 You should take a break midway through the day to rest your brain, not to mention the hygiene issues of eating in a place that's not designated for it.  Our MIS guy says more keyboards get ruined from food residue than you'd imagine.
 
 Plus who wants to hear/smell the person next to them eating?  Gross.
 
 If you want to leave early, come in early.

Most people in the office work through lunch (or surf da intarweb), but everything I've read about productivity (ESPECIALLY for women), the word is to leave the office during your lunch break--even if it's just to walk around the block.
