That is exactly what I expected to happen.

TBH I expected that everyone would lose the free food
That will happen a bit later
True. The badness is almost always incremental.
The last thing most tech workers need is more chips.

Yeah, free food looks like a negative to me.
Every day around lunchtime, hungry Amazon workers from adjacent floors would quietly try to slip in to get a sandwich or a kebab or whatever, or would surreptitiously attempt to get a bag of chips.
Eventually the Twitch side started to complain: there was never enough food to go around at lunch time. If you were more than ten minutes late, all the food would be gone.
The Amazon management’s response? Lock off the Twitch floor so it required special badges for access. Let the Amazonians starve!
