When it comes to tucking into grub, some can be more forgiving than others. Seriously, when have you ever eaten soup and looked cool?
Too many times have we been caught out eating food that’s messy, sticky and manages to get all over the place.
From getting ice cream on your clothes to getting sauce on your fingers – Here are nine of the most unflattering foods to eat in public:
1. Plums
There’s no way to bite into this fruit without dribbling on yourself somehow. We’re considering abandoning them for apples.
2. Spaghetti
The spaghetti strands manage to whip off your face, and suddenly there’s red sauce everywhere. If we had a euro for everytime tomato sauce made its way onto our clothing, we’d be millionaires.

3. Barbeque Spare Ribs
Gets all over your fingers and quite frequently, on your face – definitely not something you’d want to eat on a date! If there’s a cleaner way to eat these, please let us know…
4. Soup
Slurp, slurp, slurp. Need we say more?

5. Ice Cream
The ice cream melts down your fingers while you desperately try clear it up. What’s worse is trying to eat the cone and desperately licking the bits of ice cream left in it!
6. Crème Eggs
We all eat our eggs differently but we’re still yet to find an attractive way at gobbling it down.
7. Chicken Wings/Legs
In three simple words: A big mess. Thankfully someone has come up with the solution for this one!

8. Oysters
Sucking out oysters is never pretty. Combined with the slurping noise, this instantly spells disaster.
9. Wraps/Burritos
No matter how hard you try, somehow the filling always manages to topple out the bottom.
