Doesn't matter to me, but yes the Captain does have that authority.
Safety of flight. Captain is not an all powerful dictator. I would not take kindly to someone telling me where and when I can eat. I'm not 2 anymore. (Except if you ask my wife.) The seats are in the bunk room are there precisely so you do have a place to eat. I eat snacks in there all the time. It should matter to you. A 15 hour flight, easy call, safety of flight--unless you don't want to eat airline food and are on the food poisoning diet plan. File an FSAP, call pro standards.
The whole idea is dumb, akin to wearing tin foil on your head.
