The elegance coach who runs the @zeeliciousfoods TikTok account has a lot to say on the matter.

She posted a video with some advice others can follow before their next trip to a restaurant.

She says: “An elegant person at the table is mindful of what they do, especially in the company of others.

“Some things are an absolute no-go in public because of how extremely tacky they are.

“Go to the bathroom and take care of your business there… in private.”

The first thing she says to avoid is cleaning your nose with your fingers.

Next, she says to avoid cleaning your ears with your fingers.

She also advises against cleaning your mouth with your tongue at the table.

Also on the tacky list is picking your teeth with your tongue if you have food stuck there.

Gargling your drink at the table is the final mistake she says to avoid.

All in all, any cleaning activities should be saved for a bathroom trip whether it’s the ears, nose, or mouth.
