smart computer use?

You probably eat food while using your computer. You might do it a lot. You might not do it that often. You might eat food at your computer during almost every meal. You might eat food at your computer only a couple times a month.

If you use a computer on a frequent basis, you have probably eaten food while using it. All of us have. If you haven’t, congratulations to you, your decision has probably saved you from a keyboard destroying accident or two.

If you don’t eat food at your computer, you probably drink beverages while at it. That can be a bad idea too, depending on the types of containers you use for your beverage drinking escapades.

Anyways, I’m going to discuss some bad foods and types of foods to eat at your computer. Not eating these foods might save you some keyboards and maybe some other stuff.

Bad types of foods to eat over your keyboard or at your computer:

• Foods that splatter, with the splatting ending up on the screen or in/on the keyboard.
• Foods that crumble, with the crumbling resulting in crumbs in the keyboard or under the mouse.
• Foods that crunch, with the crunch resulting in a crunch shrapnel that flies into the keyboard.
• Foods that you handle with your hands, resulting in sticky, gunky hands.

Bad foods to eat at your computer:

• Spaghetti. This will splatter all over the place. Any dropped noodles will be tough to clean up.
• Soups. Soups will splatter, once again. A thick soup might be okay, but probably not.
• Sandwiches with crunchy or crumbling bread. The crumbs will get in the keyboard. The crumbs will get under your mouse.
• Buffalo wings. Not that anybody would actually try this.

Overall, just look at the situation logically. If the food you are eating is going to make your keyboard and mouse sticky, or if it’s going to splatter or crumble, be careful. Your computer will thank you and your keyboard will last longer.
