I Hate Chewing Noises

My entire family and I all have this problem. In order to combat this we always make sure to eat our food with our mouths closed, don’t scrape the plates and always have a TV playing in the background.

I will give my friends that “look” when they are eating their food with their mouths open. They instantly apologize and continue to eat much more quieter.

Honestly sometimes I feel like a jerk but those sounds make me so angry and murderous thoughts invade my mind! I just want silence please and thank you 😅
