Do you have a strange eating habit?

I an addicted to Vinegar on popcorn, if you add just the right amount of vinegar and salt your popcorn tastes like salt and vinegar chips (but slightly soggy)

Eating sandwiches, chocolate bars, & other square-like items into actual, even-sized squares that I then eat. I started doing it as a kid & still do for no particular reason. :laugh:

I can't eat sweets without having something salty afterward to cleanse my palate. I don't think that's too strange, though.

^^same and vice versa

I thought of a few more:

When I eat anything small and colored (think M&M's or Skittles) I put them into a pyramid based on color. Then eat one from each row so I always have a pyramid until they are all gone. The ones that don't fit into the pyramid, I don't eat.

I don't eat ketchup on a hamburger, but I love it on fries, although my preference with fries is tarter sauce.

I like edge pieces on casseroles, but not on baked goods. So I cut the edge off of all brownies and cakes before I serve them so it always feels like it's a middle piece.

I refuse to eat cake and ice cream together!

If I have a plate with several items on it, I try a bite from each items, then decide the order in which I will eat them. I eat all of my first choice, and move on in order.

Lastly, I cannot have hot food and a hot drink. So coffee with a warm breakfast is not an option for me. I will eat breakfast, and have coffee later. I can eat a cold meal with a hot drink, or a cold meal with a cold drink.

I eat uncooked chicken nuggets, uncooked shrimps, uncooked bacon and steamed rice with ketchup. Disgusting isn't it?

My mom eats uncooked bacon. Yes, I find that completely freaky. She also eats raw hamburger. BUT---I eat sushi and sashimi and she thinks that's gross, so I guess we all have the potential to gross each other out!

I usually eat all or most of my salad or veg early in the meal. I guess I have always figured that I would save calories if I got too full to finish, but I do now make more of an effort to get the lean protein in. I also have to have salad every day. I eat freaky huge amounts of vegetables.

I generally don't do the "save the best for last" because I am really trying these days not to eat past the point of sateity. The exeption is when I have sushi. I kow I'm not going to have any leftover, so I have to end with whichever one is my favorite. Sometimes that means if I have maki that I end up pulling off the rice and abandoning it for just the yummy filling. Or I just keep eating despite being full.

I love this post...make me feel less weird about my habits!

I'm pretty sure my mom traumatized me with an egg when I was little...hate em, taste, texture, colors...blech! Have never eaten one, regardless of how cooked. I will use them in baking, etc...but even then, it's so gross to get any on my hands when cracking, yuck! I did initiate learning how to scramble an egg for my daughter cause I didn't want to instill this weirdness in her...that was a major step.

I don't eat any white condiments, toppings, or sauces...mayo, ranch, bleu cheese, sour cream, cottage cheese, whip cream, this list goes on an on, and also includes butter and mustard for some weird reason. But I will drown almost anything in ketchup! Yum, can eat that by itself.

I think my condiment issues have also lead me to be a "dry" sandwich eater...no mayo/mustard and it's delicious! But not so much with ketchup, doesn't usually work there.
