<p>A. The Beis Yosef( Choshen Mishpat 34) cites the opinion of Rabbeinu Tam that the restriction of eating in a market is limited to
<em>achilas keva</em> (a bread-meal), but he does not accept this leniency. According to the Beis Yosef all types of foods are included. However, the Aruch Hashulchan (CM 34:18) rules like Rabbeinu Tam. The Aruch Hashulchan also accepts the lenient opinion
of the Bach, that the prohibition of eating is applicable only if done on a regular basis, but not when done on occasion. However, the Bach writes that a
<em>talmid chacham</em> should not walk and eat outside. The Bach writes that a <em>
talmid chacham</em> should also not drink while walking outside in public.</p>
