The section seems to limit it to "meals during travel" only.

Are these 50% meals or 100% meals? You'll get to choose the correct category as you continue in that interview
The way TurboTax states "while traveling" confuses a lot of people, because it's only later in that interview that it shows other examples.
In any case, go ahead and click on Meals, even though it says "meals while traveling", and you'll still get to the right place. It's just using "traveling" as an example. You'll see more examples later on as you continue through the Meals interview.
So after you click on Meals to start that interview, then on the next screen it shows the 50% and 100% categories. Choose which of those is appropriate for your situation. Again it only shows 1 example for each, but you'll see more examples later.
If it's 50% meals, for example, then even though it still says "while traveling", go ahead and click it and read on.
The next screen lists several examples of 50% meals which includes things other than while traveling, and there is a blue link for "more examples." Read the examples, and you'll see that it's not only for "traveling."
Also read all the popup blue Help links in that section.
