Apple got the ball rolling when they began lavishing juice drinks on the team working on the original MAC copmputer. Today corporate campuses like Google provide upscale 'organic' meals for employees at no charge. 

TheIRS which cannot keep track of its own e mails has these employees in its sights. The IRS wants to tax the value of trhe meals as employee compensation. Some firms have provided this sort of perk for a nominal charge in the past. There is no way the government will ever be content with the money it has, it always wants more.

    From what I have heard, meals are one of the great perks of working for Google. Wouldn’t you know the government will find ways to interfere. I wonder if these meals are deducted from the corporate’s earnings as an expense of some type.

    I am certain GOOG is deducting the cost which is what is irritating the IRS
