I'm not sure exactly what you are trying to say. Perhaps one of these is what you want. (I wasn't hungry at 3:00 because) I had been taken to lunch by my boss.

This would be okay in a certain context, for example:

I was thrown into solitary confinement, where you're supposed to get only one meal a day, breakfast. But one day I was caught eating a second meal, at lunchtime. I had been taken the lunch by the warden's wife, who felt sorry for me.
