I try to but I failed. To me, it is alright to make sounds while you are chewing. It means you are relishing your food. However, some people take offense at such noise. They say such noises show we are unpolished in our social manners! At home, I just eat. No, I do not care what others say.

Well well, to some culture, making noise while eating is a form of disrespect, while some culture, they see it as a form of appreciation to the nice food.. lol =D
As for myself, i dun really make much noise when i'm eating for i dun chew my food properly.. lol =D Since i dun chew much, i dun have much noise to make.. lol =D As such, i tend to be eating very fast, as if i'm a robot, with no stopping in between.. lol =D

I think i take less than 10 minutes to eat, and my fastest can be below 5minutes.. lol =D It all depends on what i'm eating, and thus my drinking.. hehe ^_^ If i'm eating something dry, i will be drinking and eating at the same time.. IF not, my drinks will be left for the last to wash my mouth.. haha =D

Yes, I make sounds, when I am chewing my food. It is not only me, it is with most of our South Indian, who make a sound when they chew. I think this is because of our rice eating culture, where you chew the rice, before swallowing.

Real loud ones, like slurping the rice in the mouth before chewing, some times the sounds are so high, that I feel like giving up and run away from that place.

hello acie_21,
i guess not. but sometimes when i am eating cruchy food, i can not help but to enjoy the food. i think that is different from the noises when someone is chewing food which is not necessary. for i hate hearing those sounds, is like the pig who is eating. make me feel so annoy about it.

Good topic my friend...you know what every time I hear that from anyone who's eating with me has no table manners. So annoying and disgusting.... I really hate that kind of eating manner...my brother in law is like that, I just couldn't complain because I don't want to argue with it... Thanks for that nice topic..

hello, well it depends on what situation I am in. When I am having food in public place, I would pay attention more about my behavior, and try not to make too much noise when eating... being a lady, haha
but when I am having food along (or with my dog) at home, I would meks some noise. so that i can eat faster, and I feel that when eating at home, that food seems more dilicious.

I think eating with loudly sound is more likely to catch guys attention, the reason why I eat silently, is becuase that I don't like to catch guys attention, because their girlfriend will kill me, haha...

Mmm, sometimes I do I guess but you know that is a good question. I'm not sure. What kinds of noises? Like chewing, smacking or "Mmmmm." Now I know I am not a loud messy sounding kind of eater, I think my family would have told me by now! lol

Sometimes i do , but immediatly i stop that, because i hate thouse noises when i hear them from others and from me too . I saw that when someone will eat bananas , they will make that kind of noises . Yougurt makes people chewing too . It`s not so nice to hear thouse noises . A lot of food make us to chew and we`ll make that kind of noises, but we all must stop doing that , and to eat in silence.

hi delkar..
eating in silence is impossible but what we must avoid is too much loud noises that disgusting to hear and see...

you do have a good post, i honestly don't like the sounds of chewing the food. it do sounds like a pig that is eating. my sister is chewing foods with a sound on it, and i do irritate it so much that i always tell her to keep her mouth shut while eating.

It depends on the food you ate. Some food you eat makes noises, some is ok.However,
in Japanese culture, if you drink soup you must drink with a slurppy sound. If you drink your soup silently you are consider rude. In Punjabi culture after eating, you must make a 'burp' sound. If not you are rude.

No. I've been taught that making noises when chewing food is not proper. My mom says it's like eating like a pig. lol.

no way. i don't make noise while chewing my food. it looks very bad that you are chewing food and the person sitting in front of you is making noise as he chews his food. i don't even like those people who makes noise while chewing their food......
