People eating grapes

Does anyone else find it really irritating?

I’m tolerant of most things, but it’s the noisiest, most irritating noise ever!

Literally never noticed

Mum2jenny · 31/03/2024 20:36

You are weird, can’t get the issue with ppl eating grapes. It’s no different to any other fruit

DSD9472 · 31/03/2024 20:37

Surely they aren't as noisy as a juicy peach or plum or the crunch of an apple? At least the grape is fully within someones mouth, so unless they are chomping with their mouth open, its quieter than other fruit. 😕

calligraphee · 31/03/2024 20:38

Much quieter than carrots, celery or apples surely?

WarshipRocinante · 31/03/2024 20:38

How are grapes noisy?

BigMandyHarris · 31/03/2024 20:39

It’s something to do with them squelching within the mouth I think

What noise? Grape eating is a silent occupation in my experience hitherto, and I'm nearly 70.

AhBiscuits · 31/03/2024 20:41

Nah.
My husband smashes food down like a starving labrador but even he eats grapes quietly.

I'm intolerant of a lot of bad eating habits but eating grapes is not one of them and can't see why it would be a problem

Never noticed any noise with grapes.
Watermelon, cereal, noodles are my irritants.

mondaytosunday · 31/03/2024 21:11

I don't think I've been in anyone's company who is eating grapes other than my own family. My sister used to peel them which was annoying.

Some people just like to wine...

Grapes are fine, cherry tomatoes are not.

I’m with you. It sounds like DH is popping tiny skulls when he eats grapes. Each bite is like a small brain being popped.

Floralnomad · 31/03/2024 21:22

I think whoever you are listening to is a noisy eater

FabulousWealthyTart · 31/03/2024 21:34

I love a nice juicy pear, but too noisy to eat in company. Grapes are OK though.

My DH has an apple every evening, that’s fine it’s good for him, whatever makes him happy, but the noise, all the crunching, he drowns out the tv !

I work with 2 people that eat an apple every day - I have to get up and walk away! 🤣

Grapes are fine, but the person who invented selling nachos at the cinema needs to be strung up

Chitterlina · 31/03/2024 23:06

Yes they crunch like eating eyeballs or something. Not that I know what that’s like.
