The IRS allows for the deduction of meals and entertainment as a business expense under certain conditions. If you are a business owner or self-employed and the meal is a necessary and ordinary expense for your business, it may be deductible. For instance, if you are ordering Uber Eats for a business meeting with a client or for employees working overtime, it could be considered a deductible business expense. However, if you're an employee ordering Uber Eats for a regular meal during your workday, this is not deductible. It's important to keep detailed records of the business purpose of the meal to substantiate the deduction if questioned by the IRS.
