It’s never pleasant to stand in a crowded subway train. To make it worse, there’s often someone next to you eating loudly.
Eating and drinking is not rare(罕见的) among Chinese passengers. They may do this to save time, but the smell and noise annoys（打扰） others.

Many people support the rule because they care for public manners in the city. Besides, eating and drinking on the subway is not healthy for both the eaters and the people around.
But others say that sometimes eating and drinking should be OK..
“If a little child is eating on the subway, how can you fine him 500 yuan?” said Jin Bo, a news commentator.

“Eating [in public] is not only about ourselves. It annoys others. We should keep this in mind from a young age.”
