EATING LUNCH MAY BECOME HARDER (AND MORE COSTLY) IN S.F.

by Bob Walsh

It seems that the local restaurant owners association is pissed that many of the tech firms in the greater San Francisco area have a cafeteria-commissary on site for their employees. These often provide very low cost or even free meals to the help as part of their compensation.

At the behest of the restaurant association the city and county of San Francisco is moving to make these on-site cafeterias illegal in order to FORCE employees to move into the local area during their lunch breaks and buy food locally (or else brown-bag it).

It is unclear how much traction the proposal will get as many of these firms provide a lot of healthy food, like salads and fruit and low-fat snacks, as opposed to pizza and greaseburgers.
