For me, it’s corn on the cob.

    My stepdad would eat bananas with his mouth wide open as he chewed. And he’d chew each bite for a solid minute before swallowing. Even though it’s a banana and you can literally just mash it agains the roof of your mouth with your tongue. He would do this as he was driving, so I think he’d just get distracted and forget that he was still chewing food. But it made every ride to school in the morning an absolute living hell.

    So I’m gonna go with bananas.

      Were you a terrible kid? Sounds super passive aggressive (and kind of hilarious)

        Nah he’s just always had no self awareness when it comes to the noises he makes. Lots of loud chewing while you’re trying to eat, grunting and snorting in the middle of a conversation, full-volume “whispering” in movie theaters, etc. He’s not even hard of hearing or anything (dude hears like a bat, honestly), he’s just a very loud guy lmao

    My captor must have had experience working help desk. I’ve endured people eating chips and sandwiches, chewing gum, and sniffling with stopped up sinuses right in my ear, while trying to focus on fixing their computer.

    CRAB!

    My hubs loves them so I get to sit across the table and listen as he brutally cracks open his food.

    You know what they do with the legs, yeah?

      Does homeboy not know about crabcakes? All the taste, none of the pain in the ass and paying for the privilege of preparing your own food. Just get them somewhere that doesn’t use filler.

    Back in the day, a girlfriend of mine eating fries and mayo. She is a professor at Leuven University now, very smart mind, sweet and handsome…but you wouldn’t take her out to the snackbar because she would eat like a hungry pig.

      Same. I hate eating with other people unless theirs a loud tv/music in the background. I have found that those loop earplugs help with it at least but then you have to answer questions about what those are.

        Oh my god those loop earplugs have been a lifesaver! Started using them about a year ago. Can’t recommend them enough for anyone else suffering

    As someone who likes watching people eat this won’t work on me. I’m into this shit.
