As far as we can tell, men grow facial hair for a number of reasons: To hide any imperfections they're secretly self-conscious about, to keep their cheeks warm in winter, to get hit on by hipster girls at craft beer bars. The list goes on. But what about the trials and tribulations that come with eating with said bushy beard? Here's all the stuff you might want to avoid according to Reddit users, our own editors, and one very dedicated writer.
1. Powdered Donuts
Otherwise, expect to find sugar dust everywhere but especially in your mustache.
2. Wings
Whether sauced or dunked in Ranch or blue cheese, the babies will douse your beard and leave you feeling sticky AF.
3. Corn on the Cob
This is already difficult when you're beardless — kernels and butter stick to your chin, cheeks, and upper lip—but adding facial hair to the mix is just insanity.
4. Burgers
Melty cheese, ketchup, mustard, and slippery pickles are just a few of the unsightly things that could make their way into your beard. This applies to any other sandwiches (yes, including hot dogs!) smothered in condiments like mayo. Any oozing means your scruff suffers.
5. Ribs
See "wings" above. They got too much sauce.
6. Ice Cream
Unless you're some sort of super human who can down a cone before it starts to melt at all and can do so without getting any drips past your lips, you're gonna feel sticky and dirty by the end of it.
7. Noodles
Spaghetti, ramen, pad Thai — all will dangle and possible tangle into all that facial hair. Avoid at all costs.
8. Burritos
Think you can dig in and your beard and mustache can go unscathed? Think again. You may even end of biting strands in half in the process. Gross.
