Tired of that salad and sandwich from the corner deli? No offense to PB&J fans, but your favorite sandwich isn’t considered ethnic enough.
It was National Take Your Ethnic Food To Work Day.
Meals included stinky tofu, globs of kimchi, stacks of whole fish and, of course, the ubiquitous fish sauce that pairs perfectly with everything from chicken and salad to oatmeal.
One of the sponsors of the day is The National Food To Work Foundation, which was founded in 1998 by the American Fish Sauce Cooperative, the Korean Kimchi Cultural Foundation of America, and the Norwegian Council of Lutefisk Manufacturers with the mission to encourage intercultural exchange and communication.
People were encouraged to share their photos, recipes and stories with the hashtag #foodtowork and post their photos on the Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/foodtowork
Forgot to take a pic but here's the empty box. Leftover Thai red curry w/catfish & eggplant. Box still smells good. #foodtowork pic.twitter.com/y3qzk6SDXn
