  You can make food at home as a part of your lunch break. If you make food and bring it in, you need to spend extra non paid time to do that.

    That’s fair to say for lunch. Not for breakfast though, unless one makes the argument there should also be a breakfast break.

    Regardless, with the existing status quo it’s not a good financial decision to eat out for breakfast and lunch everyday.

      The status quo shouldn’t mean that you are forced to spend time outside of work time preparing for work time. Unless they want to pay for that time, or your lunch.

  Because I don’t have a commute at home so there’s time to make breakfast and lunch.

  Work pays well enough for meals, then it’s a non-issue.
