Is it normal to stare at your food before you eat it?

Ever since I could remember, every bite of food or sip of drink I took, I'd have to examine it for at least 3 seconds before I eat it. It doesn't matter if it's ice cream, pasta, rice, soda, or ice; I always look at it before I eat it. Is this normal?

    Yes it's normal,because you like to know what specific things on your plate before you eat it, maybe?

    I think we could all learn from you. I know when I eat I'm just such a gannet....

    I look at my food and check for little awkward bits before I eat it, but not with every fork full, lol :P

    Wow, I bet you have really good digestion, since you aren't wolfing your food down.

    apparently its not normal according to my boyfriend because when i eat my food i do exactly the same thing. he tells me off because we are trying to watch something on the tv but i end up looking at my food instead of what is happening on the tv lol.
