Angry EW stop it! I don't want to know that you're "nomming" your food. Biscuit

Do people actually say it in real life when eating?! I thought it was an internet thing, like saying 'om nom nom' if something looked tasty? Have never come across this irl before! :s

Whatutalkinboutwillis · 08/11/2014 20:54

So glad it's not just me. Hate it!

LikeSilver · 08/11/2014 20:54

It makes me think of Cookie Monster. I always want to say 'me want cookie'.

VitoCorleone · 08/11/2014 20:54

Urgh, its disgusting, i want to scream when i hear/see it

Achangeisadgoodasarest · 08/11/2014 20:54

CuttedUpPear · 08/11/2014 20:54

For some reason it makes me think they are referring to fellatio.

Envy Envy < < vom vom

OttiliaVonBCup · 08/11/2014 20:55

It's worse than vile.

nocoolnamesleft · 08/11/2014 20:55

Not keen on "nom nom"... but I do like more letters than that in eeeeeiiiuuuuuwww. Makes it more satisfyingly onomatopoeic.

Yum scrum is just as bad imo.

Only1scoop · 08/11/2014 21:03

I think people who say these hideous words also would say 'lolz' etc.

cardibach · 08/11/2014 21:04

Nom nom is ridiculous and very annoyIng, not least because it is nothing like anything anyone would have actually said before it became popular. Makes me think of someone with their mouth open and full of food. YANBU.

mrsruffallo · 08/11/2014 21:04

I've never heard it.

YANBU

I thought it was from a different European language because the first time I heard it was on a badly dubbed yoghurt advert. Is it?

BelleateSebastian · 08/11/2014 21:09

I fucking hate 'nommers' even worse if they use it as a verb ..... fb status from last week "going for a nommy Nandos with my man tonight' aaarggghhh Confused

IgnoreMeEveryOtherFuckerDoes · 08/11/2014 21:10

Yes makes me shudder for some reason

OraProNobis · 08/11/2014 21:10
