Plus how about adding a random effect for people who eat on the run, with easy an upset tummy or a barf animation (complete with a drop in the hunger bar after a player pukes).
Good suggestion, as it is now resting pretty much equals: Alt+TAB and reading the wiki or forums. It could be more of a social activity.
Maybe add a cumulative bonus if you eat while resting AND near a campfire, then we will start seeing player made camps similar to what we had in Star Wars Galaxies.
Imagine while exploring the map you spot a campfire with a few players around it resting and eating, are they friendly or bandits ? You walk up to them and from there it could go multiple ways: You get invited to share their food and make friends, or make a terrible mistake and end up dead.

cool idea. cumulative bonus would also be extra insentive to held gatherings. After all the Developers are already working on ableing us sitting in chairs. It would work well together.
