Claim work related expenses (Lunch)

I am a full time employee and spend about 7-8 hours a day doing collections in my work van, I start and finish everyday at the office/warehouse. However I have no access to facilities while on the road and most of the time take a packed lunch, however if I was to buy lunch and a hot drink is this claimable for tax relief as a expense?
I know lorry drivers can claim and others who move about for their job.
Anybody have experience of this?
Could be another one of them little tax reliefs most people are unaware of.
