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...
