    No macrobiotic people are taught to chew "300 times" per mouthful and I heard about this years ago so I just sort of started trying to do it and counting you know?  Long before I ever became macrobiotic myself.  Doubt many things can really be chewed that many times.  But I get into the 100s.

    I have to chew everything into a pulp as I have a genetic swallowing disorder. I can't eat anythin that is dry, like turkey white meat or overcooked beef. I also have to take tiny bites. This post was edited by Element 99 at February 15, 2019 7:56 AM MST
