Do you like to read while you eat?

I do. If I am out to a coffee shop or other restaurant I usually read the newspaper while I eat and drink my coffee. Or I will use the WiFi and go on facebook or mylot. At home when I eat my meals, I will find a blog or other website on the net and read the contents while I eat. To me it is a habit and a satisfying one at that. Does anyone else enjoy reading while you eat your meals?

I use my mobile, but I keep forgetting to bring napkins to wipe my hands with.

I love to read in cafes but if the book is good I forget about the coffee and it gets cold.

A friend of mine would read during lunchtime at school, and take notes. He never stopped reading because whenever there was something to read he was like that. He would play chess while in class, listening to the teacher and take in everything being taught but still able to multi-task, write, listen, play chess and read all at the same time. I can't do that. I find that if I eat in a quiet place I can better digest my food. LOL

The only place where I don't read is in a moving vehicle of any kind. I get motion sickness if I do.

When I sit down to eat, the meal doesn't seem complete unless I am reading something.

Never, I don't like to do anything when I am having my food. We raised with the habit of eating food, concentrating on the same. We also taught the food is a God and respect it while eating. (the secret behind this teaching is, we have to enjoy the food fully when we eat it and eating that way helps a lot with our health).

I often read while I eat. Sometimes I read books while I am eating and sometimes I read on my laptop.

At home I will sometimes read at mealtimes but usually only if I am alone. If I am with company even if it is only family members then I won't read but will engage in conversation instead.
