if im at home i pray before eating but if im in public or im with my peers i dont pray before eating just because every people who could see me praying will consider me a pretender....i already experience it when one big guy confront me and told you pretent to be a son of God but i know you....your devilish deep inside...

Hi meenneixz! Yes, I do pray before eating but not always like what you've said above. I also forgot to pray especially when I am already hungry. Otherwise, I thanked God for the food and blessings that I received everyday.
Have a nice day and God speed!

Hello meenneixz :)
Yes, I always pray before eating. Even when I'm in public. When there are strangers, I say my thanksgiving prayer as short as possible though. I really don't care what they think. It seems that it's automatic with me. Before I start to pick up my spook and fork or chopsticks, I automatically say, "Thank you Lord for this blessing...etc". :)

I am catholic. I make the sign of the cross before and after prayer. :)

Hi meenniexz! I think I understand your position friend, but I don't think we should feel shy or something even in the midst of people. The enemy wants to see us in a situation where we'll relent in praying and then He'll attack us. Even if you won't pray in a high voice, but you can pray even in your heart. That's what I think and feel. Thanks and have a great day.
