “ruin” it in the same way you could mess up eggs or fish.

@Aquitaine24 Do you mean microwave popcorn is easy to cook? Or popcorn is easy to cook? What's the difference anyway?

Popcorn was the late afternoon snack. Lunch was soup and cornbread, the cold wind blew my inspiration away.

@Aquitaine24 Yep, I got a recipe for Mchadi as soon as we got here. Mine is not shaped so nice, I've seen some that are absolutely perfectly oval.

Not much better. I have a small container from the freezer of strawberries. Also a near empty container of cottage cheese. I will top it off with a bag of almonds, I think. Happy Friday.

Does everyone else around you like it? I guess it could be annoying if they did.

@Happy2BeMe I've never thought to compare it to anything else. I'll take more notice next time I'm in a cinema to see if I agree.

Popcorn is better than staying hungry. I did have chapati with soy meat for lunch.

I've had popcorn as a snack. Tried it as a meal and wasn't satisfied. Had to seek out a protein.

I like popcorn in an air popper because it is less salty.
