Christ, I hate it when articles blithely ignore history.
Trilogy, a company I worked for the summer of 2000, had fully stocked, 24-hour kitchens all over the campus, with hot breakfast and other meals as well as whenever sandwiches, cereal, etc. They have had them since the company had twenty people in 1990, IIRC. They spent about $5.50 per person per day the year I was there.
Obviously Google took it farther, but they are _not_ the first to fully subsidize three meals a day for every employee.

No credit to the worthy.
