Me too. Totally. Save the best for last. Maybe that's partly 'cause I don't usually eat any sort of dessert.

And I'm cool with my foods touching. Some times I'll stir shit together. The only purpose of mashed potatoes is to hold mixed vegetables together on a fork.

And Miguel: I love flat soda.


Anxy, there's some really yummy fizzy real-fruit beverage that I'm trying to remember the name of. . . it'll come to me. . .

I agree with the ones you listed above.. me too!
Also- have to eat my fruit cold and I have texture and smell issues with different foods.
I do not eat tomatoes but I will eat sauce made from tomatoes. I do not like strawberries due to the seeds. I will not eat foods that smell funny- like seafood, yuck- it smells or eggs, eww they smell too...

the vending machines r not supposed to be ur only source of food

izze soda, by chance?

when i was sick a couple of months ago, i had some really weird, random cravings - talk about WEIRD DIETARY RULES - and one day i HAD to have pear soda.

never had pear soda in my life. but i HAD to have some that day.

so i roamed around and found a 4-pack of izze pear soda, and it was freakin' orgasmic. pricey. VERY pricey. but fantabulous.

and i think it's all fruit juice and sparkling water or somesuch. when i have more money in the ol' bank account, i'll buy more...but the izze pear flavor is hard to find in my nabe.

Hmm, I'm not sure what you might consider weird.

I won't fix hamburgers at home anymore. I don't trust ground beef and don't like the greasy mess so make veggie burgers instead (and also veggie chili) BUT I do still buy porterhouse stakes and don't want to eat them if they're any more done than medium rare.

When I go out to eat at my local chinese buffet... I eat my courses out of order, often saving the hot and sour soup until last (as dessert).

I won't eat 'normal' white bread. It needs to be firm, organic looking or the sandwich just isn't appealing.

I hate hot (temp) foods and get extremely annoyed when someone reheats leftovers too much. Alternatively, I really hate being served a meal where the center of things are still cold (like reheated chicken, etc). I guess I'm a picky SOB when it comes to temperature.

Another one, which is just a general eating oddity: I don't care about breakfast or lunch. They can be as lame as you like and I won't complain but if dinner is nasty or unsatisfying then I'll end up pouting all night and keep returning to the kitchen hoping against hope that some snack will be magically waiting there to perk me up. lol

mashed potatoes and corn...

FLAT SODA?????
Day-old Coca-cola out of a plastic 2-liter bottle is divine.

Anx said:

Pear soda! Yum! I've seen that brand, but I haven't tried it, not being a huge fan of carbonated beverages.

There's my greasy food loophole, though, and what I had in mind, which I sometimes have at movie theaters around here, is:


Juice Squeeze!

I like the wild berry flavor best, with mango running a close second, but they're all pretty good. I don't know if they're JUST sparkly water and fruit juice, but I think they mostly are.

Which brings up the excellent point that you could take any fruit juice that you like and mix it with sparkly water and have healthier-than-soda excellence. Pomagranate? Mango? Pineapple? Cranberry?

Of course, none of that shit beats a Mexican Coke.

I actually HATE corn syrup with a passion. it's evil, evil, evil.

madartista said:

Hells. Yes. I would never dream of buying myself a 2-liter bottle of soda now that I live alone, but when I had Matt-the-sodaholic around, I could partake of day-old soda with some regularity. Yummy yum.

I would rather have a cup of boiling hot water than flat soda

but I don't drink much soda anyway

Anx said:

we make our own vinegar at home, w/ red wine... i'll put a splash of that in salad w/ some olive oil, and it's about enough for me.

(going to the states in a couple of months, for 6 weeks... the omaha leg of that trip is going to be tough for food...)

Anx said:

this is like old folks rules!

pizza is OK for breakfast, so is lasagna and I will always drink coke to accompany, even at 7.30am

ZombieKitten said:

yeah I agree!!

susannah said:

my husband won't have a salad to accompany pasta and won't have plain cooked pasta to accompany a steak, even if that's the ONLY thing the kids are guaranteed to eat.

ZombieKitten said:

nah Ill eat anything

susannah said:

I won't eat sea creatures with legs or that come in a shell or asado
but that is ALL of the time, no rules about when and where

ZombieKitten said:

He's clever. He won't mix protein and carbohydrates.

As to the children, you're the mother. YOU teach them how to eat healthily. If you let them choose you're lost forever

HereToRockYourWorld said:

oh my GOD.

it's like i said earlier in this thread - you people are drinking BROKEN BEVERAGES!

it's like saying you pick the nilla wafers out of banana pudding. it's inherently WRONG!!!

ZombieKitten said:

Im not big on seafood, and I dont particularly like bits of meat that arent like breast or steak. for example Im not very good at eating chicken legs! But thats never put in front of me so I dont have to make the choice Ive no rules about when and where!

Anx said:

I am in utter agreement. Flat soda is one of the NASTIEST things on the planet. I've hated it since I was a kid. When I was very little I didn't know how to express that soda had gone flat. So I'd say it was too cold. And my parents would say, but it's supposed to be cold. And I'd say no, but it's cold and cold and COLD. I would get so frustrated when they wouldn't give me a new glass of soda.

CarrieMpls said:

it's syrup! that's what it is! syrup!

though if there are any cooking tips for flat soda, i'd probably try them. i hate wasting the dregs of a 2 liter bottle of pop. of course, i don't think a "diet coke cake" would be very good...

You nutters.

I don't have any dietary rules as such - loads of stuff I like/don't like obviously - but I'm a lot better than when I was a kid. I was such a fussy eater then. I wouldn't touch anything I didn't like the look of.

I still haven't eaten a banana for that reason.

The one rule I can think of is the 'saving the best til last' thing. I love a good roast dinner and I always eat the meat last. There's no set order but you can guarantee that the chart rundown will include Yorkshire Pudding, roast potatoes and whatever meat it is in the top 3 every time.

And I tend to cook things until they're burnt.

And I don't like drinking out of plastic cups either.


I have no dietary rules.

Oh, and I don't mix food either. Yuck!

Anx said:

Syrup

I don't actually love it totally flat. As madartista says, day-old is perfect.

at all the soda drinkers...

what's wrong w/ just plain ol' WATER?

not fizzy enough!
