From stale coffee to vending machines, donut boxes to ramen noodle cups, the vibe in most office-place lunch rooms is less than aspirational.

We’re taking on your office kitchen woes with this list of tools and foods that will totally transform your eating habits in the office. Every snack listed is officially Chalkboard approved – it’s likely someone on our team is eating something from this list as you read this. Here are healthy ideas for the office kitchen that keep our own team happy, healthy and out of the donut box…
