I don't eat while eating but I watch TV cause most of the time it's hard to just sit and eat. Most of the time we include eating as downtime and like to include activities that we get the same relief from doing.

I agree with some of the other answers, we are bored and it's relaxing... I like to read the nutrition info on the item I am eating at that time. I don't really think it is a good Idea though I think we should be concentrating on what we are eating (it's more satisfying). Instead of eating mindlessly... I seem to forget that I ate anything (Because I am usually on-line with a plate or bowl in front of me)

I don't read while I'm eating although I do watch a lot of TV. But I do eat while I'm reading particularly at night with a good book.

Ppl should try not to distract themselves and try and keep busy while eating. You're already doing something - eating! Focus on that. Think about every bite and the way it taste. That way, you won't overeat because you'll be paying attention to how much you're eating and feel when your stomach says that you're full. Most times, ppl are doing something else like reading or surfing the net or watching tv and they dont realize how much food they've taken in and/or didn't appreciate it.

this is the u.s. and because it's the us, we love food. now... if you're the kind of person like me who loves to read, then you should know that reading and eating at the same time can give a certain calmness to one's self (not to get emotional and stuff). suffice to say, two pleasures at the same time can be very fulfilling. even if it is as simple as reading and eating.

Need of the time.
Reading while eating isn`t an desirable act for any matter.

Maybe because reading is relaxing and it's better to be relaxed when eating food for the digestive system to work better. Just an educated guess btw.

It is comforting but not smart. Once you are done eating, you will not feel full because you were unable to enjoy the meal. Sometimes, people who eat while reading, overeat.

I don't know..but personally, i don't like being bored while I eat, so I always read the paper.
