Most peeps cannot attend thoughts without remaining lost in thoughts. Thoughts are "sticky." This is why I suggest attending sensory perception until thoughts can be seen through. I also suggest ATA because it doesn't confer a sense of specialness equivalent to most usual forms of formal meditation.
During chomping and slurping (eating and drinking) there are usually no thoughts whatsoever, so no thought of "actual" ever appears. FWIW, no thought of mind-ing occurs either. Chomping and slurping are "non-conceptual," but hopefully no one will get attached to that word either.
