My wife is the type of person who is so focused on the story she’s reading that she’d completely forget about eating or drinking anything for hours, even if she prepared something beforehand. Meanwhile, I just can’t really relax if I’m not snacking something, sweet or salty, while reading.
(On a side note: our roles completely reverse when playing video games. I could spend the whole day just playing and not eat or drink a thing)
No, sorry, I have a strict rule against eating and reading together. Main reason is to avoid stains in my (manga, comic, other) books, I really hate stains in books :P
