    I eat the edge off all of my burgers and then eat the middle.
    I also do this with bagels, doughnuts, etc. Not that I eat bagels and doughnuts very often anymore!
    but bagels and doughnuts don't have middles? :happy:

    My food CAN NOT under ANY circumstances touch each other. Hubby jokes that there are invisible little dividers in my plate and the food can't cross it.

    i;ve gone as far as separate plates/bowls.

    I've done this too. My mother in law bought some of those old cafeteria lunch trays with the sectioned off areas just for me when I come over to eat.

    I eat my veggies first at dinner - to get them out of the way. I eat pizza crust first so I can enjoy the best, cheesy part until my last bite. I also abandon buns/rolls/bread frequently on sandwiches. I'll have a few bites with the bun, but then I ditch it and eat the sandwich fillings with a fork and knife.

    Ha ha, awesome! Everyone always looks at me weird when I do it. The middle is the best!

    I eat all the toppings off pizza, then cheese, then the sauce, and last eat the crust. I've done this every since I was little. No idea why.

    i don't always do this but i find myself doing it about half the time :)

    plus i have chocolate chips on every bowl of cereal, practically. i love love love dill pickles and have been known to have one as an appetizer to anything i eat, including cereal.

    i scrape the cream off oreos and eat the each half of the cookie once the cream is gone.

    peanut butter on top of ice cream...that's happened.

    ummmmmmm. i'm sure there are more habits/weird combos. but my brain is fried right now.

    i *always* save my yummiest looking french fry (or super yummy covered nacho chip) for last.

    then some *kitten* comes by and says "oh yum! can i have one?" and takes the f00king one i'd been saving.

    My hubby mixes EVERYTHING! I don't mind if mine touches, but really--mixing everything together at every meal??? He made bacon blueberry pancakes.

    I on the other hand will eat fried chicken, but peel off the skin first. I also will eat the hotdog or hamburger out of the bun and throw the bun out. I also eat the topping off pizza and throw out the bottom part of the crust, then the crunchy outer crust I dip in olive oil & parmesan.

    I see a lot of mine up there already but....

    Nothing can touch.
    I cant eat ANYTHING with mustard in it., on it or near it.
    I eat the crust off my sandwiches first.
    I eat around things like burgers and donuts.
    I have to pick the top and edge crust off a pie. its gross to me. But the mooshy crust at the bottom is yummy.

    when i get pizza, i rip off the outter crust and pull off the toppings. i eat the pie crust (not the outter crust) and then i do that for the second peice. THEN i eat the toppings. THEN the dog gets the outter crust.

    Weasley LOVES pizza crust.

    I also eat one thing at a time on my plate, starting with the thing i like least and saving the thing i like most.

    I guess my eating habits arent all that weird, but here are some off the top.

    -I REALLY REALLY REALLY love ketchup. I mean take someone you know who says they like ketchup, and multiply that by 4, thats me. I one time went to a resertaunt and we ordered waffle fries for dessert (best kind of french fries, followed closely by krinkle fries). I told the waitress to bring some ranch (for my gf) and then ketchup for me. I told her whatever amount they bring for someone who says they like a lot of ketchup, and double it. She came out with a thing of ranch for my girlfriend (size youd normally get at a resteraunt) and a BOWL of ketchup for me. Probably about half a cup worth of ketchup. I ate it all, but I made a point to thank the waitress. She told me she was a ketchup lover too, and hated the portion sizes people gave her when she wanted ketchup, so she new exactly what I was talking about
    -I put ketchup on my carrots
    -Note, besides carrots, I only put ketchup on normal things, like fries, burgers, hot dogs, etc.

    I'll pour milk in my cereal and eat the cereal but dump out the milk rather than drink it.

    I do this also! My dog always sits at my feet when I eat cereal because she knows she's getting the milk!

    I'll eat each thing at a time and always the best thing last, which can be stupid because I'll be too full to eat it. :p

    If I have something mixed like tikka or bolognese with pasta, I will eat the rice/pasta first then the chicken/meat last. Always look forward to my little pile of meaty loveliness :D

    And on a slightly different level of strange, if I have jacket potato with cheese I never have it properly - I skin the potatoes (skins go in the compost bin, can't stand them), pile the potato up on the plate and cover them with grated cheese and then eat with my fingers.

    I know, I'm weird!!

    If my meal comes with a dessert, I always end up eating it first.

    And contrary to what mother says, it doesn't spoil my dinner, so HA!

    When I eat a pie, I eat the lid first, then I use a spoon or fork to eat the "meat" out of the middle, like a bowl, and then I eat the bowl :D

    I can't fathom eating it any other way.

    And to the ketchup fan - do you have ketchup on eggs? Yummy!
