Is it legal for an employer to allow only lunch after five hours and no other breaks at all?
Employers are required to provide break periods of at least 30 minutes for minors ages 14 through 17 who work five or more consecutive hours. Employers are not required to give breaks for employees 18 and over. If your employer allows breaks, and they last less than 20 minutes, you must be paid for the break. If your employer allows meal periods, the employer is not required to pay you for your meal period if you do not work during your meal period and it lasts more than 20 minutes. A collective bargaining agreement may also govern this issue.

Can you give a sample of a warning letter for the employee taking long breaks?
Are the rules for breaks spelled out or posted so that the parameters of breaks are clear to all employees? If not, that is step one. You can't blame an employee for abuse of rules if the rules are not clear for everyone. Before writing a warning letter, the employee should have been advised verbally that he/she was breaking rules or guidelines. Then a note should be made in the employee's file of the date that he/she was advised. Only then should a warning letter be written. The letter will include the rule or guidelines for breaks and the event that you spoke to the employee. The letter should also include the result of not following the rules or guidelines. Example: The rules for personal breaks are clearly stated (during training, in the employee handbook, on the employee bulletin board, or whatever is applicable). On (day, date) I spoke to you about following the rule (guideline) for breaks. This is to let you know that I find that you are still abusing your break time. If these rules (guidelines) are not followed, the result will be (state the consequences). Everyone involved in the operation of (name the business) will appreciate your cooperation. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to discuss this with me. Thank you.
Why does Taco Bell force it's employees to buy a 5.00 lunch or dinner every single time an employee works?
All employers are required by law to allow a meal break for any employee that works more than four consecutive hours. Employees are not, however, required by law to actually eat during their meal break, and I seriously doubt that your statement that Taco Bell forces employees to buy a meal is true at a corporate level. (It could be true at a specific location, but if so, it's probably grounds for a lawsuit.)
Are employers required to pay vacation time during a Family Medical Leave of absence?
It's up to the employer. The US Family and Medical Leave Act allows employers to require that employees use paid leave (i.e. vacation time, "personal days", sick days, etc.) first. You'd need to contact your employer's human resources department to find out what your company policy is.
