To chew, or to (literally) move the jaw up and down in a chewing motion.
It can easily be mistaken for masturbate. A very good word to play around with, it is; so much that I played around with a newspaper teacher's mind by using it in a piece of writing.

You like to masticate meat.

This is also a pun on the word masturbate, which makes it a great conversation starter.
