    It's "crazy" until someone's chocolate pudding and orange juice touch.

    It doesn't matter that they mix in the stomach, it's annoying when things that don't go together mix on your taste buds.

    Some people like to enjoy their foods.

    Oh, that last picture makes me feel bad!

    But I am really picky, I need things to stay separate. There are exceptions, but I generally eat everything super plain, not touching. I haven't had pizza, hamburger, hotdogs or really any sandwiches as I don't like bread and meat in one bite (although I will eat fried chicken and fried fish which I guess is similar).

    I don't eat a lot of fruit, but I only eat it plain/alone ... no apple pie, yogurt or smoothies.

    THIS is the problem for those of us who don't like our food to touch! It is ok if it mixes AFTER it vacates my taste buds. :ohwell:

    Orange and chocolate don't mix? Someone better tell these people...

    I'm the complete opposite. I just pile all of my food on my plate and eat it. When I take a bite I try to get a little of each on the fork.

    *SNORT*

    I was going to add that I don't like my food to touch much, and definitely not mix (although I'd dip one food into another...like meat into mashed potatoes)....but my thing is that I have to cut EVERYTHING into bite-sized pieces before I start actually eating. All the meat, the broccoli, etc. Once everything is cut, I will salt, sauce or whatever, and only THEN will I actually take a bite.

    I'm the same way....and I also turn my plate so what ever I'm eating is right in front of me....



    I do the same thing usually clockwise. Some thing are ok to touch. I also have texture issues.

    Hahaha the most stupid thread I ever read LOL... Whatever you put in your moth separated its gonna be mixed in your pancreas, get over and worry about other things that are important than food touching, probably seek some therapy regarding this?

    Orange and chocolate mix fine (I don't like it, but lots do). But something happens when orange juice and chocolate pudding mix that tastes like Death is personally sharpening his scythe on your tongue like a leather strop.

    Perhaps, or perhaps it depends on the ratio. 2 drops of OJ in a cup of chocolate pudding should not ruin it, equal parts though, I can see how that could put a damper on your pudding eating enjoyment.

    Honestly, I understand that people have their preferences, I'm just poking fun. My wife won't eat anything with a sauce on it, yet if you give her the sauce on the side, she will dip the hell out of it. I can also see if it's at an extreme (say, brussels sprouts covered with cheesecake), but other than that, I just can't imagine having an issue with it myself. Again, that's just ME.

    sometimes you're supposed to mix your food. to get the full flavor of the dish you have to take a little bit of each thing and taste it all together. what to do then? do you just not enjoy your meal to its fullest potential?

    personally i mix it all up. especially thanksgiving. yummy. :)

    I'm not crazy about my foods touching either, but my weird habit is that I only eat one food item at a time. All my veggies, all my meats. I don't skip back and forth between food. My parents still laugh at me about it to this day. LOL

    Oh wait... I still eat it. I'm just less happy about it. I'm pretty sure I would never throw away food unless it would literally make me sick.. like if its expired but thats it.

    I HAVE TO SHOW MY BOYFRIEND THIS THREAD.

    I can't stand my food touching unless I actively choose to mix them! My mum is the same so I think it's just learned behaviour!

    YES! My boyfriend thinks I am mental, but he has learned to separate things eg. not put my beans ON my toast. I also have to add my gravy a little a time so I can control the sogginess factor.
