I have this, i hate it. At work i sit in a cubicle surrounded by other cubicles. As soon as i hear a chip bag opening or the first bite of an apple (or celery, or carrot) I run. The noises make me absolutely insane - i'm clenching my fists, plugging my ears and almost to the point of crying. This is ruining me, when my daughter is eating i stare at her before i leave the room and she just yells at me that its normal (for her to make noises while eating), normal for her not so much for me. Nice to find these threads to know i'm not alone and crazy.
