Lunch these days is a grab, bite, swallow and it’s back to work kind of affair. The pace of things that move around these days doesn’t seem to allow for eating in peace. Food seems to be there just to keep one going.
The end result is one of eating food that help us in managing our time more efficiently. How odd it seems that eating has become more primitive despite the advances in our society. Even when we get a chance to eat at restaurants or places that offer good food, we find ourselves finishing everything in just half an hour or so and that seems to be quite long by our standards.
So what does that say about us? Are we really that short of time or are we just plain inefficient resulting in the need to find more time from other parts of our lives?
