Donald Trump relentlessly mocked Ohio Gov. John Kasich's campaign-trail eating habits on Monday.
During a rally in Rhode Island, the Republican presidential frontrunner said that the Ohio governor should learn from Trump's children, whom Trump has urged to eat modest portions of food.
"Did you see him? He has a news conference all the time when he's eating. I have never seen a human being eat in such a disgusting fashion," Trump said of Kasich.
He continued: "I'd say, 'Children, small, little bites.' This guy takes a pancake and he's shoving it in his mouth. It's disgusting. Do you want this guy for your president?"
Trump's critical view of Kasich's eating comes less than a day after the governor announced an alliance with Sen. Ted Cruz to consolidate anti-Trump voters in the remaining primary states. Kasich canceled campaign events in Indiana, where public polling shows that Cruz could take home a portion of the delegates, while Cruz has promised not to seriously campaign in Oregon and New Mexico.
After a brief detour in which he criticized Kasich's support for the North American Free Trade Agreement in the 1990s, Trump returned to insulting Kasich's eating habits.
"I've never seen a guy eat like this," Trump said.
Kasich has recently made headlines for his healthy appetite at campaign stops, scheduling press availabilities during appearances at delis and diners. On Monday, he discussed his anti-Trump alliance with Cruz during a campaign stop at a Philadelphia diner.

Projection.
LOL!
What class.
Why is Kasich still running?!?
Etiquette must apply... imagine what candidate would represent the United States at a formal dinner with our allies.
Kasich could challenge my German Shepherd to an eating contest.
I hear Trump and Kasich are going to fight at recess tomorrow!
My parents taught us to be very proper, also. No elbows on the table. Napkin on your lap. Passing not grabbing. It was the way things were done back then. And we were the average family around town.
Seen it?He’s lived it!
Funny everyone is in a strong marriage. Trump is our Reagan. Remember Reagan cheated on Jane with nancy.
No it’s not, it’s funny. Trump cracks me up like no other.
Does anybody remember Trump at a diner a few weeks ago right before Wisconsin primary? He had his breakfast in front of him and he let it go cold because he had the press in there filming him. He didn't start eating until the cameras turned off - if he even ate that meal at all.
Not really....manners still count. And it’s really annoying to see people “pig” food down.
In Iowa, Trump had one of those meat on a stick handed to him, or corn dog. He took one small bite and pitched it. lol. All the rest of these politician eat like it’s no tomorrow. Hillary is the worst, hot dogs... corn etc. Since Iowa I’ve never seen Trump stuffing food in his mouth.
The guy dressed impeccably every day.

- Kasich supports Obama’s nominee for the Supreme Court. http://www.cbsnews.com/news/john-kasich-id-consider-nominating-merrick-garland-supreme-court-election-2016/
All that, and the worst Trump will say about Kasich is that he has bad table manners? Even if it’s true, I find that sad.
The ones with the chainsaw were hilarious.
Those were the days. I frequently see what I call the trifecta of bad table manners: Bringing out the cellphone at the table, talking into cell phone with food in mouth, and wearing hat while eating (hat is usually a one size fits all worn backwards). If it were legal, these slobs would also smoke cigarettes at the dinner table. They should be horse whipped!
My daughter still eats nicely and so do my grandchildren....but my son in law eats like Kasich.
