my sister will eat mashed potatoes and wipe her plate clean before moving on to the salad, and then clean again before eating the chicken. i dont have many quirks but i do notice that if i am eating something mixed like salad or fruit loops or berries i will eat all of the same kind or color before moving on to the next and i always go on a gradient from warm colors to cool colors exceopt with berries because i always eat blueberries first.0

i, too, put chips in sandwiches. i eat pizza til just the crust is left and dunk it in my soda quickly and eat the softened crust. i get addicted to one food for months at a time and i eat it for every meal. recently, it was goulash. once a week i would make a huge stockpot of goulash using 3lbs of hamburger, 2lbs of elbows and eat it all week til i made the next pot. years ago, it was cereal.0

I have spent the majority of my middle school to adult life being picked on and the butt of jokes about my quirks.. I'm fairly certain it is some form of OCD. But.. im no doctor!! But thanks for letting me know im not a total whack job!!!!!
This sounds right. But if it doesn't cripple your life style who cares and the hell with people who think you're weird. And the tomato thing. Totally there!!! and the gristle in meat. Ugggh0 -
Wow, I have found kindred spirits!!! Besides the stuff I already mentioned, after reading all of your posts, I can co-sign with: strings on the bananas, the smell of milk, the consistency of tomatoes, and gristle/fat in meat. Yuck to all of that!!!
As a kid I didn't like for my foods to touch, but I can deal with that now, as long as no food is too wet or runny.
For certain candies, like Skittles, I have always eaten the pieces in groups by color. Ocassionally I'll mix 2 colors together when I'm feeling a little dangerous. Ha ha.
I've never considered my food quirks to be anything but quirks. But like someone else said, it has zero effect on my life, so who cares, right?0 -
Mine stems completely from my OCD... It doesnt hinder my life because i have lived with it for so long, it isnt a big deal anymore!!
I don't even mind being picked on for it.. I think its hilarious!!! :0)0 -
Yeah sounds like a touch of OCD. As long as you can live your life with it I guess don't worry!
I don't really have any issues, guess I'm lucky. Beyond basic safety issues (expiry, holes in boxes/bags) I'm pretty much ok with everything else.0 -
