A Mid-Meal Pick

Do you believe that one can stop mid-meal and apply a toothpick to one’s teeth without being rude?

If a stubborn piece of food is lodged there, interfering and distracting the eater such that they are constantly trying to dislodge it with their tongue, does this justify using the mid-meal toothpick?

Do you believe that all use of a toothpick ought to wait until the end of the meal? Out of the sight of other people?
