Gambit Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 Are you the old style "family that eats together stays together" types where all members of the family have to sit down at the table and eat together? Or do you prefer to eat in front of the television and just use your lap/coffee table? Or do you prefer to eat in front of the computer while watching a movie? Given the option right now, I'd go for the first one. But usually, it's the second/third one.
FakeId Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 if i lived with my family . id eat wiht them if i had a tv , id eat in front of the tv so i eat in front of my comp or with the roomate :regular_smile:
dial_100 Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 That is very interesting Rajiv. I need a company while eating. But mostly I need wifee around while I am eating dinner. But at times I eat in front of TV watching something. But with kids I have to be on the table or else expect lot of trouble. Sometimes I go sit next to the pool and eat dinner with the cool pleasant sound of waterfall with dim lights in the pool.
King Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 I'm for all the options depending on how the day is spanning. Lunch invariably with the desktop and the laptop. Morning tea and evening tea is pretty much in the dining. Dinner depends really, mostly with the family and on odd occasion while on the laptop. If there's cricket on, the food's in the lounge of course.

My ex-wife and I used to watch TV and eat dinner :haha: It's just habbit since childgood, actually I am so stubborn that I would find the right channel first to watch..at times the food gets cold ( weird eh! )
dial_100 Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 yes it is...but it is matter of habit. I have always found excuse for not eating my dinner if someone is not around. Wifee tried many times but she got it that it is one of those things... (kutte ki dum) cant help it.
Zooter Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Are you the old style "family that eats together stays together" types where all members of the family have to sit down at the table and eat together?

Given the option right now, I'd go for the first one. But usually, it's the second/third one. Good Q Gambo. If I lived with my family, may #1 like once a week (or every two weeks :giggle:) But I don't so, in front of my computer watching some T.V. show I downloaded. Even when I'm at home, it's usually standing up with my dish on my bookcase with my face 5 inches away from the T.V. which is right next to my bookcases.
Rajiv Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 ..continuing with the question Do you have a fixed side dish you like to eat with your meal? I have yoghurt with every meal I have a glass of juice after lunch These days it's lassi When I was a kid, I would only eat plain food, like for eg., if it was dal..it had to strained. I always wanted a "thumbs up" (the drink )
Cricketics Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 i really would love eating food while sitting along with family members.. but heck, i dont have that oppurtunity @T.M.. its been 5 years and i am still continuing to eat food while sitting in front of pc or t.v....with a glass of may be heinekin or perhapz A tropicana orange..
Ram Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Its been two months since i switched on the T.V. I got so hooked at a point that i decided to completely give it up. Generally , Breakfast is always got-to-finish-in-5-mins thingy. Lunch is a rarity. Dinner is with roomies. If no one is at home , then its with lappie , with some nice song or news bulletin on.
Zap_Brannigan Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Me too.....unless i am eating out or have company over, i always have dinner with the TV on or with something on the laptop. Even when i go to bed, i leave the TV on with the sleep timer. Now that i think about it, the TV is turned off only when i am at work.
beetle Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Would like to eat my meals in front of the tv (with hubby by my side of course) but hardly ever get to do that.I have tried but I have been lifted up with dinner plate in my hands and dumped at the dining table .:P When I am alone I sit in front of the computer and eat....
theguyinallblue Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 can not eat food without TV..when i am home... or i read newspaper while eating.... BUT i can never just eat...unless there are guests or i am a guest somewhere..:haha:
Holysmoke Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 I dont care as long as the food is good :tounge_smile:
apocalypse Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 Breakfast is just a 2-3 min thing. Lunch with co-workers at some place outside. Dinner is different thing. I have a close circle of 7 frndz and we eat together. Sometimes someone cooks sometimes some other
yoda Posted July 5, 2007 Posted July 5, 2007 no major eating in front of the computer, unless it is some light snack with coffee. trying to avoid eating in front of the tv as much as possible. have gotten better. dinner is typically with the family, lunch at my desk or eat out with colleagues, breakfast alone as we all have our own morning schedule.
Gambit Posted July 5, 2007 Author Posted July 5, 2007 When I was young, I had to have my lunch/dinner whilst reading Tinkle or Tintin. :bird:
