According to a survey by Ocado, nearly half of office workers are making packed lunches more regularly than they were a year ago, a trend attributed to the rising cost of buying food on the go. The research found that this 'packed lunch revival' is increasingly driven by people choosing more nutritious 'lunch bowl' options.
