To be a bit put off by people "cheers"-ing their food?

[00100001]

Like, they'll share an sandwich and say "cheers/bon appetit" like you do with a wine glass, and touch the food together?

It's weird, and when the food touches its 🤢

I’ve never seen anyone do this.

Not at all weird. Admittedly I mainly do this with my toddler but what’s the issue with food touching?

Never seen this before gross.

I have never seen anyone do this. Ever!

It's the first I've heard of it - I don't like it either.

It's only for Instagram. I doubt they've even eaten it. No-one does this in real life.

Where have you been eating??? 😂😂😂

YANBU. I've seen people do this. So weird.

I've done it with my DH and biscuits but it's weird with anyone outside a v immediate family (toddler , or DH to be silly)

Where are you eating, and who with ?

I have literally never seen anyone do this.

People share a sandwich?

I have never seen this

Why do they do this? Is it a good luck thing?

Literally no one does this

Some people do, somebody did it at lunch today at the pub ... Blergh

I have never seen this before.

I'm surprised so many people haven't seen this tbh

Haha, DD and I do this! In my defence she's 4 and it's a bit of fun. Let's face it, any germs she's got I 100% already have, so tapping our biscuits against one another is the least of our worries.

I’ve seen a few people do it on TV & thought it was odd.
Factual stuff, not just soaps or whatever. I’ve never seen anyone out in public do it though.

Do you do it before you start eating or with part eaten food? I assume as you mention germs you mean half eaten food, It sounds totally bizarre

Never seen it done but I think if I was in a group that tried to do this I would quickly lick my sandwich first. That'll put them right off 😂

I stand corrected! It just sounds a bit tragic to me, like people who say nom nom etc 🤢

I wouldn't say I see this a lot but I don't see how it's that gross. So what if the food briefly touches for a second. It's not like they lick each other's food.

@AllThatFancyPaintsAsFair We do it at the start, so we won't have bitten the biscuit before doing it. Bit like when you raise a toast with your glass of champers. Totally bizarre is a stretch, it's a bit of fun with my kid. 😂

I don't know why it just grosses me out for some reason
