How quickly do you eat a meal?

[owlets]

I'm trying to slow down my eating, and enjoy the taste rather than shovelling it down.
I've always eaten quickly. I remember when I was a kid finishing way before everyone else. I'd say my DH is a speedy eater too, so I can't really compare myself against him.
So how long does it take you to eat your meals? (assumimg you eating alone/just with DH, and don't have to rush to tend to the kids/go to work etc)
Even when I try to eat slowly I seem to finish in a reallly short space of time.

Much slower since I lost weight. I'm a single parent so didn't notice til I went out for a meal with a friend. I took much longer over my food, hers was gone in less than 10 minutes. I am certainly more conscious of what I eat now, but had no idea that I had actually slowed down iyswim.

they say you should put your knife & fork down between each mouthful - do not have the food ready on your fork. Do not eat whilst doing other things. (Having said that I am eating my lunch & typing this!)

OMG owlets i am the same
i always finish first and DH reckons i dont chew my food
