I'd look at it as a case of at least they're reimbursing you for some meals at restaurants they partner with instead of not compensating you for any meals...
Sorry for sounding UnAmerican, I guess my sense of entitlement is lacking today.
I've never heard of a company requiring employees on travel to pay for their own meals without any reimbursement whatsoever. It wouldn't surprise me however after reading the associated thread over on Travelbuzz.
I could see encouraging employees to eat in certain restaurants under contract, but mandating that is a completely different thing.
