I don't know if I eat fast or slow... There have been a few times when the hubby is done and I'm still eating, but I didn't realize there was a time limit.... :dunno

That's a good point, if I'm eating at my desk, it's usually a quick, eat it while I can kinda thing. But if I go out or go to the dining room, I don't know - I'm going to have to pay attention and see.
 
I've been a fast eater all my life but even faster after boot camp at Fort Leonard Wood. I was all of a 123 lbs when I went into the Army so my drill instructor made me eat twice. I had to clear my plate and go back through the line and be done when everyone else was. I guess it worked, 28 years later I'm well over 123 lbs.

I have an employee who eats frustratingly slow. Just last week we all met at IHOP for breakfast. There were 6 of us there, by the time we all finished he still had over half his meal still left and he doesn't leave a morsel on his plate when he leaves the table. He actually chews each bite over 100 times, he admits it and I've actually counted.

Check please!!!

I bet I know who that is.
 
I don't think I'm particularly slow, but I do always seem to be the last to finish.
Now Papi, that boy eats FAST!!!
He said he grew up the youngest of five. If you wanted to eat, you HAD to be fast! :))

While I'm sure I could eat more slowly and that's good for digestion to chew more, that's kind of gross. I'm sitting here imagining chewing the same bite for 100 times, and yuck! I have a friend who is a Very Slow Eater, and hers is a dysfunction/control issue. SHE decides when everyone leaves, etc.
