Learn to be proud and unique. Your differences make you special. If we were all the same, we'd be a boring lot.

People respond to confidence.
 
First of all don't let your friends judge you on the way you eat!! I bet they chewed with their mouth open some point of their life too! ( but don't say anything stupid to them and start an argument.) But here's some easy trick that I do when i'm with my friends eating.
1. if your friend wants to talk to you hold you hand up to them and point to your mouth and talk to them when your finished.

2. If it's something you really wanna talk about then cover your mouth and speak then it's not rude!

Please remember to keep these tips, it's good manners and you'll feel confident!
 
I have the same problem ...

I eat like a pig lol
sometimes it's embarrassing (x (for me AND my friends)

But I don't care and so you should do ...
 
If your friends are real friends, they won't judge you about the way you eat. If you need to talk while you're chewing, (this is what I do) put your hand over your mouth, then talk. It's much better. I have a few friends that don't like to eat in front of people either, but I tell them: "You're going to starve yourself, eat something!" It's really not as bad as you think. Don't not eat because you're worried what other people think. At least try to keep you're mouth closed though, and maybe they'll forget about it. :)
 
I understand that as i don't like eating in public and it's annoy because people think you're not eating. But it's something you've got to get used to.

When you eat, close your mouth, when you take a bite have your free hand underneath in case some food falls. If you have to talk with your mouth full put your hand over your mouth. Practice little things like that and you'll become accustomed to it.

You shouldn't feel embarrassed. At least you're aware of what is mannerly whilst eating. I know some nasty people who always talk with food in their mouth and spit everywhere and wipe their hands on their clothes and don't care. So don't let it bother you.

Take care.
 
chew with your mouth closed and you shouldn't care so much what they think. If they would not be friends with you just because of that then you shouldn't be friends with them
