A new study has found that seven per cent of adults in the UK have nibbled food when making love - a total of 3.8 million people.

The research found that 22 per cent of Brits eat food when they are in the bath and 14 per cent even enjoy snacks on the toilet.

Peperami, which commissioned the poll of 2,000 adults, said: "We have found that one in seven Brits had eaten snacks on the loo and one in 14 had even got peckish when having sex."

Psychologist Jo Hemmings said of the findings: "The intriguing question is why do people reach for a snack in somewhat unconventional places?

"While many have a snack as a comforting habit, others prefer people not to know about their cravings. Either way, the locations speak for themselves of the lengths people will go to have a bite."
