Do you chew your food thoroughly before swallowing it?

Chew, what is the this chewing thing you speak of? I simply inhale my food.

In all seriousness I am generally good at chewing my food to the point of detecting things I don't want in it. But I still do inhale my food, I can't sit there and take 30 minutes to eat a sandwich, it's gone in 4 bites. It annoys my fiancee, she always says to me "can you even taste your food?" less

A man in Tacoma, Washington had a health scare last weekend, he swallowed a steel bristle from his grill brush link, and it made me wonder whether he's chewed his food properly before swallowing it.
Do you chew your food thoroughly or just chew a few times and swallow it down? Are you good at detecting bones/foreign objects in your food while chewing? less

When it comes to a good piece of quality steak, I enjoy chewing it with LOVE! When it comes to fish, I am good at detecting any bones before swallowing it! One technique to use IF you swallow a small fish bone is to eat a slice of bread; it will find its way to the acid rich stomach and get dissolved! less
