: That's the way I understand it too, with very much the sense of 'on the move' — keeping going, not sitting down to eat, just swallowing this filth (sorry, wonderful nutritive product!) as you rush about.

avec vous, où que vous soyez (rephrase it)
I think it would be unwise to try and do a (too) literal translation of "on the go". I would myself prefer to rephrase it, giving it the same meaning but in a much simpler manner.
Example sentence:
Emportez vos nutriments avec vous, où que vous soyez.

: I think this translation is losing in dynamism and doesn't give the same idea/ feeling of activity

Well aren't you disagreeing then? I'm a little confused by your agreeing with me and posting this.

: I like this rephrasing if it is going to appear once in a sentence, but it wouldn't work in a catch phrase.
