Peter Jackson didn’t even ask him to eat like that, he just started doing it and they were too scared to stop filming.
Dude was just destroying his lunch and Peter Jackson whispered, "shhh... get the camera."
Well, that's my head-canon now
Oddly enough, it's not even that far off from what really happened:

Acting seems kinda hard sometimes. Like it can be hard I guess. Like rehearsing eating in the right rhythm to not fuck-up continuity in shots.
