Eating and drinking sounds are gross

They make me want to vomit. I have no desire to play this game until they are changed.

Do you have misophonia? My sister does... so I know how annoyed people can get when they hear someone eating or drinking...

Don't stop playing this game! It's too good to toss it aside! Why don't you mute your character's voice in the options menu? I think that solves the problem....

Although I can't relate (I'm the opposite; I love those sounds) I can image people to dislike them.
Muting the charter sounds would indeed fix it if I'm not mistaken, although I never tried this.

That was a weird request. Anyway, I imagine people eating in a hurry while always being ready to run or ravenously gobbling up food after prolonged hunger wouldn't care much about etiquette. That's the idea those sounds give me.

Can't say it bothers me.  On the contrary, I find my survivor failing to let out a hearty window-rattling belch after chugging a can of soda to be rather disappointing lol

While the sound of eating bothers me for the most part in the real world, for some reason the sounds in-game don't bother me. I believe the lack of open-mouthed chomping and wet squishy sounds was a good choice by the devs.  Sadly, I cant realistically ask people around me irl to stop chewing with their mouths open, and so much at a time... 

My particular favourites in-game are the tea sipping sounds, cattails, and  the bag of beef jerky being opened along with the box of crackers. The devs did pretty good recording/engineering these.

One problem is the player swallows their painkillers dry.... lol
