I think snacking when reading makes the book a bit more enjoyable, even though it's a particularly bad habit.

Not really. I don't like to eat while I read, but yeah, sometimes I would have tea while reading.

There are so many interesting books that I read and cannot even put them down even when am starving. I just have to do them both at the same time.

No, I find it hard to concentrate on reading while eating. Furthermore, I consider the fact that it is unhealthy to eat food without complete concentration on it. I mostly have drinks when reading.

I don’t generally snack while reading but I have to have something to drink. It can be tea, hot chocolate or even just water.

Eating while reading distracts me from the story. So, if I'm reading a book, I eat mostly fruits.

I prefer to eat fruits like grapes because my fingers don't get dirty and also the book I read. Usually, I don't eat anything, while I am reading.

I most definitely do and it has also put me in lot of trouble. Eating while reading leads me into mindless eating and that's not very healthy. Currently trying to break that habit.

I completely agree with you. The ideal is to have coffee while I read a book.

Yes, especially almonds or cashew nuts. But there were some times that I don't prefer eating while reading as it disturbs my comprehension phase.
