I... I don't understand. What's this mentality of offering free non-nutritious food for all employees, by the bucketload, for free? Why would you snack in the first place?

Either eat solid, whole meals on assigned lunch breaks, or drink something that isn't bad for you - tea, coffee come to mind - or why not, water?

In all frankness I find the whole concept of offering free crap for everyone harmful and eventually counterproductive - I can only imagine what copious amounts of free sugary soft drinks will do to people after a while.

It is not free. Nothing is free. In fact, when I was negotiating an offer, the free food for breakfast and lunch was brought up several times. Yes, this is true even at Google. See http://rachelbythebay.com/w/2012/01/21/notfree/
