Actually they don't have free lunch, which is quite strange for Silicon Valley companies

They (We) does have mandatory enforced veganism, however.

Actually it's pescatarianism, for whatever reason seafood doesn't count as meat.
Maybe it's because fish don't scream when you stab them, but idk.

Yeah, that's just horrible. We're emptying the oceans at an alarming rate. If they want to do it right, they shouldn't allow fish either.
Fish can't scream.

The Bloomberg article preview describes enforced vegetarianism, not veganism.
They are an NYC (does anyone still call it Silicon Alley?) company.

Mostly we're trying to get SF to rebrand as New New York.
Old Silicon Valley (companies primarily engaged in the design and production of silicon) doesn't do free lunch.

Neither does Apple.
We all know there is no such thing as a free lunch.
(In seriousness, it is neither a Silicon Valley company nor a tech company. All it has in common is that it is using VC funding and SV-style brand marketing to grow to spectacular proportions relative to its underlying revenues)
