Netizens voted the 10 most disgusting behaviors when eating at the same table. The “smashing sound” of eating only ranked 6th? The 1st place was extremely disrespectful

Netizens voted the 10 most disgusting behaviors when eating at the same table. The “smashing sound” of eating only ranked 6th? The 1st place was extremely disrespectful

As the saying goes, "It's hard to meet each other, but it's hard to live together." In fact, "eating at the same table" is also a test of character!

10大同枱食飯最討厭行為排行榜

Recently, Ufood conducted an online survey on "the most disgusting behavior of eating at the same table", which resonated with a large number of netizens, who flocked to the comment section to express their bitterness and publicly judge the "excellent meal friends" they had met. The following is a list of the 10 most devastating dining table behaviors voted by netizens. It turns out that "crossing the river with a flying elephant" is not the most excessive!

10th: Crazy foot rubs/shakes shake the table

俗語說「人搖福薄」,在餐桌上抖腳絕對是大忌。有網民留言指,某些飯友坐姿極差,雙腳猶如裝了摩打般瘋狂搖晃,連帶整張飯枱、碗筷,甚至碟上的湯汁都跟著一起高頻震動。不知情的人還以為發生大地震,嚴重影響他人食慾甚至令人頭暈作嘔!

No. 9: The camera eats first and makes the dishes cold

As soon as the food is served, just as everyone is getting ready to take up their chopsticks, someone will always shout: "Wait! Let me take a picture first!" Taking one is not enough, you have to adjust the angle left and right, and take a close-up before taking a group photo. The result was a full 15 minutes, involving the whole table with chopsticks to accompany the dry wait, the originally hot, full of pan dishes all cold, the flavor is lost.

第8位:厚面皮「打包達人」

This kind of person is most common when we go to a banquet or restaurant for dinner. After just a few bites of a dish, someone shamelessly announced, "If you don't eat, I'll pack it up and take it away!" This statement was actually disguised to put pressure on the diners at the same table. Many netizens said that they had not finished eating yet, but because the other party had already opened their mouths, they were embarrassed to continue to mix the dishes, for fear of "hindering others from packing", and the atmosphere instantly became extremely embarrassing.

第7位:飛象過河 橫跨大半張枱

The most taboo thing is to stretch your hands too long when eating! When seeing their favorite delicacies in the distance, they even directly "flying elephants across the river", across the dishes in front of others to fold the dishes in the distance, very disrespectful! Netizens said: "Is it possible that you can only fold the dishes in front of you without teaching at home?" In fact, if you want to eat the dishes from afar, you can open your mouth and ask someone to help you pass them, or wait for the turntable to turn in front of you before folding them. This is basic respect.

6th: 𡁻 thing "smashing sound" open mouth chew loudly

這一點絕對是許多人的地雷!網民直言,聽到同枱的人開著口咀嚼,發出極度響亮的「汁汁、砸砸」聲,真的會令人全身起雞皮疙瘩。明明可以合上嘴食飯,他們偏不!無論對方的外表多光鮮,只要這個聲音一出現,整頓飯的氣氛即時被毀,讓人內心瘋狂吶喊:「好想直接反枱走人!」

No. 5: Mouthful of Food Talk Surprise "Free Add-on"

It's normal to chat while eating, but some people forget that they have a mouthful of food in their mouths once they get excited, and they have to make great remarks loudly. Diners at the same table are not only forced to appreciate the "half-bitten food residue" in each other's mouths, but the other person has a greater chance of spraying saliva mixed with crumbs all over the table. If unfortunately it lands on the dish shared by everyone, the extremely disgusting "free addition" will make people instantly nauseous and surrender.

第4位:極度自私食 專夾最靚「精華」

Overly obvious food grabbing behavior will definitely be labeled as "petty and selfish"! Netizens gave examples such as white-cut chicken, which quickly folds away two chicken legs as soon as it is served; the smoothest fish cheek meat (fish cloud) is dug out as soon as steamed fish is served. Or faced with the last piece of dim sum on the plate, the last piece of meat, without asking everyone "Does anyone eat?" without a sound to fold into their own bowl, completely ignoring the feelings of others.

第3位:假隨和 真難搞的「無意見」人士

Every time we have a dinner date and ask what we want to eat, there is always a kind of person who replies: "I don't care, you have your say, I eat everything." But when everyone carefully chooses a good restaurant or order good dishes, they immediately "bounce", many picky and even overturn other people's decisions. This kind of "fake democracy, really difficult" attitude will really make people roll their eyes, the annoying index is extremely high!

No. 2: Use chopsticks to "gold pan" to stir the dishes

There is a kind of people who are particularly picky when picking dishes. Netizens describe them as like they are "choosing a concubine". They use their own chopsticks to "turn left and right" and "tick to and fro" in the public plate. The whole dish was made a mess, like kitchen waste, which was extremely unhygienic, forcing the whole table to eat his "saliva tail"!

No. 1: Long-term phone calls when the person at the table is transparent

榮登榜首、奪得壓倒性最高票數的乞人憎行為,居然與食物無關,而是「瘋狂玩手機」!大家出來聚餐,本來就是為了聯絡感情、交流近況。如果難得與久不見的朋友或親戚食飯,卻全程低頭覆WhatsApp、打機、狂碌IG,把同枱的人當作透明,這絕對是對在座人士極大的不尊重,難怪成為網民心中的「最乞人憎榜首」!
