So if I get hungry around noon and I'm around campus I'm supposed to drive across town to my home because I can make a sandwich cheaper there?

I can't bring myself to do it. Health aside (I don't care about healthy food, so leaving it out of my post), I can't bring myself to spend money on a lunchmeat sandwich when I can spend that same amount on some pizza or a burger or a poboy... or even a different type of sandwich than lunchmeat.

Just a personal preference.

Could be because growing up, I had no idea people ate anything other than sandwiches for lunch. For some reason, my parents (especially my dad) think lunchtime = sandwich, so I ate a regular sandwich every day for YEARS. Now I have to be in a rare sandwich mood to eat the lunchmeat type.
