Has anyone but me noticed the proliferation of people talking with their mouths full? Actors have used this as a tool for a long time - two people, one with a bowl of cereal, a spoon and a witty conversation that can't be interrupted by the chewing of food. But even my husband is doing it and it is just disgusting. Can't anyone hold their thought long enough to swallow their food?
The other day I caught the last of a Rick Bayless show on PBS. Just before the credits, they playing some spirited music, slowed down the video and showed everyone eating, laughing and talking with their mouths full. Now in slow motion? And the Food Network is littered with chefs who cannot wait to tell you how good the meal they just made is - who cares if most of it is still in their mouth, not their stomach.
Sorry to rant. But it was pet peeves night at the Saints game last week, and that one is mine. Big time.
