Hilton rolled out the Gold and Diamond member Food and Beverage credit first as a temporary exercise for 2021 due to the global pandemic and extended it for another year through the end of 2022 (likely permanent at this point).
Hilton has now clarified a situation where the F&B credit is not available for eligible members in the United States.
You can access Hilton’s page for F&B credit here.

Update:
..complimentary continental breakfast (All Inclusive hotels, hotels with Executive Lounges, and non-U.S. only), Daily Food & Beverage Credit (U.S. only , when guest does not have access to Executive Lounge)..
It would be quite a surprise if breakfast were not included at ALL INCLUSIVE HOTELS.
Hilton, however, now clarifies that the daily F&B credit is not applicable if the member has access to the Executive Club.
It makes you wonder, how many of those are left at Hilton-affiliated hotels in the US?

Conclusion
Hilton’s move to daily F&B credit that usually covers perhaps a coffee and a muffin has not been welcomed by MOST Gold and Diamond members that stay at Hilton-affiliated hotels in the United States.
I hope that this won’t expand to other markets, as it is likely to stay.
