The $50,000 Lunch
Posted by Andy on October 31, 2007
I’ve eaten my fair share of expensive meals over the years. In fact, I watched my daughter eat a $20 hot dog while we were at Disney World earlier this summer. However, on Friday, October 5, 2007, I ate the most expensive lunch of my life.
It started off as a normal Friday. I stopped off that morning to get a cup of coffee and went on about my work day. By the time lunch came, my time was quickly diminishing and I had to pick a place to eat, get my food, and get back to work. I went with the closest place that I knew wouldn’t take much of my time and headed back to work with a plate of chicken and broccoli. When I got back to my desk, I ate my food rather quickly and got back to work. However, it wasn’t very long before I started feeling terrible.
Well before my day was over, I decided to head home early and hope that I would start feeling better. After a little rest at home and something for the pain in my abdomen, I actually felt semi-normal and figured my ordeal was over. Man, was I mistaken…
