I do but my problem is I want to take my time to enjoy my food but it never stays hot/warm long enough so usually halfway through I’m just shoveling food in my mouth.
So i had gastric bypass surgery 15 years ago and i haven’t had a “warm” meal since; my family/friends know im the slowest eater ever. Tbh ive learned to savor my food and my palate has expanded from way beyond what i used to eat; there’s not a lot i won’t at least try!
I prefer to scarf it down when it’s piping hot, my body however has a digestion problem. The picky mf requires me to eat slowly otherwise it goes scorched earth on my insides.
It depends if the food is better the the initial temperature or I hadn’t eaten in a while and am all shaky then I will eat it fast lol but otherwise I do tend to get idk like overwhelmed when I eat food idk why like even emotionally too im like omg I need to eat this food. Generally it is better for your digestive system to eat slower though. I’m not a picky eater though but if I’m expected to have better manners with no burping or hiccups then yeah I have to eat slower. It’s also been useful to just turn an entree into two meals.
I’d like to, but years and years of having jobs where I had to shovel food into my face on the fly or else not have time to eat at all has just made it a habit.

nobody eats slower
Savour the flavour, don’t waste the taste

I’m already the slowest eater out of my friends and family. When I’m eating alone, I take all the time in the world.

Nope. Years of food service turned me into a speed eater. My coworkers often asked whether I actually got to taste my food while eating.
