Mitzvah #263 - Eating while you work

A worker may not eat from the food he is working with, except in a field during the final stages of harvesting. While reaping he may not yet eat from the crop.

Applies to everybody, everywhere, always.

Verse: "...do not lift a sickle onto your neighbors's crop" (Devarim 23:26)
