Your car, your rules.

We stop and eat at a table in a restaurant when traveling,
although we sometimes have a snack (potato chips or similar)
while driving. We would not consider extra burgers to be
a snack, but you eat a lot more than we do.

I'm pretty sure my husband occasionally eats fast food in his car,
but I don't eat in my car.

I probably would be ok with my husband eating lunch in my car,
but I never would drive while eating anything substantial; it's
too much of a distraction.
