I used to buy a pack of cashew nuts every day during lunchtime. One day I realized my jaw has started making a clicking sound and the muscle feels kinda loose. That was ten years ago; it's gotten somewhat better and I also learned to avoid that particular motion but never recovered.


Same, I have severe TMJ and there's never really any recovery. Just learn to chew a very specific way to avoid inflaming it. Absolutely miserable


I don't understand, what did the cashews do? They're pretty soft, no?


It's the constant chewing that did me in.


Huh, really? I didn't realise that was a thing, that sucks...
