When we are "always on" we are constantly ingesting content ─ reading alerts and texts, liking, checking emails, downloading, uploading, upgrading, updating, deleting, submitting responses, and posting. If we do it while we are eating, our multi-tasking is overloading us. As our will attempts to digest the virtual content its forces are diverted from the physical content, our food. It's easy to eat a sandwich in a minute while talking on the phone. Some people are skilled at doing both at the same time. Others write a half-hearted, shorthand text while they hurriedly eat their sandwich at the same time. The result can be a misunderstood text with the need for further clarifying texts and the beginnings of nervous indigestion. Eat your sandwich. Taste it. Let it go down. Then text.
