when you eat in front of the TV you don't pay as much attention to what you're eating, so you are more likely to overeat and to feel hungry after eating. When you eat at the table you focus more on the food in front of you so you notice the flavor and texture of food a lot more so you dont overindulge. if you want to lose weight, eat at the table without distractions, if you wanna kill two birds with one stone and you dont care about your weight, well you know what to do :)

There's not really a big difference, but where you eat can effect how much you eat and what you eat. If you eat at a dinner table without the television, you don't have distractions. You focus more on the food, so you feel more full.
When you eat in front of the television, you are more focused on what you are watching than what you are eating. It's easier to overeat.
Also, there tend to be a difference in food selection when you choose between eating at a table and eating in front of the television. When you eat at a table, the food is usually healthier. The so-called "TV dinners" are usually filled with things that are bad for you, like trans fat.

Because you should concentrate on the food you eat and think about how nourishing it's going to be for your body. You should take your time and chew each piece at least 30 times before you swallow. I think one eats too quick in front of the tv and doesn't think about what he's really supposed to be doing. We should learn to focus completely on one task and then follow it through to the end. When eating, one should...eat.

LOL I think what that means is you should eat at the table and ....not watch TV....because if your watching TV your less likely to pay attention to what you eat....So basically eat where ever you want...just don't watch TV while your eating....:)

if you're more aware of what you're eating, you don't eat as much. you have time to really taste your food and fill up faster.

its shows that you care if you socialize with your loved ones over dinner. if someone made you that food, it would be kind of rude if you just took your food and left them there by themselves
