32 Percent Of People Tweet While They Eat [REPORT]

If you’re someone who’s aware of social norms enough to put down the smartphone while you eat, you’re quickly becoming the minority. More and more often, people are tweeting from the table, according to a new study.

The Hartman Group surveyed 1,641 adult U.S. consumers ages 18-64, between December 5th and 11th. And plenty of those adults are too worried about missing a single tweet to take a break while they eat.

29 percent of the respondents say they have used a social networking site while eating or drinking at home, and an additional 19 percent have tweeted or updated their statuses while at a restaurant.
