SKL Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I still eat one thing at a time until it is gone (on my plate), and I start with my least favorite & save the best for last. I still find it very difficult to not "clear my plate." I still love boxed mac'n'cheese, but I eat a more healthy version of it. I only put ketchup on it if it's reheated. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LucyStoner Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I abhor milk and most dairy products. I'd seriously pay not to have to eat a single bite of yogurt or cottage cheese. The only hypothetical situation in which I can see myself eating yogurt without hesitation is if somehow eating yogurt would immediately save someone's life. Given I am unlikely to ever run into a psychotic gunman who will spare a life if I eat yogurt, I probably will never ever eat any yogurt. I've hated most dairy products my entire life. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3 ladybugs Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I don't eat blue things. This is not blue berries but things artificially blue. Freaked me out when they said I had a blue cancer, then they said they call it that because of how it reacted to a certain dye. 😄😄 I still peel pepperidge farms turnovers. Though admittedly this one has bit me in the butt since ODS takes ALL of his food apart to eat it. I can't eat if I am too tired. Though I seemed to have passed this on to both of my children. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate it when I'm in a nice restaurant and have to eat them separate to avoid looking too weird. Well for example a yummy veggie sandwich (I'm vegetarian and eat a lot of these) would consist of pickles, mayo, lettuce and tomato. So said sandwich would come to the table and everything would need to come off of it and then a good portion of the mayo scraped off because they have a tendency to put way too much, and then evenly distributed because they put it all in the middle of the sandwich usually. Then put the things that would taste awesome next to each other. In this case it would be top bun, mayo, tomato, a sprinkling of salt and pepper, pickles, lettuce and then bottom bun. Of course the tomatoes and pickles would need to be layered in a fashion that evenly distributes them throughout each bite and the lettuce would need to be trimmed of the hard white parts. I thought I was the only one that liked corn and mashed potatoes together! :) I can't think of an occasion in which I was unable to mix the two...but I really haven't been to that many fancy restaurants before. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 This is not meant to offend anyone, but my parents thought that vegetarianism was a "quirk" that could be corrected with rewards and punishments. Nope, not even 42 years worth. :P I've seen my "bad behaviour" become the newest fad, an oldy-moldy-goldy fad, and ultimately return to its status as a "bad behaviour" that my WAP friends try to correct with rewards and punishments. I'm almost old enough to use the same logic my father uses to get me to leave him alone about his iPad (because he has wanted one ever since he first saw it on 2001: a Space Odyssey in the 1960s) and his Colonel McTrashburgers (because they didn't have them when he was a kid and you can't stop progress) if anyone gives me crap about not giving a flying flip about raw milk and grass fed beef. :P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I still like Spagettios with Meatballs. Not the disgusting cheesy Spagettios, only the meatball kind. I still don't like most cooked veggies (esp not "mixed vegetables," or peas and carrots), but I do like roasted vegs and salad stuff. My mom thinks I don't like any veg, but really, it's just not the canned crap or boiled to death stuff I was served as a child. I still won't eat Jello. The texture is sooo gross in my mouth. You can't chew it, you can't just swallow it, blech. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TechWife Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I, too, dip fries into my Wendy's frosty. It's just delicious!

Tap Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Creamed corn eaten on top of mashed potatoes (like gravy). Tuna fish, chips and Oreos, with a cola. I very rarely eat tuna if I don't have the other three to go with it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmandaVT Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I won't go near mixed vegetables after having them inflicted upon me for much of my youth. Hated them then and still hate them now. I won't eat lima beans because of their childhood use as an ice pack (in the bag) for bumps and bruises. When we were kids, my brother and I had two beverage options: milk or water. I never liked the taste of milk, so I always chose water. Even now, it's pretty much all I drink. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksr5377 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 When eating a sandwich I eat all of the crust first. That way I'm left with a perfect, crust-less sandwich.

snickerplum Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I don't do condiments. At all. When Krispy Kreme glazed doughnuts are no longer "hot now" at home I microwave them with butter on top. I know, not healthy. But tasty? Yes, ma'am. I don't eat both ends of chicken strips. I can't eat sandwiches made with soft bread. It needs to be toasted or grilled. If I share a bite with Dh, the spoon or fork can't have any food leftover on it (ie-smear of frosting) or I'll need a new one. Bleh. I have many more, but you'll think I'm weird. :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annie G Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 I don't eat the tapered, crunchy ends of french fries. So when I'm done eating, there is a little pile of ends of fries on my plate. I like nuts but not in things. Not in ice cream, brownies, or candy, or anything else. I do not want my foods to touch. I'm fine with a big salad all mixed together, but don't let my meatloaf touch my peas.

I also eat corn in my mashed potatoes, it's even better with stuffing and turkey/chicken on a yeast roll..... I still like spaghetti sauce on eggs the only way I'll eat a bologna sandwich is with Lays potato chips smashed up in it. I still hate vegetables that come from a can (the only way my mom knew how to "cook" them :ack2: ) I pour milk on my ice cream, it makes "ice crunchies" Fluffernutters are not just for children from Maine Peanut M&M's must be cracked open, then eat 1/2 of the candy shell, followed by eating the peanut, and finish with the other 1/2 of the shell. All of this after testing out the "won't melt in your hand" promise (I don't really do the last any more, I disproved it when I was 10). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
