You seem to have a whole lot of replies, which is inspiring because no one in my office cooks, but I'll add in my experience: 1. I enjoy the act of cooking. 2. I go to the grocery store every 3 or 4 days and plan my meals accordingly. I have a general idea of what I would like to eat the next few days but pick up whatever is available and seems good. 3. Every breakfast is oatmeal, banana, almonds and milk. Most lunches are whole grain break, turkey/chicken/etc, vegetables. My dinners are wide ranging but a lot of Mexican food, from the coast and yucatan, chili, steaks, some whole grain pastas. 4. No, though I try to avoid any processed food and really like lean meats, fish, and whole grains. 5. Slow cooker
