> It would be a disincentive to get out of the office and away from my co-workers once a day, which is something that I think makes me happier and more productive.

If stepping away from your coworkers makes you happy and productive, your company has bigger problems than charging for meals.

I actually like my co-workers very much, but being an introverted type (as I suspect many developers are), I need a break from people once in a while. Even being with my best friends for ten hours straight would be a bit tiring for me.

You do realize that there is a difference here, right? I assume that you are an intelligent being that knows basic English grammar and hence you must have simply misread that comment.
