        Brown bag lunches are also the product of years without (or with tiny) raises. As real income drops, skipping restaurant is economy move.

        If you get 15 minutes for lunch, you're not going anywhere but the nearest microwave.

        High lunch prices preservatives in foods poor customer service. Add up to the people having a voice.

        And it's going to get worse. Less money for taxpayers means less money to spend eating out. Thanks Trump

        NYC isn't lunch-out friendly: bad traffic, $$$ Taxi, $20 lunch, crowded, 1-hr lunch break. It makes sense to save $400/mo by brown-bagging

        It's simple really. If restaurant lunches were half as expensive more people would eat out. But they're smart. They'll figure it out.

        Bad traffic probably isn't helping, either.

        Welllll most people can't afford spending $20 a day on lunches. Or maybe they can, but why not save money?
