Your weird food eating habits
Replies

I think pudding tastes better when you eat it with a plastic spoon versus metal.0
-
I don't really care if my food touches, but I don't like to eat more than one food at a time. So i end up eating one thing, turn the plate, repeat.
I cut a piece of meat, then eat it. Before I eat any more of it, I cut up the rest of it completely.
I don't like using plastic silverware.0 -
I eat the stuff I like less and then leave the best part on my plate for last.0
-
I pick up plain baked potatoes and eat them like apples0
-
I absolutely ADORE cheese, but I will not eat the end bits or edges of a block.
Blech...!0 -
wow are there some strange things going on here
Hate celery and can spot the tiniest morsel in any dish and cannot then eat anything on that plate
Bless you!!!0 -
WOW!!!!!
I love this place, I feel so normal! LoL
I don’t think I have to many odd or weird things;
- Chocolate must be COLD, dark chocolate right out of the fridge not warm.
- I hate mustard… It should be outlawed! LoL The smell of yellow mustard is just repulsive to me, honey mustard is tolerable.
- No celery, no way, no how, no form, it’s one of the few things that I refuse to eat.
- Raw onions, I simply can’t eat them but cooked is ok.
- I hate mint…
- No green bell peppers, the taste is to strong and they tend to upset my stomach.
- I’ve never been able to eat raw fruits and veggies but I’m getting much better at it.
- No coffee, hate the taste and the smell.
- I have no issue with my foods touching.
- Leftovers are usually better tasting than the original serving.
- I prefer my foods COLD when applicable.0 -
I enjoy eating most things cold.
I won't eat anything that's been leftover for more than a day.
Because I am the single mother of a small/mobile child, I can eat a heaping plate of food in just minutes. Hence why it's better for me cold. If it's hot, I don't have time to wait for it to cool off. I'm just shovelling it in while I can.0 -
I put sugar in my sausage gravy-like biscuits and gravy . I gross out anyone that sees me do it-i'm not talking about a little sugar either. I put a lot of sugar on it - every bite needs to be sweet0
-
Chocolate has to be room temperature I won't eat it cold from the fridge. Bleurgh!!
Grapefruit is the devil sporn.
I'll eat peppers if they are chopped up, big chunks make me heave.
I hate biting granules of sugar, so don't have sugar on cereal.
I won't eat with a fork that has bent tines
Always eat green sweets first
Hate drinking out of cans0 -
Who has time to even think about stupid **** like this. Just eat your fricken food people!Ice cream must be Just out of the freezer.
Water - at a restaurant - must have a slice of lemon with it - otherwise i bug the waiter/waitress until they remember
french fries are not worthy unless they are perfect - in my mind - crispy on the outside - soft on the inside
Any chocolate - must be cold - otherwise it goes in the fridge or freezer - until later
I ALWAYS ask for lemon at restuarants (for both the water and the Diet Coke) - and I tip better if the waitress just brings a small dish of lemons. This way, when I get a refill on my water, I have a fresh lemon slice, too!
Eww, soggy french fries (chips) are horrid. If I pick it up, and it bends, I don't want it. But on the other hand, if I bite into it, and there is no potato inside, it is TOO crispy! I often dip my fries into Ranch dressing, too.
And chocolate, MUST be cold. Not frozen - that hurts my teeth. But a Milky Way or Rolo or 3 Musketeers MUST be cold. MMs can be room temp, but that's about it.
- I always use a Dinner Fork (big guy with 4 tines) for every meal. Salad forks are for dessert.
- I only use a Table Spoon / Soup Spoon for cereal or soup. The bigger the spoon, the easier I can shovel cereal into my face before it gets soggy! Ironically, when I eat soup with a big spoon, I still only fill the spoon maybe 1/4 full, so I feel dainty.
- I cut up my meat in the kitchen before putting on my plate. It's easier to eat that way.
- I put my side dishes (noodles, potatoes, etc) in a separate small bowl that sits on my plate so that my protein and side do not touch (no steak juice running into my macaroni & cheese..... eww)
- I eat the big flat chips first.
- I like to eat a "No Salad Salad" when I get my Fat Girl cravings.... It's croutons, bacon bits, shredded cheese and dressing. Usually bleu cheese dressing.
- I love the feel of sugar on my cereal, so I put granulated sugar on ALL my cereals (even something as evil as Frosted Flakes)!
- I always drink with a straw. All beverages must be icy cold. (I bring a container of ice with me to work every day and keep in the work fridge. 2 trays of ice will last me most of the day). I cannot stand room temp beverages.0 -
Some interesting folks here. Nothing too crazy here.
I prefer using a big spoon for eating soup
chocolate must be refrigerated or frozen. I can't stand when it gets melty anywhere but in my mouth
I'm very particular about the container my beer comes in. I'll take in this order of availability - bottle, pint glass and last and very much least, aluminum.0 -
I love to eat peanut butter with a spoon!
If I am alone I will eat my salad with my hands shh
I have to clean after my cooking before I eat.. I can't enjoy my food in a messy kitchen.
I drink coffee about three times a day!
I love the taste of pickles ketchup and mustard in burgers.
I eat ketchup with my eggs .
I refuse to eat any cheese with a smell( it's nasty to me)
Refuse to eat any organ meats ( liver kidney heart etc)
If I could, I would binge on snack cakes and rice crispy squares!0 -
Oh yeah, I hate milk! If there is milk in my coffee I will throw it out! So gross!!0
-
I eat one thing at a time from my plate, starting with what I like the least and ending with what I like most.
I love cream of mushroom soup in a casserole, but cannot eat it as soup.
I cannot stand the feel of oatmeal in my mouth. Same with soggy cereal or crackers in my soup or chili.
I don't like mini marshmallows because they squeak on my teeth.
I eat M&Ms in layers. Shell, chocolate, peanut/almond. I don't eat the plain ones.0 -
I'm not a big egg fan, when I do eat them, they have to be completely cooked hard, no soft or running anything
I don't like raw onion, but I loved them cooked
I hate cooked bell pepper but will eat them raw
I don't eat organ meat, it just grosses me out.
sushi is to be eaten with chops sticks or with your fingers NOT a fork!
I wont eat sweet pickles/relish, sweet mustard, sweet butter
I will only eat oatmeal if its thick, it grosses me out when its running or soup like
I have to have lemon on my seafood (fish, shrimp, etc...) doesn't matter how its cooked, it needs lemon.
I always eat the half popped kernels of popcorn
I like blue cheese but HATE blue cheese dressing
all red meat has to be cooked medium-well/well-done (no blood or hot pink or anything that may seem raw) or I wont eat it
When I first go to a new restaurant, I will try out many different dishes til I find my favs, then from then on that's the only thing I will ever order
I could keep listing, but that mine go on forever0 -
I always eat bananas with a spoon by removing one section of peel and using the rest as a bowl.
I also eat continental style (knife in right hand, fork in left throughout entire meal) and that comes off as strange to people that aren't used to it.
Nice0 -
I like most of my veggies without any dressing or seasoning. And usually burnt.0
-
I like eating lettuce plain. Or, if it's in a salad with dressings or other things, I prefer the lettuce to be warm. Now that I type it out, it sounds even stranger.0

I never even thought of eating sushi with a fork. It seems so weird and I've never seen it done
Totally agree with the oatmeal! My dad used to make it when I was a kid and I eventually realized I hated it because it was all bland, cold and soppy from the milk he added after it was cooked. Definitely nicer with no milk and generous amount of brown sugar on top
I am the same with restaurants. I've had every single Thai dish and now will only ever order Pad Thai lol0 -
when i eat chips i look for the little pieces that have potato skin on one side and save them for last. still have no idea why i do it but i do0
-
im thinking about my sister's habits:
when eating a cool ranch dorito, she inspects both sides of the chip, the and side with more ranch goes on her tongue.
she hates soggy cereal- so she pours the milk first, and only a small amount, so only the bottom of the bowl is in danger of sogginess ;-)
Haha! I'm just like your sister on both of those - but I take the cereal thing to the next extreme. I'll pour a cup of milk and a cup of cereal. I'll add a spoonfull or two of cereal to the milk and eat it before it even remotely has the chance of getting soggy. Repeat until all of the cereal is gone.
My other weird 'quirk' - I hate vinegar. Hate, hate, hate it! I'll eat my salads dry before putting vinaigrette on top. I don't like most condiments for this reason. Mayo is just gross!!
Oh, and lemon on fish? NEVER!! It masks the flavor!!0 -
Does anyone on here have an eating habit that they do for dieting/ maintaining ideal weight reasons?
e.g. grapefruits for breakfast to lose weight or eating eggs for lunch and dinner.
You know how you hear about alternative ways celebrities use to lose weight or keep shape but i've never heard of anyone doing any of these things in real life. I'm doing some research into it and it'd be really good to hear if anyone on here has any stories!
Thanks,
Jess0 -
I will either eat my food on my plate one at a time or I will mix it all together.
When I eat chicken wings I prefer the long thin ones.
I like my food to be so spicy and hot that it hurts to eat.0 -
Unless I'm at the gym chugging on my water bottle, I cannot drink my water unless it's in a glass and with a straw!!0
-
While I don't particularly care for vegetables, I can't STAND chunky vegetables in anything. Ick. I like my veggies to be diced. Yeah, I know it's weird, but I think it's because then I don't have to have a HUGE nasty flavor in my mouth. (I do like stir-fried broccoli and broiled asparagus though.)0
