Watch your mouth

Some meals are  given planning and preparation and some are just a grab and go. Regardless of how you ended up with what’s on your plate taking a moment and appreciating your choice is important. The best way to appreciate food is to savor it.

Savoring not only gives you an opportunity to enjoy your choice it also allows for slower eating. While taking these moments to savor your meal hone in on the taste textures etc that we can forget about due to other distractions going on.
