I've just discovered that I'm a monster.

46 years old and I just realised that when I eat a yoghurt, I stick my tongue out under the spoon and draw the spoon into my mouth.

There's no place for me in civilised society is there?

The only correct way to eat a kitkat is with a cup of tea, you dip the ends of the fingers in the tea and bite them off then suck tea up using the remaining kitkat as a wafer straw so it goes all warm and soggy and then stuff the whole lot in your mouth!!! Mmmmmmm

@JustGotToKeepOnKeepingOn

I met a woman once who worked at muller. She told me to never, ever lick the lid. She'd see now they were made Envy
I need to know

not rtft

any mentions of toast tent yet?

TheChosenTwo · 03/07/2021 08:52

To be honest @ZingDramaQueenOfSheebai I think it’s a pretty accepted view worldwide that anyone who doesn’t make a toast tent is a monster. That doesn’t really even need clarifying surely?!

Toast tent?

Well this is embarrassing.
I've just realised I'm 47 🤣 48 in December.
I had to use an age calculator webpage

You sound like you belong on a lily pad.

Anyone for putting your lips, pursed like around an invisible straw, to a heap of yog on a spoon and sucking it in? Marvellously satisfying. Only works with thick yoghurt like Greek, obv.

I lick the lid.

PeppermintTea2021 · 03/07/2021 10:12

Basically everyone is now miming what the OP described now right?

My XH used to involuntarily open his own mouth when feeding the baby, when the baby opened his mouth and copy mime the babys chewing. Otherwise reasonable man but like I say X and I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a factor.

My sister used to bare her teeth like a horse when drinking from a glass. That was awful too.

I have a colleague who eats a large Tupperware pot of yogurt and fruit each morning in the staff room in a way that makes me want to scream.

Opens mouth wide, shoves heaped dessert spoon of yogurt in to mouth, tongue under spoon, often clacks teeth off of spoon. Tongue wraps visibly round spoon to get all yogurt off. Then consumes large mouthful of yogurt by smacking mouth open and shut. Usually talks whilst eating. The final mouthful involves holding spoon vertically upright whilst she licks it all over.

If this is how you eat yogurt, please do it in private.

This thread makes me realise I'm a dainty eater in comparison with the horrors described here Grin

I'm sure I heard of someone who ate Wotsits like this, to prevent the orange fingers. So she stuck her tongue out, "picked up" a Wotsit and brought it back to her mouth.

AmIPeriOrAreYouJustAnnoying · 04/07/2021 07:13

@Camomila why would people get ill licking lids?!?! Surely most people lick the kids 🤷🏻‍♀️

AmIPeriOrAreYouJustAnnoying · 04/07/2021 07:16

Dilbertian · 04/07/2021 07:29

Don't you lick the kids? Confused
