I normally don't eat at the computer, but I always have a glass of water here with me...just in case I get thirsty. Food stays in the kitchen/dining areas...and I especially don't allow food in my room anymore. I learned my lesson after inviting a tribe of ants to my room years ago. Well...I didn't invite them, but my eating in the bedroom did. Never again. The most I'll ever eat upstairs is a cracker or a piece of cheese.
