For "ze" unemployed....lunch can be a free thing. But you need to know where to go. I recommend using what I like to call the Starbucks/ Dean and Deluca/ d'Espana/ Whole foods/Gourmet Garage sample circut. I even have created an entire diet around samples, but it is for working people. Its called the Grand Central diet, and it is based around the samples that are found in the Grand Central Market Hall. I will cut and paste it here... Later on, when I dont have more pressing things to do like get ready to go out tonight. obvi.
At Starbucks you can get a venti hot water, this curbs hunger, or if you carry a tea bag around in your purse, you can transform it into tea. Voila!
At Dean and Deluca (Soho) you can get tiny slices of bread, generally different kinds. They are in baskets.
At D'Espana, its like a sample heaven, they have tiny cubes of cheese, and also different kinds of dips and even a dessert and some meat ( for carnivores). If you have read French Women Dont Get Fat ( and if you havent, it really should be in your reading list) you know that portion control is one of the keys to thinness. If you only eat these samples as your meals you will be thin in NO time at all!
Whole foods is okay with samples....sometimes there are beaucoup samples, sometimes RIEN! I generally try to nibble from the salad bar, but I always pray that the whole foods police wont catch me, and then I may have to go to the whole foods prison. Or worse yet be banned from whole foods for life. Sidenote: I wonder if being in whole foods prison would affect my "character and fitness" component of my bar application. Um remind me why I decided to work/not work in an "ethical" profession?!!?
So, in conclusion, yes PP, there IS such a thing as a free lunch.
