Eating while Standing up

[Rikachu]

Is that weird?

People think i'm strange. Is it beneficial to your health in some way?

[l4nd0fc0nfu510n]

Only way I could see that being beneficial is that you might burn a calorie.

[Kewp]

so at the dinner table while everyone is sitting down you stand up to eat?

Keeps people from grabbing your lunch, if you got a hold of it.

[ddrkreature]

I do that all the time at work because I'm the only one there and I don't get a legitimate break

[Tis a Mystery]

Only thing I can think of is that it's easier for digestion

At school I stand up when I eat. And my family eats wherever the hell we want to eat.

I sometimes walk and eat if i need to be somewhere or if i just feel like going for a stroll around uni.

[thoreau]

Slightly weird. It seems like you're not calmed down and not fully enjoying your meal.

[Zefar]

Ever ate an hot dog while sitting while buying it from a stand?

Normally I don't find this weird at all.

It's good to take a walk after eating. It helps you digest your food apparently.

You need to work out!
I eat walking or standing up 2-4 times a week during work. Never do it at home tho. Just dont see the point to walk circles around the coach and eat.

I was always told this was bad for you, not sure how true that is though.

If you go for a walk after you eat, you get cramps brah! No matter how fit!

I eat with my butt and poop from my mouth.

I was told it's much healthier.

Bull♥♥♥♥. I don't even get cramps if I go swimming right after I finish eating. The more I grow an as an adult, the more I find the ♥♥♥♥ my parents told me when I was a growing up are LIES! Santa Clause, sitting too close to the TV, making a face that would stick that way, pouting resulting in a chicken ♥♥♥♥ting on your lip, etc. ALL LIES!

I dont :confused:

I depends from person to person. My friend can't drink water while he works out or else he gets cramps.

I used to do this at school, but only because I didn't feel comfortable sitting in the crowded noise hall known as the cafeteria. I was actually kind of pathetic then (maybe I never stopped...? O_o) because I would stand way out of the way near the outer edge of the allowed lunch area, near the classroom hallways. Yeah, it pretty much could be a definition of socially awkward/uncomfortable. :(

I would take standing and eating as a sign of either being uncomfortable or impatient about something, though it depends on the food and context, too. Standing with a sandwich at a party wouldn't be odd at all, but having a full dinner-type plate and eating it standing up would be interesting in the fascinating, "what the heck is he doing" sort of way.

I just had the oddest image of someone eating a steak while walking down the street. Think the TF2 Heavy and his new sandwich. :P

[spacebug]

My Mum reckons it's unhealthy to eat while standing up. I don't think it can really make much difference myself.

[Mr.9]

It depends like if I'm eating a Hotdog or Nachos or a Pizza

First, it occurs when swimming or taking a bath in general.
Second, IT'S AN URBAN LEGEND! You don't get cramps when swimming directly after eating.

[Ihavenoidea]

Ill one up you; I can eat and drink while walking.
