Because there is always the risk that you accidentally spill your drink over your computer or keyboard. It is advised that if you drink near your computer that you use closed bottles, decreasing the risk of spilling your drink.

It doesn't matter to drink near the computer. It depends on the personal care. If you are a careless person, it is needed to worry that you can drop your cup of drink over your computer.If you believe yourself that you won't drop the cup, you can drink near the computer.

This is a rule which schools, colleges and university use. If you are drinking near a computer and you spill it, it will cause hardware damage.

For eating, you can touching the food and touching the keyboard and mouse also. You hands may be sticky or greasy and your transferring it onto the computers hardware. This is fine until someone else comes along to the computer and starts typing and clicking away.

Like I said, this is only for schools, colleges and universities only.
