Why do waiters/waitresses always wait until you have a full mouth of food before asking a question?

Do they just find it funny to watch someone try to chew really quickly to answer? Or for someone to give them a mouthfilled nod?

    Because they don't want a lengthy conversation, just a decision, a nod of the head, a point of the finger at the dessert menu, or the food sucks and you the need the Heimlich Manuever, etc.

    Kind of like when the Dentist gets chatty when he's got his fingers in your mouth.

    They're really not interested in what you have to say.
