I thought that was pretty standard for actors depicting a character eating. I remember how Aziz Ansari found it notable that Chris Pratt did not do so on Parks and Recreation:
He always also never uses a spit bucket. When you do scenes where a character is eating, you eat and then spit it out into a “spit bucket.” Chris just keeps eating. If you see Andy eating a cheeseburger in a scene, you should know Chris Pratt ate like 8 cheeseburgers.

Paul Newman notoriously method acted eating boiled eggs in “Cool Hand Luke” to his detriment.
I had to look this up because you made me think he ate all 50 eggs
Apparently he only ate 8, but the rest of the crew ate the remaining 192 eggs which created a gassy day of work.
