    It only bothers me if they're touching each other in inappropriate ways.
    LMFAO!

    I will use different plates or if their is a sauce on something I will put a napkin under that side of the plate so the sauce doesn't get on ANY food its not suppose to be on....I HATE food touching....weird...it all ends up in the same place....OCD maybe a bit here:)

    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 this as well although it has gotten so much better as I've gotten older. It used to be really bad when I was young, my mom used to have to put a knife underneath a certain part of my plate to tilt it so that the juices from whatever meat/vegetable she cooked didn't get into the rice/mashed potatoes or whatever else we were having. I can still also only eat one thing at a time though. I can't start eating one thing and then half way through start on another and then go back, and I always eat my least favorite thing first and save my favorite for last.

    I can handle foods that are similar textures/consistencies touching a little. If I get a little potato on my steak: tasty!

    ... If I the "juice" of some food makes contact with a different food, like steak juices mooshing up a roll or baked bean liquid touches potato salad...

    Casseroles, stews, and other dishes that are premixed are all good, though. ... Unless they're poorly made, of course.

    And even more strangely, I don't mind my food touching, however, I only eat one thing at a time -- whether it has conspired and touched on other food stuffs -- I will only eat one specific food and typically only clockwise on my plate. If I miss a piece of a certain food that I had already eaten and moved onto another food on my plate, I will not go back and grab that last nibble because I've finished with that taste and texture and moved on to something else.

    OMG...LOL sorry, I know people like this they have to use a divider plate and a different fork for each food. I guess I don't mind all the different flavors going on at the same time. Some foods demand it.

    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?

    I had no idea the food mixed in my pancreas thank God you are here to save the stupidest thread you ever read! :flowerforyou:

    ^^^yep. I don't like my foods to touch either. It's all a texture issue for me. I don't care for jello, many puddings or yogurts either. Sometimes an overly ripe banana will put me off. Plus my mother is the same way- I grew up seeing it.

    I can't have my food touch. My family makes fun of me for it because it'll be Thanksgiving or something, and their plates are covered in everything all mushed into one big plate of gross, and I have a couple bites of 2 or 3 options, then finish it, rinse my plate, get a couple bites of 2 or 3 more, repeat till done. I get anxiety over my food touching.

    I think mine comes from when I was really young at the babysitter's house, if we didn't finish our lunch, she would put it on one fork/spoon and shove it in our mouths... I'm talking applesauce mixed with mac and cheese mixed with hot dog and ketchup. :sick: I used to force myself to finish lunch even if I wasn't hungry just so she wouldn't shove that mixture into my mouth. (May be part of the reason I have a binge eating disorder now too - that lady really f***ed me up early in life)

    So I'm eating my egg and one little piece of shredded potato snuck in there. I wanted to spit it out but I'm at work. I've been like this for as long as I can remember, my foods are not allowed to touch each other unless I mix them together. I can't stand the weird taste and the different textures in my mouth at the same time.

    Who else has an aversion to foods touching each other? and why?

    I have been like that since I was a kid too. I am getting a little better. Used to, I would have to eat one thing at a time. I couldn't take a bite of meat, then potatoes. I had to finish one before I started on another. I think my is more of an OCD thing.

    I agree I can't stand my food touching each other either. I have a plate with dividers in it. Have you tried one of those? Also the different textures is what bothers me, yuck!! So people think I'm weird, who cares I'm the one eating it lol. And so people say it's going to the same place, but again it's mixing in my mouth WHERE I TASTE it, yuck again.

    I also don't like my foods to touch. One flavor at a time, please! I also eat all of one food item, and then move on to the next. Normally proteins get eaten first, and the yummy carbs get eaten last.

    If they go together, I don't mind them intermingling. I wouldn't want my toast & jam covered in baked beans, though.

    I mix all my foods. Hot and cold. Different textures.

    If I have salad on my plate of spaghetti...I will mix it...then put it on my bread. Devouring all of it at once is noms!
