I'm sorry but...
...eating at your desk at work is fucking disgusting.
Especially when your work colleagues are eating horribly smelly food and have to sit through them burping and gobbling their slop noisily at high speed like some fucking pig at a trough.
And you can't escape because you work next to them...
Sad thing is the employer subtly discourages you from going out to lunch, but if I was a boss it would be mandatory, I don't want to work in an unhygienic environment with half-eaten food and smelly distracting dishes. The closest I get to that is a croissant in the morning - maybe a few crumbs but not smelly or distracting, but I'd prefer to have a nice leisurely breakfast on my own, but then I'd roll in about 11am :-D Breakfast can be a tradeoff, but everyone should get a break and lunch outside.
In fact I have a real problem eating in public; I don't like it; especially on tubes or trains, I feel really embarassed and only do it when literally it's the absolutely only way. Even then I feel bad if there is a lot of people around and really self concious.
Just saying like.

I have to say, I eat at my desk regularly. This is mainly due to the fact that is the easier time for me to look on the net and there isn't a lot to do around where I work. I will go out more often if I can but I have been known for eating smelly food. It used to bother me at first cause I sit next to the microwave near enough but I have gotten used to it.
Mind, if you are freaked by people eating generally, eating at work is going to be a problem for you. I have to say, I never really notice.

Hence why I wear headphones...I wish there was smellphones too.
