In the U.K. rest breaks are governed by the Working Time Regulations 1998.

Section 12 states that where a Worker's daily working time is more than 6 hours, he is entitled to a rest break, uninterrupted of not less than 20 minutes and away from their work station.

There is a common myth about 30 minutes after 4 hours but that is not in the legislation, section 12(4) mentions young worker's daily working time over four and a half hours, he is entitled to a rest break of at least 30 minutes.

None. However, if you worked 4 hours in Utah, you would get three 15 minute breaks (no break occurring within a half-hour of any other).

Is is illegal for your boss to keep you from eating over a certain period of time?

It depends on the type of job you have. Some service industry jobs like waitressing and convienance store work it is understood that you will take breaks when time permits. However, most jobs are required during an eight hour shift to provide you with a 15 minute break within 2 hours of starting your shift, at least a half hour lunch break within 4 hours of starting your shift, and another 15 minute break within 6 hours of starting your shift. Basically every 2 hours you are getting a break. Now if you are only working a 4 hour shift you are only entitled to one 15 minute break within 2 hours of starting your shift. I say within because it could be before the 2 hours or after the 2 hours by a few minutes based on coverage for your time away. Those are Federal Work Labor Laws that can be enforced by contacting the Department of Labor with proof that you are not getting you allowable breaks like you are supposed to get. Be careful because some employers that do not provide the breaks by law to their employees may also be doctoring time sheets because they can be fined from the Dept. of Labor if they were ever investigated or audited by them.
