While Mr Bragg appeared to be unaware the act was caught on camera, the moment did catch the attention of Deputy Labor leader Richard Marles.
‘As usual, the Liberals are eating their own…’ Mr Marles wrote.
Some Twitter users labelled the footage ‘disgusting’ while others were quick to poke fun at the Senator.
‘Be fair, there’s hardly time to go out and have lunch. Gotta provide your own snacks,’ wrote one person.
‘Looking for Scotty…sorry, I mean Snotty,’ commented another.
‘That’s lunch, everyone!’ added a third.
