30 is common, but I wouldn’t say standard. An hour a day feels standard.
In office work, you usually get it all in one chunk, whereas if you work physically demanding or shift-based work, you get 15 minutes coffee break, then at lunch 30 minutes, then another 15 minutes later. This is true at least for all the western European countries.
Yeah well we can’t all be French. I’m not saying it’s a good thing, but 30 minutes is standard even in Europe.
They’re talking like “bring food from home” is not an option. Do French people not have home kitchens and Tupperware?
The French would never do that. They take an hour and a half for lunch and go to a restaurant that serves wine and a choice of cheeses.

In my decades of work in the UK (from nightshift shelf stacker to software architect) I’ve never not had one hour.
