If one of your coworkers was eating canned meat/ no salt added veggies straight out of the can at work...

a) look down upon them for being a hobo/that's just ****ing weird;

b) applaud them for eating healthy, nutritious food and not being wasteful by having to use more plates or bowls or water.

argument with my wife here...

    Applaud them if the meat is tuna, kick them in the balls if it's chicken.

    Honestly, I would do both, I would be happy they are making better choices but I think it's weird/gross to eat meat (most anything)out of a can.

    Wouldn't bother me! I have been known to eat straight from the can at work but I tend to prefer cold food anyway.

    Possibly look a little freaked out at first, then ask if he eats like that in front of his girlfriend. But I'm sure my husband would say environmentally friendly... lol Hope this helps

    As long as it doesn't stink the place up, I don't have an opinion.

    Of course, that means no canned tuna. I would look down on them for that, and plug my nose :tongue:

    I honestly couldn't tell you if my co-workers even eat. I'm too busy trying to find out what all you people are eating..you know...in the real world of the interwebz.

    Canned Chicken...it's what's for dinner!

    MMMM....canned chicken.

    I eat like that at work everyday, though I do use a plate or bowl and then wash it.

    I tend not to care what my coworkers are eating.

    I only do when it is something extra stinky that makes the entire place smell.

    Personally, I'd put it in my bowl and heat it up, but to each their own.

    I don't care what my coworkers eat and thank them not to comment on my lunch.
    Which frequently includes canned chicken breast.

    I am leary of co-workers with canned goods...we had one lady who left here (no call/no show for a week)...when our boss went to clean out her desk he stumbled across a leaking can of tuna :sick: :sick: :sick:

    I work with 25 men and have a 30 minute lunch break. I really don't care what they eat. Our main goal is getting to the 7 microwaves first. lol

    As long as the smell doesn't offend I tend not to judge my coworkers' lunches.
