Learn How To Eat - Really

I  came across the following qoute from a Fitness expert:

The first lesson of proper nutrition is learning how to eat. We do this by sitting down, chewing, breathing, and focusing on our meal, not the TV or computer."
--Lance Breger, co-founder of the Infinity Wellness Foundation, as quoted by the Chicago Tribune

This is a very simple concept but does anyone really practice it?  With today's many options to keep us entertained, is it any wonder that we are not ever really concentrating on the actual act of eating.  Maybe there was a time when we sat around the table together and the focus was the meal but today it seems that those times are few and far between.  I am going to try to learn how to eat and see what happens, mybe you can try it to?
