Breathtaking news! Eating with your mouth open improves the taste of food
Age: As old as the food itself.
Appearance: Highly intelligent and scientifically responsible.
How rude. No way. In fact, eating with your mouth open might just be the best way to experience food.
I don't believe you, but explain yourself. Research from the University of Oxford found that chewing your food with your mouth open can help release volatile organic compounds.
Yes, help release them all over the slick, you oik disgusting. No way. Research has found that opening your mouth can help flavor compounds reach the back of your nose. This, in turn, stimulates your olfactory sensory neurons, which makes food taste better.
I'm not. It's a bit like swirling wine in a glass before drinking it.
Oh, now I get it. So are you going to?
Absolutely not. What happened to manners? Oh, you mean the societal construct invented to abnormally regulate human behavior, so as not to offend the sensibilities of an increasingly redundant ruling class?
Yes, exactly. At the end of the day, you have to ask yourself a simple question: do you want to adhere to a useless label system for the rest of your life, or do you want to enjoy food as it was designed for taste?
The first! You haven't read? Always the first! OK fine. If you want to make your food taste better, but don't want to open your mouth, there are alternative methods.
Like what? Have you tried eating mindfully? It's a method that forces you to fully concentrate on whatever you put in your mouth. With each bite, you ask yourself a series of questions. What does it taste like? What temperature is it ? Is it hard or soft, crunchy or chewy? What does it do when I bite on it? What emotions does this evoke?
No, too laborious. Then you can try to chew everything you eat well. Reducing everything you eat to a fine porridge before swallowing will not only help your digestion and reduce stress on your esophagus, but some claim it can also make you more sensitive to taste.
Also, too laborious. I don't know then. Just cover it all up with tons of ketchup?
If that's what it takes... Or, you know, you can just be free and quiet and try to eat the open mouth.
Never! I really hope someone publishes a study that links putting your elbows on the table to immortality. You'd explode.
Say, "Eating with your mouth open can make things tastier."
Don't say not: "Unless you're sitting across from someone who does."
