I grew up hearing that at the dinner table. However has anyone experienced their food getting stuck if they talk while eating? It happens everytime. I don't think its the chewing because it is not food specific. Happens with slider foods too.

So guess I gotta go back to listening to momma. What's your take on this?

I've never heard this saying, but my god if I'm in a social setting with the girls, or business lunch, etc it never fails!! I eat too quickly, and get stuck because I'm not paying attention.

It doesnt happen much anymore, because I'm used to it by now, but it sucks!

I haven't experienced this at all.

I tend to stretch my meals out and that conversation time allows me fill up and lose that sense of urgent hunger. Thats just me though. I'm chatty!

yes, i have that happen to me, cuz when I'm talking I'm not fully present and aware that my food needs to be chewed fully before I swallow....and sometimes I forget to put down the fork or spoon in between bites. That is one habit I'm happy to say I'm doing much better at.....

Happens to me too...just lack of concentration, eating to fast & not chewing I think!!

Thanks Ladies. I've been around a long time but guess I just get too excited when talking and before I know it, stuck. It does not cause problems now but it could lead to problems in the esophagus. I will work at eating now talking later. LOL
Have a great day.
