The Reading Diet

Inspired by reading back over my own past posts (hunting for POTO commentary, mainly), I've been trying the Reading Diet -- or rather the No-Reading Diet -- again, with a similar degree of success to last time.

Basically, it works by making food extremely boring: the principle being that you can eat what you like and read what you like, but are not allowed to do both at the same time! This tends to massively decrease the enjoyment of 'snacking', if the latter constitutes an interruption to reading activities rather than an accompaniment to them...
