Ok this is something I hate hate hate. I dont care if people eat around me if Im eating but when someone eats when Im not eating and I hear them chewing it makes me want to pull my hair out or scream or maybe rip the food out of his hands.

Im sitting here pretending to work,
and one of my co workers decided to eat his breakfast right beside me while he plays with my newest foster kittens. Im gonna have to scream at him if he doesnt stop eating! Its like nails on a chalk board for me.

Im with you on that. I hate hearing people chew even if I am eating with them. It grosses me out to hear people chomping away like a cow chewing cud.

I have to leave the room if my boyfriend starts eating potato chips or something, lol.

I would rather hear nails on a chalkboard, than listen to someone eating!

I've never heard of this!
Guess I never really thought about it. Growing up, there was the six of us in very close quarters and all happy to have food. If we didn't like people chewing, we woulda gone hungry

I wonder if my chewing bothers people? Will have to test that.

Now, if I am in a restaurant and someone is chewing with their mouth wide open, I may stare at them until they get the hint. Or with a niece or nephew I may suggest they close their mouth before a fly pops in.

Probably wouldn't marry a guy who wears his food on his sleeve, or chest, or ..... all the time


This is amazing


Edit: what about noisy foods? Like crunchy veggies? How does one chew those silently?

That annoys me too...not only the chewing part but especially if the person also breathes heavy while eating!

This could be irritiating!

Think I came across wrong in my last post. Didn't mean to sound like I was poking fun at anyone. I have little weird phobia things, too!
