to think that it is unacceptable to make negative comments about the food people are eating in front of them?

I'm not talking about people eating truly disgusting food like McDonalds but if you are in a restaurant, say, and you choose the fish and someone else at the table doesn't like fish and therefore they have to say things like "ewwww, I hate fish, how can you eat that?"

Its rude and ill-mannered.

Yes?

The children I look after are under strict instruction not to use the word disgusting as I personally think it is rude. No problem if they don't like something, just don't go on about it!
