Q&A for How to Eat Fast

You won't have to do anything if you're dead, my friend. If you choke, dial 911 and get someone to give you the Heimlich maneuver.

Just eat the way you eat. If someone teases you, ignore them. You don't need to change yourself to suit other people.

Soups are an obvious choice. They can be kept warm in a good thermos. Peanut butter sandwiches are a simple and protein-packed choice. Half an hour is more than enough time to eat a decent meal without having to wolf it down.

Try to eat a small lunch that will also fill you up. Perhaps you could put it together in advance the morning or evening before.

Just ignore them or tell them to stop rushing you. Also, you can move away from those people.

There is no "normal" pace. Everyone eats at different speeds. Just work on eating the way you do. Your parents are completely wrong - being a slow eater is actually healthier. You're slimmer and have better digestion. Don't change because your parents think you should! In fact, it's safer to stay the way you are. But if you're really looking to change it, follow the steps in this article! They should assist you.

If you are choking and water isn't helping, the Heimlich maneuver is generally the most effective method. If you are alone, you can try to dislodge the food by thrusting yourself against a hard surface, like a chair. For severe or persistent choking, call emergency services immediately.
