Is it really that bad to eat fast?

anyway it's probably better for your digestive system if you take the time to chew food
You know how boring it is at my dining table.
No one talks.
If you talk
you get scolded.
Which is why I eat fast.
To avoid being scolded.
So to avoid getting scolded, you finished a meal that usually takes you 3-5 minutes in 1 minute? :confused:

You're a rebel.

there ya go

thanks :eek:

Why do I want to taste the food if I eat that food in a repeating cycle?... If it's something new and good... I'd do it... But eating rice with something ISN'T! :p

Uhh... no. lol..

Usually. I get 2-3 scoops of rice... which takes around 3-5 minutes. Here's a chart

2-3 scoops of rice w/ whatever = 10-15 minutes in parents minds = 3-5 minutes in my mind

1 scoop of rice w/ whatever = 5 minutes in my parents minds = 30 secs - 2 minutes in my mind.

I've found that I eat slower than most of my friends. Although my parents eat a lot slower than I do.

Going out to eat sometimes is bad cause I feel rushed to finish in the same time everyone else does.

If I eat slower I also eat less, so I guess thats good.
