So, can mindful eating be done in hyperspeed?
Hmmm... tasty chihuahua......

I don't know, ~C, it seems as though you are making a categorical error. Everything you mentioned that you are being mindful of does not include the actual process of eating the food. You didn't mention that you actually tasted any of it or that you observed the flavors, smells, textures, the feelings in your jaw, etc. I'm just going to flat out say that you cannot be mindful at eating when you eat in hyperspeed. Besides, it's bad for digestion, and what's the point of finishing your food so quickly… seems like an avoidance response to me. But I could be wrong. I guess the question is, were you fully present, mindfully positioned in the moment during the entire meal?
dude. do i have to explain everything?! i can only explain a few things in a short blog. anyway, just to amuse your “categorical error;”
i love the way the taste of raw fish runs through my tongue and savor their sweetness, uncooked. so you know that salmon and tuna have very different taste especially when uncooked?
i love the texture of breaded shrimp tempura rolls that's why i prefer them over the texture of spiderolls. and besides spider rolls leave a nasty after taste in my mouth.
i love the how the rice fills me up with every bite. that's why i chase them down with hot tea instead of water.
i love how the Wasabi spices up my food, especially when i accidentally put too much and the HOTNESS shoots over my head like a “brain freeze.”
you see, i also notice these things while eating fast. mindful eating is NO BIG DEAL. try mindful breating. like being aware of how your lungs pump up and down and blow in/out air. how your heart pumps the blood while they get oxygen. how billions of molecules perform a cacophonous symphony in a single breath. and it can go on and on and on and on… see? mindful eating is not a big deal. and besides, time is relative.
in short. you maybe always-already-right-Matthew. but you are the one who is making a “categorical error” on this one. brood upon it. i think you could use some Dilberito sushi rolls :P
“i love the how the rice fills…”
That's a categorical grammatical error.
But, I guess you proved me wrong about your mindful hyperspeed eating… so good job. Bravo. But I just want to know why you would want to eat tasty food so quickly. What's the point? Does it taste better when it doesn't last as long? Are you racing against the part of your brain that takes fifteen minutes to recognize that you are full, so you can trick your body into getting more than it otherwise would have?
“But I just want to know why you would want to eat tasty food so quickly.”
i guess it's just a bad habit, and because “i eat alone.” long distance sucks! :(
First off, I just want to let The Man formerly known as Coolmel know that reading the dictionary is one of Matthew's favorite pastimes. So if he mentions a categorical grammatical error, heed thy word.
Also, if one has entered the sushi bar in a mindful state, whether he does anything fast or slow, he would be mindful, would he not?
Also, eating alone is a wonderful practice. And long distance does lick major ass.
Resume.
i now understand why they (you) call you (yourself) the Uberman. it's because you've got very cool beer-goggles :)
P.S. just to further prove that dictionary-reading Matthew did in fact made a categorical error on this one, i have another confession…
~C (for Categorical error in the Roots of Consiousness)it's not only the food and eating that i'm mindful of. that sushi bar is teeming with HOT ASIAN BABES all the time. i swear to Uberman, i swear! because i know the Uberman would understand. in fact, i've written about this more extensively here.
now try that Mr. Categorical Error, sir! try doing mindful eating and checking out HOT ASIAN BABES at the same time! if you can hold both of those beer-goggles and still do stuff mindfully and not choke on your food, then we'll talk. hah! i'm full of sh*t.
…
Speaking of categorical (grammatical) errors, ~C4Chaos said, “…did in fact made a categorical error.”
And don't forget that I qualified my statements with “I could be wrong.”
As for your challenge, ~C, you're on! Just name the place, date, and time! AND I'll do it with chopsticks!! ;-)
you're on! let's see how you can handle Dilberitos with uber-Wasabes!
That sounds HAWT!
yep. they're HAWT alright!
