Use of 'slurp' with eating
Hi
Most dictionaries say that slurp can be used both for eating and drinking. BUT the examples only talk about:
slurp one's coffee, slurp one's tea, etc.
I have not seen a single example of
slurp one's food, slurp one's burger, etc.
Could you please tell me if this sentence sounds natural to you?
She sat there slurping her dinner.
Or
She slurped her burger disgustingly.
Thanks,
Tom
