That’s kind of depressing compared to Ireland (specifically Dublin). Things are just so expensive here.

Consider that all these lunches are subsidised by the company, which if you think about it could have either completely subsidize or pay workers more and make lunches full price. This lunch format easily costs 8€ or more full price.

Side note: I actually do like for companies to subsidize lunch since it's usually money that is exempt of taxes up to a point (depending on the region) so the workers save money by doing so.

I do like it as well when companies subsidize lunch, but one downside is that in practice, people with certain allergies can't enjoy those schemes some/most/all of the time. While seeing their coworkers enjoying cheap food.
