Several years ago I took a group of HS students to Japan and it was a hot day in Kyoto when we stopped at a vending machine. I said we should drink our drinks and deposit the cans in the recycle bin next to the machine.
One student started walking saying it was a waste of time to stand and drink our cold drinks, but she only made it a few steps before an elderly woman shook her finger and scolded her.
As a foreigner, I try to not bring a lot of negative attention to myself, so I try and not eat and drink on the move.
