I'm going to go try your suggestion Hopes, T&T is next door so there extra incentive.

Havn't gone to muffin break, do you get them to heat your muffin?

lol kazzam I feel much the same way, a lot of foods like sushi I don't really care for much. Not being able to have it I really want it.

I worried whether babies could get addicted to McDs in the womb, as the 1st tri the only thing I wanted was bbq bacon cheeseburgers and mcmuffins.

We'll I decided to try a different supermarket, went to Countdown instead of Pak n Save, and couldn't get over the variety of ready meals that don't require freezer/refrigeration and can be heated in the microwave. I've got teriyaki chicken and rice, and kings minestrone soup to try over the next couple of days.

I also discovered philidelphia cream cheese in individual tubs, enough for a bagel, and amazingly enough you get 4 tubs of cheese and 4 bagels in a bag.

Feel so much better being able to avoid McDs for the next week.

I do too, and for a pregnant woman there is absolutely no choice. Can't have indian, chinese, kebabs or sushi as they're either cold or sitting out for ages. Which only leaves McDs which isn't that nice.
I sometimes go for fish n chips, not v-healthy but at least safe. I have been having hot subway subs making sure they're toasted so they're safe, also getting them from somewhere with high turn over means the salads are fresh.

The chinese place does freshly made soups to order, wondered how fresh everything was though, as you can't see where its being stored.

I'd like this too.. Especially when I'm out shopping etc and every food court outlet is off the menu apart from McD's and I don't need anymore fast food.

I have thought about ordering one of the chinese soups/meals that are made to order, has anyone tried those, are they really fresh or are the ingredients left sitting around?

Bizarre - I steamed a whole head of broccolli the other day and had it for afternoon tea!!!!

First time around I used to have a lot of stuffed baked spuds....and toasties!

Mmmmm tortilla wraps with fresh salads, chilli beans, cheese and sour cream are a treat for me...yum

But for everyday lunch I normally do vego sandwiches or pasta or similar....whatever I eat, Clodagh eats. Occasionally I'll get a vegetarian pie from the organics store and keep it in the freezer for those preggy moments lol
