Re: Drinking and eating

I can't bear the thought of all those bits of chewed up food swishing around in a mouthful of water or tea. Yuk!

Re: Drinking and eating

You would swallow the food first LD, not water and food in the same mouthful!

Breakfast I drink coffee during the meal also.

I think it helps digestion if you drink while eating.
Thought you weren't coming back?

It's good that Blue came back, a break is sometimes all that is needed.

Re: Drinking and eating

Pretty sure the conventional "wisdom" is that you should drink 20 mins before your meal, like a glass of water for example, then eat your meal.

Quite, we all need a break sometimes!

Now back to food, I'm wondering if I should stop drinking during meals as I get acid reflux.
I don't drink alcohol btw.
Perhaps a poll...?

I don't drink while I'm eating. I read somewhere once about it whooshing food along too quickly if you do, interfering with normal digestion. But what do I know. . .

Ffosse, sounds like you have a problem going on between you and Blue.
Maybe it would be best to let Azz sort it out rather than airing your resentment in public, don't you think?

Re: Drinking and eating

I drink water throughout the day just plain Yorkshire water. I don't tend to drink whilst I'm eating unless it's a glass of wine...I like plain black and strong coffee after a meal.
