an article on bbc reports that womens' keyboards harboring "far more germs" than their male counterparts, and three to four times more germs on and around their desk. why? because of how much more food they keep around than men. the main researcher said: "I was really surprised how much food there was in a woman's desk."
"If there's ever a famine, that's the first place I'll look for food."
is anyone surpised by this

I think it's to do with hormones and cravings specifically effecting women.

I don't think that it is because women like food more than men. Historically man's role was to go out and hunt, while woman's role was to gather and store the food. Even with society being more accepting of the working woman and "house husbands", some of the traditional role of storing food is still passed on to women.

I just had a look and found some toast crumbs in my space bar. I held the keyboard up side down and shook it and all the keys fell off. I think I've put them back in the wrong position as my spellings improved. Sighhhhh time for a tuna sandwich i think.

It's just more common for women to work thru lunch, with a sandwich and drink at their desks...men prefer to skyve off to the pub and stay as long as possible.

HI
Yes at my age food is more interesting, I have had my fill of uninteresting men throughout my life I have found that food is easily disposed of when it goes bad unlike a man that just won't leave.

I lean toward the multitasking explanation. My husband and all the men I know like food plenty. lol

i respect prevalent American Steak homestead fare. you know, vast juicy burger (that squirts once you chew into it, a most suitable medium burger), vast salad, soup, baked potatoe or steak fries. i imagine that's exceedingly manly foodstuff. except possibly for the salad section. yet we gotta devour our vegetables with all this manly foodstuff!

No, women are famous multi-taskers . . . poor dears don't allow ourselves the luxury of stopping work to snack. Always more convenient to 'eat on the run'.

Most women stay in the kitchen cooking food.As they are with the food for a longer time they tend to like it.This is my opinion.
