People I understand. It's hard not to make noise. But ads. Why decided ads needed all sorts of slurping and chewing sounds?

Also, I realize it's marketed at children, but does Minecraft have to sound more like Peppa Pig with every update?
People taking with their mouths full in movies really annoys me. Firstly it's disgusting, and secondly the sound mixing is usually terrible anyway, so I can't hear a word they're saying either. I can see the scene is set at dinner from the food on the table. I don't need to see and hear the dinner as it sloshes about in the protagonist's mouth.
It seems like actors play up the "look I'm eating" aspect by open mouth chewing.
