Mouth Wide Open: The Downsides of Chewing with Your Mouth Open

We’ve all heard the phrase, “Close your mouth when you chew!” from our parents at some point in our lives. However, as we grow up and become more independent, it can be easy to forget such a simple act of manners. Sure, chewing with your mouth open seems harmless enough – you get to enjoy your food without being restricted by closed lips or jaws.

But, have you ever considered how unappreciated those around you would feel if they were forced to listen to the sounds of someone chomping on their steak like a cow?

In this article,we’ll explore some reasons why it’s important not just for basic table manners but also for social acceptance and hygiene purposes to keep that pie hole shut while eating!

Table Manners

When we sit down at dinner tables or any place where food is served, there are certain standards adults expect us to abide by. One major element is our behavior while we eat, including chewing silently with our mouths closed.

Unfortunately, many people didn’t learn good etiquette growing up and never realized that loud smacking and slurping during meal times isn’t only bothersome; it can be disgusting too! No one wants bits of meat flying out onto their clothes or faces.

If everyone keeps their vents securely fastened while masticating not only does that reduce the noise pollution but also saves everyone else from potentially queasy moments.

Social Acceptance

Often measured what’s acceptable socially differs between different groups or regions of society. Sometimes in life an individual has no say over whether others will associate themselves closely with them but keeping honest through proper behaviour works wonders here even when everything else fails

What might seem like a minor misgiving (chewing loudly) could cause people around us unseen discomfort . If somebody is required to spend an extended amount of time around us, like say within the cramped dimensions of a cubicle suite or between adjoining workstations, our small neglect could lead to awkwardness and irritation.

Sadly receiving this kind of negative attention may go unnoticed until it’s too late. If you’re unsure how others perceive your chewing behavior, trust me… They do notice!

Germs and Hygiene

If you think about it profoundly, keeping one’s mouth open while eating can have quite impressive implications on others in your vicinity. When you breathe out as food remains are airborne microorganisms exit from the oral region into surrounding air pushing droplets which then land onto surfaces in the nearby vicinity.

This exchange must be limited behind closed lips for two critical reasons: firstly – courtesy towards those seated alongside us – secondly- for health safety purposes that makes hygiene a primary concern when carbs particles might fly without check through our mouths with each wire brushing pass.

Just remember, no matter where we are consuming meals adequate table manners will always remain unwaveringly imperative to uphold good standing wherever mortals eat!

Conclusion

In summary,we discussed three important points why opening up wide while dining just isn’t worth annoying people or risking hygiene issues:

1) Table manners dictate quiet chewing etiquette
2) Social acceptance means respecting other’s space
3) Germs don’t belong airborne so keep them contained

So, next time at dinner let’s start practicing good habits and show some respect towards fellow diners by looking after these things together.
