Experts say there's always a reason behind human behavior. I find myself often clueless to determine any reasoning behind some of the things I observe.
Eating can be a very personal experience and it's intriguing to observe the many styles we display. For those of us using forks and knives during our meal, some will cut their foods in small portions and eat each item separately. Others will stab at multiple food items prior to placing the all the items into their mouth at the same time.
I've seen eaters make sure that they separate the food items into discrete territorial spots on their plates while others will aggressively mash their food multiple, multiple times prior to ingesting. Some diners will bend their head forward to meet the food half-way while others bring their forked food all the way up to their mouth.
I suspect that most of us never think (including me) about how we eat our meal and I wonder how much of ourselves are reflected by our eating? What eating styles have you seen that either makes total sense or total nonsense to you?
Do you really want a piece of this? Would love to hear your thoughts.
