If you've been trained in good manners, you probably know it's okay to chew with your mouth closed. We will tell you how this is done.

Steps

1. 1 If you're having trouble, try chewing gum. Chew with your back teeth without opening your mouth. Breathe through your nose, not your mouth.
2. 2 Start with small meals. The easiest way to workout is with yogurt, ice cream, and other desserts. Do not put large portions of food in your mouth, chew slowly and with your back teeth.
3. 3 When you learn how to chew soft foods properly, move on to normal foods. Try not to open your mouth.
4. 4 To hone your craft, try solid foods - fruits, bread, rice, and so on. Take small bites.
5. 5 Gradually, you will learn to chew with your mouth closed, even when eating cornflakes, bread, and so on.

Tips

• Be aware that eating with your mouth open will look very ugly. To verify this, stand in front of a mirror.
• You can print this manual and hang it over your desk.
• Praise yourself when you can chew with your mouth closed. Buy yourself something tasty.
• Ask someone to follow you and comment on you.
