Dont get me wrong, I love food itself. I love trying spicy, aromatic dishes and also a big fan of seafood. But the act of chewing food and devouring it is so savage and barbaric to me. Especially in group settings. Also this is not a vegetarian vs non vegetarian thing. I am sitting here eati g greek salad. I get why we need to eat. I just wish we were more dignified and consumed energy from the sun or wind or something. The whole idea of eating is very disruptive and undignified. It doesnt matter if you have table manners or if you use forks.

i guess if someone just stuffed their face I could see what you're talking about? I think eating normally and not in a crazy way is more than fine. I like the taste of food and the chewing, basically everything about eating I like.
Can't fight nature dude. The way our body manages to turn many types of foods into usable energy is nothing short of fascinating.
Best thing you could do is own a powerful blender and consume everything as liquids, lol.
Reminds me of that kids CGI show "Monster Buster Club" it's about kids who hunt aliens in earth that break the rules, and one of the characters who is an alien herself says something hilariously insensitive about how humans are pretty savage because "you guys do eat looking at each other".
I wish there was a pill that would supplement an entire meal.
that would be great. Not needing to eat meals, just take a pill with all the nutrients needed and there.

Do you feel the same way about pooping?
It's a waste of time to feel cynical about eating if you don't feel worse about pooping. Pooping is a disgusting, vile act of living that is far more savage. But we all have to do it.

Sounds like you'd be a good candidate for some kind neuroelectronic simulation, where you can directly be fed the nervous system signals for the flavor of a food, with none of the actual mechanical mashing up, swallowing and digesting that is normally required. I think it's probably possible to live without chewing, if you're willing to blend all your nutrients into liquid form, but I imagine you wouldn't get invited to a whole lot dinners anymore at that point.
I think you're right. We're all talking jolly-like with friends and acquaintances while snacking on what was only days or weeks prior living beings. Munch munch munch, so we don't deserve George Ezra. Munch munch munch, we totally don't. We don't even think about it after the first few bites and swallows.
Are you misophonic/sensitive to eating sounds?
I kinda am but I'd never come to this conclusion lol

You know, to an extent, I can see what you're saying, depending on how certain people eat. That said, I'm sure that you could find foods that don't require you to eat in a way that bothers you, if it's really that much of an issue for you. Furthermore, you could always blend and drink your "food" to avoid the whole chewing thing. I, personally, rarely get any sort of satisfaction from eating. I don't eat for flavor or enjoyment; I just eat because I realize that I need to in order to live and function.
Sounds like you need Soylent. It was made for freaks of nature who hate eating. I mean that in the nicest way. :)
I swear to god this surrealism about existing has to be shock content at this point. I mean my mind can travel while I shit or wait to fall asleep, but good fucking lord, savage is not an adjective I woild describe eating with.
