Eating manners

[TerokNor]

This may be a strange thing to ask, but while I was just having my dinner I wondered...how are your eating manners when you eat alone?
Are they the same that you´d shown in a restaurant or when generally eating with other people around?
Like do you like licking your plate clean or using your finger to get it clean?
Do you like eating spaghetti only with a fork either sucking them in or holding the fork up into high air and eating from the spaghetti-end thats hanging in the air?
etc.

(who certainly enjoys giving in to the desire to get every bit of food from the surface of the plate inside the mouth, when the meals tasty, no matter how...especially because the sauce is mostly THE BEST in a meal and tends to stay on the plate in wasteful amount if you don´t violate manners. )

Like do you like licking your plate clean or using your finger to get it clean?

Depends on how good it is, but I might do that in a restaurant too if I really like it (or at least scoop everything up with my fork or so).

I generally eat in a somewhat civilised manner even when I'm alone at home too, but I guess I'm a little bit sloppier.

I just eat out of a dog bowl when I'm alone.

^ Dog bowl? Way to be all fancy, Mr. Too Good for a Trough.

 

[Shatnertage]

Trough? You have a trough? Living in the lap of luxury, aren't you? I use a muddy hole in the ground.

 

[SPOCKED]

Sad to say I eat standing about 95% of my meals at home whether I'm alone or not. It's like... I don't have the time to sit at the table or something

 

[trekkiedane]

I don't like getting my fingers greasy and I especially don't like touching my food with my hands. I suppose you could call me a 'neat' eater... I always have been.

Do you like eating spaghetti only with a fork

There's only one way to eat spaghetti: you roll it up on a fork! -I don¨'t understand what you're suggesting here:

either sucking them in or holding the fork up into high air and eating from the spaghetti-end thats hanging in the air?
etc.

I do that alone at home or if I'm with relatives or close friends.
At the restaurant, it's bread's job to clean the plate

 

[tharpdevenport]

I do what ever I would do at him, except site naked and maybe play with myself.
I won't, however, pick a piece of food off the floor, like candy with a smooth finish, off a resturant floor. No way.


At a glance I thought the thread title was Eating members.

(no, the dirty meaning was not what I thought)

 

[Robert Maxwell]

I first read the title as "Eating manure" and was afraid to click.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

I have good manners, although I do drink milk straight from the container...

 

[Captain Shaw]

If I'm alone and having soup, I will sometimes lift the bowl to my mouth to get the last bit.

OK, I too am guilty of that.

Fah! I used to dream of eating out of a muddy hole in the ground!

 

[scotpens]

When I'm at home alone, I eat like John Belushi in Animal House. Except that I'm frequently naked.

 

[iguana_tonante]

I am pretty neat even when home alone, but I'm not above picking stuff with my hands, or eating directly from the pot if it's convenient. No licking of plates, tho.

That's what bread is for. And yes, I do it at restaurants, too (with moderation, of course). Avoiding it is actually an instance of over-correction, since doing it is not considered impolite to start with.

Now that's just wrong and inefficient!

That's why you should have soup in a mug.

That doesn't always work! most soups I eat have all sorts of good chunks in them.

 

[iguana_tonante]

Ah, my marvellous plan is foiled.

And you try and tell the young people of today that...they won't believe you!

Your mug just isn't big enough.
