I'm fine with people making polar switches but there's no need to write about it as though the thing they switched from is the "wrong" choice. Can't it just be wrong sometimes and/or for some people? Of course, "Sometimes Going Back - A Week of Sometimes Not Eating Lunch at My Desk " doesn't play as well as the original title..

I think eating at your desk is a wrong choice. There is almost no benefit to eating at your desk. The only potential upside is that you get "more" work done. Anyone who has the opportunity should leave their desk at least three times a week for lunch.

Right now I'm browsing HN while eating at my desk.

When I eat at my desk, it is because eating at my desk means eating in a relaxed quiet environment without lots of people around.

You're making a huge assumption that people eating at their desks are doing work while eating.
