2They mean different things. "their eating" refers to how they eat. "them eating" refers to the fact that they are eating. – user3169 May 22 '17 at 19:53

If you mean they slurp their soup, burp loudly, talk with their mouths full, and wipe their faces with their sleeves, you can say,
I don't like their table manners.
