So how much time do Americans spend eating per day? 80 minutes! Not nearly as much as we had anticipated.
Check This Interesting Tidbit Out…
The big surprise is that distracted eating—sitting down to a spreadsheet and a sad desk lunch, or eating a sandwich one-handed while driving—makes up so little of the overall total. In contrast to the 64 minutes that Americans spend only eating (or “primary eating,” as the USDA puts it), just 16 minutes a day are spent on secondary eating (i.e., eating and doing something else at the same time).
The most popular activities to do while eating were, unsurprisingly, watching television and movies or working.
We're relieved that people spend a relatively small amount of time eating while doing other things. After all, food tastes better if it's savored, and we'd hate to think of people eating most of their meals in a rush!
