Abstract
One in three of the UK’s workforce sit down to exactly the same lunch every day, according to a new study from Deliveroo.
The poll of 1,500 workers revealed that 70% of workers admitted to being stuck in a 'lunch rut' with ham sandwiches emerging as the most likely midday repeat meal, following by cheese and then tuna sandwiches.
According to the study, the average Briton has a repertoire of three lunches on rotate with 40% admitting to being jealous of colleagues who have ‘interesting and varied’ lunches.
Dan Warne, managing director of Deliveroo, said: “This research highlights how many of the British workforce eat really boring, unimaginative meals for lunch on repeat.
Other survey findings included that 25% of all employees eat lunch at their desks and, on average, the typical worker takes 17 minutes to finish their lunch.
