What the foo'k

never eat your pizza folded. please start at the tip and work you way to the crust, eating it evenly from the left the the right. then you can eat the crust lengh wise.

all cold drinks in a glass and never a mug unless all dishes are dirty.

condiments are better when spread on bread evenly and completly

onions can be sauteed but not to the point of total limpness

salami-just say no!

cooked spinach-just say no!

mushrooms-

bacon-just say yes! but no other parts of pork

cheese is good on burgers and deli sandwiches, but never on chicken sandwiches

ice tea is best without sugar

the cheese for cheese and crackers must be sliced evenly and not to thick or too thin.

fruit juices as opposed to artificial non-carbonated soft drinks example: hawaiian punch.

* sauteed spinach served with a dash of malt vinegar - oh yes yes YES.

* i think non-carbonated soft drinks in cans are GROSS. it makes me think i'm drinking flat soda...and i HATE flat soda. it's like drinking a broken beverage.

I don't eat till atleast 4pm.
I don't eat anything with a hint of onion.
I don't eat anything if it is not accompanied with salad. (Except fruit)
I prefer liquids over solids if possible. Like if I get hungry, I like to drink something first and see if that helps.
I have a drink with me at all times.

Do u have OCD?

luv4all7 said:

no, i just act like it.

Anx said:

Isn't that the same thing?

once i'm done counting this box of paper clips i'll get back to you on that.

This thread is hilarious because some of it I can identify with...

I do have some weird habits:

- I won't drink soda till at least two or three hours after I've eaten breakfast.
- I don't usually like anything but cereal or toast or some other typical breakfast food for breakfast - no leftovers for me in the morning.
- I only like a few sodas in non-diet, such as root beer. Clear sodas absolutely must be diet, otherwise they taste weird to me.
- If I'm having some kind of sauce (like ketchup or barbecue sauce) with my meat, I have to have at least one bite without the sauce before I start with it.
- If my throat hurts I drink soda because, yes, it helps me for some reason.
- I put nearly no milk in cereal that gets soggy easily because I don't like soggy cereal unless it's incredibly sweet. Strange but true.
- When I eat chocolate, I suck on it instead of chewing it at first.
- Cold pizza is wonderful for lunch unless it's just cheese pizza with no toppings.
- Cream filled cookies...just like a kid, I have to split them apart and eat the cream, then the cookies.
- I have a love-hate relationship with mustard...I like it sort of, but if I don't want it (and I rarely want it) I refuse to eat it.
- For some reason I like to be in the kitchen alone when I'm fixing myself food.
- I'm obsessed with seasonings and if I have one, I have to have more. Pepper alone will not do.

I know there's more, but I'm giving myself a headache thinking of it all.

thats exactly why i hate em

luv4all7 said:

Oh, and I don't drink coffee after I've brushed my teeth/don't brush till after coffee.

Anx said:

or just olive oil. no need to always dump a ton of crud all over our vegetables. why do people do that - to disguise the taste, or what?

luv4all7 said:

Is that you? Gizmo?

PANDURITO said:

Huh?

the only actual rules i've got when it comes to food are these:

-- any bread or bread-type product cannot sit out in the open for more than 10 minutes, otherwise i ain't eating it. if it even appears as stale, forget about me eating it. the only exception i make on this is croutons.

-- i won't drink pop unless i've had a glass of water beforehand.

-- i have to have eaten something before i start up on an art project. if i'm starvin like marvin, i can't concentrate.

-- i gotta take a shower before i eat dinner.

well, the tri-color salads i'm used to are only made up of three different kinds of greens, so it's more about texture than rich taste. ya kinda need some kind of dressing for that. i like a vinagrette because it puts a little something tangy in the salad without completely dominating it.

IrresistibleB1tch said:

i don't eat ketchup too much anymore, either...i usually put honey mustard on my sammiches.

i'm not big on mustard - i don't like it as a condiment - but when i make egg salad sandwiches, i use the yellowest french's mustard i can get. i think it's a nostalgia thing.

Anx said:

try some real mustard sometime - i bet you'd like it!

IrresistibleB1tch said:

What color is REAL mustard?

luv4all7 said:

more beige than that neon yellow they sell you... whole grain mustard is brownish. check it out sometime if you haven't tried it.

IrresistibleB1tch said:

i have tried it - i really don't like mustard on my bocaburgers or my tofu pups. it could be the most gourmet, mustard-snob-approved stuff in the world. i do not like it, sam-i-am!

but in egg salad, not only do i love it, but i love using the cheap stuff in it. i don't think i'd ever dream of using a different kind of mustard in my egg salad recipe, because then it wouldn't taste like what i grew up with, which is one of the main reasons i like making the stuff.

Anx said:

guilty as charged!

IrresistibleB1tch said:

I think I will!

- I absolutely detest mayo and most other creams and salad dressings. Not big on creamy things.

- I eat my food, 99% of the time, in order -- starting with the meats and generally saving my favorite veggie for last.

- I toast bread for my pb&j sandwiches.

- I hate coconut, asparagus and black-eyed peas.

- I like my pancakes with a little burn to 'em.

- I hate hot dogs.

- I'm phasing soda out of my diet -- despite my fascination with Coca-Cola Blak.

- It's all about the ice water.

oop! almost forgot an entirely important rule i have: gotta have hot sauce with my scrambled eggs. same goes for ramen noodles (on the rare occasion i eat 'em, that is).

ThreadBare said:

I eat the main course first and then my favorite side last. If there are potatoes involved in the meal, then I always eat the potatoes last because it's my favorite. If it's like spaghetti with meat in it, I literally pick out the meat.

And as hot dogs go, I won't eat pork ones. I don't like pork. But even if it's a non-pork hot dog, usually the smell makes me feel ill, so...occasionally I really want a hot dog or two but usually it's not something I would go for.
