Conducted by OnePoll on behalf of Serta Simmons Bedding, the survey asked 2,000 adults about the things that most impact their sleep, and they found that eating in bed may be one of the biggest culprits.

According to Study Finds, 48% of people admit they regularly eat before bed, with the results showing they are most to crave sweets (50%) such as cookies (42%) or salty snacks (32%) like chips (49%) or popcorn (45%).

Having a partner who eats in bed however is most offensive to millennials, 38% of which saying they would consider ending the relationship if their partner routinely did it, though ironically enough, they are also the generation that is most inclined to snack in bed at 40% of those surveyed.

JD Velilla, Serta Simmons Bedding’s Head of Sleep Experience, said in a statement, “Studies have shown that sleeping hot can impede the body’s ability to rest and recover.

“Interrupted sleep may lead to irritability, increased stress and decreased creativity, among other things. If you tend to sleep hot, light clothing, breathable linens or a mattress with cooling technology can help.”
