Honestly , who even thinks about something as petty and footer as feed food when you ’re so busy ingest over the man ? The only cheddar cheese you ’re interested in stacking descend in 10 and 20s . Besides , you ’re in all probability work late , logging billable hours by the truckload , the promise of partnership grow larger and large every minute . Just grab a Luna bar from the drawer if you ’re feel peckish – it pairs perfectly with that twelfth soy cappuccino . And if you really need a little something to get you through that last legal brief , address yourself to a scratch salad from the semi - decent French blot down the way . It wo n’t be up to your impeccable standard – too wilted and under - seasoned to say the least – but you could write off the shite out of it .
