Is it normal to be really really grossed out when people eat loudly?

I think it is so gross and disgusting and rude and uncivilized to eat loudly or with one's mouth open--making those smacking noises, sounding like a dog eating.

But sometimes educated, sophisticated people do it--and I wonder, is everyone else at the table really disgusted too and they are just being polite and pretending not to notice, or am I just overly sensitive about this?

    Eating like that is nasty, I know this guy that when he eats, he sounds like a chain saw. When I first heard it I almost dropped my food because he was so loud.

    Not everyone is born into families where a proper amount of manners are expected and then they grow up into adult slobs. They probably are not even aware of their own vulgarity.

    I totally agree with you, it's so disgusting! Like my housemate, she sounds like a pig when she eats and I literally have to leave the room because I don't want to be rude and upset her.

    Most guys are surely disgusting when they are alone.

    Well from experience, I've found if you tell them to shut up, they usually do. But they're usually quite offended and probably won't speak to you again. But it's just so damn disgusting :@
