totally me. 1995 Honda MiniVan. 260,000 miles and about that many meals as well. I'm sure there are vintage fries hiding in there somewhere.

Eating in my car is not an issue. But, if you make a gigantic mess and don't clean it up, or if you get out of the car, and don't take your trash w/you, then i get really upset.

One of the places I frequented was 711, so I don't give a shit. I never ate while driving, but I'd often reach for the slurpee.

I generally don't since I don't eat much fast food. I have done it when traveling for work. Sometimes I just want to get where I'm going and not have to stop to eat but I'm a neat freak and all trash is cleaned up and taken out ASAP.

I don't have any 'rules' against it but if people do it I expect them to be careful about it and clean up after themselves. I don't have kids nor would I want kids eating in my car.

I don't care as long as the trash is taken out ASAP.

Kids are not ever in my car. If there were, they would not be allowed to eat.

Awesome story of this 'not caring' back firing.

Went to pick up my husband from the airport after being gone for a while. I wore a cute outfit including a white skirt. I had made the mistake of trying a salad from Wendy's. BIG mistake. Well, I forgot about it and had it in the bag all afternoon. I pull up to the curb at the airport just as he walks up and it a hurry I tried to clean up the mess so he can jump in the car. Bag breaks. Nasty ass salad with dressing goes all over the front seats, center console and of course my pretty white skirt.

Ok, I thought about it some more... Let me expand on my "same" I posted earlier

I'm psychotic about the interior of my car being clean. I allow food to be eaten in there if we're in a hurry for some reason (though I detest fast food - if I'm eating anywhere other than my house it is generally a nice "sit-down" restaurant) but it's like a state park: you bring it in, you take it out. I tend to keep my vehicles for a long time and I like them to stay in good condition for as long as humanly possible.

I can't eat when I drive unless it's french fries or something like that, so I usually don't. I don't care if someone else does though.
