OP, did you have a look at the woman to see if she was disabled? Perhaps she was recovering from a facial injury, or surgery? Maybe she had been to the dentist and was trying to get some food down with a numb mouth before getting back to work. Perhaps she had new dental braces. Whatever the reason for her noisy eating, I am certain it wasn't done just to piss you off.

Very true laGuardia , OR she may of been one of the countless millions who simply cannot eat without doing farmyard impressions at the same time .

I hate loud eaters!

Main reason why I never ever go to the cinema. The crunching and slurping would make me so mad I'd storm out in a huff lol.

The woman across from me in work drinks her tea with the spoon still in the bloody cup - that also makes me v stabby

Ex mil had really badly fitting dentures, there used to be a fight not to sit next to her when the family went out for dinner.

My BIL once looked across at her and said " I,ll name that tune in four" brilliant. he's the only member of that family that I miss.

LaGuardia what frumpet said.

Of course it was not done to piss me off, and of course I turned around to look at her. I thought a cow had just sat down for a chomp on a fry up.

My dad always blows his nose really massively after about five mouthfuls of hot food. At the table. In front of everyone else eating. Over his plate.

Try getting through the rest of your macaroni cheese after that.

This post has made me laugh and shudder!
Even my DSs know that eating with your mouth open and making nom nom noises is gross.

I hate noisy eaters too. I would of turned and also asked if she was okay? Then if that didn't work, when I left I would of taken her a napkin and set it beside her...

My DP is a noisy eater too... GULPS when he drinks anything, loudly sucks on every finger...I guess I should be happy he sticks his tongue out to catch any of his mess before the fork goes in! GROSSSS

I'm the type of person to say something... I don't beat around the bush. I don't allow my children to be rude, so I won't let you get away with it if I can help it either!
