What Are Your "Strange" Eating Habits

Oh I'm not a very good adult because I don't do hot drinks - tea, coffee... gross. I have a couple of friends who know me well and won't even try to offer me a hot drink when I go around, one friend even just pulls a can of Pepsi Max out of the fridge on my arrival

Sometimes, to be an adult and fit in at a cafe or something, I -might- order a hot chocolate.. but it has to be a really cold day for that.

People call me strange because I order and eat my dessert before the main coarse meal. I like to enjoy all my dessert first before I get full and my taste buds become desensatized.

I do that too. I always think that the veggies will fill me up so that I won't want the carbs. Ha-fat chance.

On the rare occasions I have buttered toast I eat the crust, peel the buttery top of and save it till I have eaten the dry bottom, then have the juicy bit:happy:

I cannot abide cold eggs, apart from egg mayo, so that has to be eaten first and practically in one, if its slightly too lukewarm it makes me gag and it would ruin my whole meal. I am the same with a cup of tea. It has to be scaldingly hot, I drink it in about 5 mouthfuls and always leave a cm in the bottom of the mug, cos there is a danger that that would cool down too much. I cannot understand some of my friends who can go back to their cuppa half an hour or more later and drink it:sick:

I order a sub, and take it all apart to eat it.
I eat my veggies, meat then bread.

I don't eat sandwiches.

When I make a sandwich and after I have cut it in half...I HAVE to take a bite right away before I take my plate to sit down, not sure if strange or OCD like?

For those who have the 'one food at a time, no food touching' rule, I'm the opposite - I must have at least one mouthful of everything at the same time. :laugh:

I tear the ends off of my hot dog buns, I seperate my candy by color (and normally make a pretty picture) then i eat them by 2's most of the time combining colors red and yellow go great togetether! I love everything almost burnt like popcorn and bread it makes it crisper which is my favorite... O and Texas Garlic toast i eat the inside first (with my fork) and save the crispy edges for last

I prefer to eat beetroot out the jar, rather than on my plate.. When ever i eat pickles, i like to take them off the fork and munch around on the skin till its very smalll , id much rather to eat my cereal out the box rather than in a bowl with milk! I dont do it very often as milk is the only calcium i get nowadays, when ever i have a milkyway chocolate bar i eat all the chocolate off the top, bottom and sides and then the dough bit in the middle i like to scrunch it up in a ball and eat it like that! With the sweets skittles - i seperate the colours, and eat them in order from lightest to dark. With Doritoes crisps - i lick all the flavour off then eat the crisp itself ha!. i prefer my fruit to be chopped up in a bowl rather than whole. I only like chocolate spread out the jar, wen i used to eat bread i couldnt have a chocolate spread sandwich! - there disgusting!! Prefer to get a spoon and eat it out the jar

My food CAN NOT under ANY circumstances touch each other. Hubby jokes that there are invisible little dividers in my plate and the food can't cross it.

i;ve gone as far as separate plates/bowls.

I've done this too. My mother in law bought some of those old cafeteria lunch trays with the sectioned off areas just for me when I come over to eat.

i eat out of divided plates too and if they arent available then its time to break out the multiple bowls!

I do this too.. I only drink Iced coffee but my water has to be room temputure.

I eat one thing at a time, usually in a clockwise motion around the plate. I don't mind if it touches another food slightly, but I definitely finish one item before I move on to another one. I will not put two foods in the same bite on my fork/spoon.
I have to have the same number of bites on each side of my mouth, and I will count in my head and make sure the number of chews is an even number. Bites also must be the same size throughout the meal.
I cannot stand the sight/smell/taste of bloody meat. If I order a steak or a burger, it has to be well done on the verge of burnt before I will consider eating it. And yes, I will cut it in half as soon as it comes to me to make sure there is no pink in the middle.
If I eat eggs, they also have to be completely cooked, nothing runny.
I LOVE burnt popcorn. The more buttery, the better.
When eating a round food on a plate, I cut around the food clockwise and eat the edges first, then continue in a clockwise motion eating toward the middle. I don't do this with non-plated foods, like burgers or doughnuts.
Bananas cannot be green or yellow. I like them brown, almost rotten.
I don't like tomato slices on sandwiches, but will pull them off and eat them separately before eating the sandwich.
I eat multicolored candy by color, in order of preference, saving the best for last.
When eating Reese's peanut butter cups, I will nibble the ripple edges of the chocolate off, then peel off the rest of the chocolate and eat it, then eat the peanut butter center. Sometimes I'll save the pb centers and roll them all together in a ball to eat after first eating all the chocolate. There's no wrong way to eat a Reese's, right?

Don't eat breakfast but eat late night, until I lay my head on the pillow to sleep. I eat lite all day because I know I will eat at night. Always have. Just make better choices now.

Whenever I eat chips, or flavored crackers.. anything like that.. I always lick the flavor off first.. then I eat the chip/cracker. My BF thinks I'm nuts LOL

Me Too (and if noone is around, i thrw away the chip)
on the rare occasion i eat a chiocolate bar like a kit kat or an oh henry, i eat all the layers individually.

i eat the contents of a burrito then i eat the actual tortilla last.
