How is it even possible to swallow food directly without grinding it properly first?

ibkayee:
I used to chew it until I found out you’re supposed to just swallow it

Edit:
Didn’t phrase my question clearly.
I mean ‘swallows’ like pounded yam, amala, semolina etc.

bigl:


I do chew before until the day bone from fish stood gidigba across my throat... big ball of eba couldn't push it and i suffered for some hours ... so since that day, even if na akamu (pap), i will chew .... fear of bones is the beginning of wisdom

What is your business with how people eat their meals

Well, yes, there are. But lol, who's counting while chewing, tho? Most of us don't, however, it's def. good to keep in mind b|c it aids digestion and prevents overeating - you feel fuller longer when you eat slowly than fast. French people eat slowly, which is one of the reasons not many of them are obese, compared to America's colossal 34%. They live longer and have lower death rates too. While there are definitely other factors behind these, I think their eating habits play a huge role.

Lol, that makes sense. I was thinking, 'Ahhnn ahnn, how can I just be swallowing anything w/o chewing?'.
Just imagine how many people would be flooding the ER if that were the case.
