10 minutes if it's minimal solid food witha smoothie.

20 to 30 mins if i have to shove pasta or rice, or whatever down my face as fast as i can even though i'm full

It's important to eat slowly, breath properly and get your food chewed to the point where it is kind of a liquid

i have a bad habbit of eating fast no matter what it is. I could finish a chicken/pasta meal in 5-10 minutes easily
 
i try to catch myself and chew longer but i still eat pretty fast

Depends, regular meals like chicken/rice take me like 5-10 minutes. But if its oatmeal and eggs, that takes me like 20 minutes. Good thing I only eat that for breakfast.

i would think chicken and rice would take longer.

all of my friends at lunch say i take forever to eat but i eat at a pretty normal speed i would say. i mean i dont sit there chewing until it's like water in my mouth

300 grams pasta with 2 tins tuna and 1 tin of sweetcorn and half a sliced up cucumber i can eat in about 3-5 minutes, but pastas hard to get down, when im eating chicken in gravy with vegges and healthy carbs i can get that stuff down in 2, i dont like waiting around...I dont even feel like im eating fast...Chicken is like 5 bites, if that, vegetables can be eaten in like 30 seconds unless theyre tiny little smushy things, i however steam big portions of brocolli/cauli/carrot etc so i can get it down fast and carbs i usually have mash potato or something...which all goes down seriously easy lol.
Thats right guys, sugars in fruits are bad, they are simple sugars which will make you FAT, I mean we all know monkeys eat mainly fruit and look! THEYRE VERY FAT!
