In business, when a competitor is interested in your product and service, but goes to another company, they are "eating your lunch." This happens often when a company strategy or branding is weak — the prospect is interested in what you sell, perhaps because of your marketing...hits your website... but they are not engaged. Their reaction is lukewarm, or "I don't get it." They don't know why they should pursue their interest in your product or service. So they go elsewhere. And your competition eats your lunch. (What's for dinner?!)
If you don't engage your prospects and prospects on your website, your competitors will eat your lunch.

Many don't believe me, but in March of 1967 a buddy and I were sitting in a local bar. Something was said about lunch, I responded by saying, "I'll eat your lunch". All laughed and went on. The group that was there started using that line. Next thing I know everyone is using it. Believe it or not.

Used when faced with a difficult challenge. Came from the common instance when a school yard bully would take lunch money from a smaller kid and use it to by his own lunch.
I have to write a 50 page report on the state of our global environment this weekend. It's gonna eat my lunch!
