This is No No
There are two reason why you are not welcome to eat on the train.
(1) You will be leaving mess on the floor and seats.
(2) Your food leave smell in the car.
(3) Eating in the places where it is not designed for is not polite.
Unlike Shinkansen, regular train will not have cleaning service for al day, so you should really not suppose to eat anything like what those couple are eating.

Japanese Train System
If so, what is your impression of Japanese train system?
Japan has one of the most well run train systems in the world.
It is so funny to see PA system apologizing for train being late for 2 minutes.
