Why can't you eat it now? Or are you trying to have discipline or something?

No. We have scheduled breaks at my office, and there's no eating at our desks. So I get to eat and/or drink coffee from 10:00 to 10:15, and then lunch from 12:15 to 1:00, and then another break from 2:45 to 3:00. I'm surprised they don't make us punch the clock when we arrive and leave. Stupid Dickensian workhouse of an office...
