Meltdowns during meal time, 9 week old puppy

Hi there, I have a nine week old golden retriever that I've had for a week and he's having meltdowns whenever I'm eating. Is this normal? I have started putting him in his cage when I eat because otherwise he is constantly barking/growling and jumping on me. While in the cage he whines loudly and does a tempertantrum, pawing at the cage, falling over (he's not very well coordinated yet), panting, etc. Is this a huge issue, or will he learn over time that I will not be sharing my meals with him?
