It feels very different when you have to pay for your own snacks. I definitely substantially moderated my consumption during remote work (and it's not like the amount they were spending on snacks gets paid to you either). It definitely improved my eating habits but I also miss free Diet Coke and protein shakes.

If I was getting paid the snack amount in cash then I'd probably be ok but as is free breakfast+lunch+snacks saves me on the order of $500/mo. And as someone who is pretty mediocre at cooking the quality of food is better as well.
