Quirky Food Habits

I put a little sugar in the bottom of my cup before pouring in the coffee; cream goes last, so I can judge the proper amount.

When I get Chick-fil-a fries, I get ketchup, buffalo sauce, and Polynesian sauce. I break a fry in half, dip one end of one half in ketchup, and one each of the other half in buffalo and Polynesian sauces. It's yummy.

I eat my pizza with ranch dressing and those yummy red pepper flakes.

Matter of fact, I like those red pepper things on a lot of stuff. I eat hot sauce on a lot of foods, too.

I like my grilled cheese sandwiches with mustard (preferably Kroger's stone-ground with garlic) and hot sauce. No pickles or nothin'; a bit of ham if it's on hand, though.

I don't eat vegetables. Except for corn and a very few others. I'm one of those "super-taster" people; I also can't stand the taste of alcohol. I don't like V8 juice, either.

I'm perfectly happy eating raw meat. I can take it anywhere raw to very well done; I'm not picky, although I prefer medium-rare. Mmmmm-meat.

I like bottled Pepsi and canned Coke. Especially Vanilla Coke.

When I was a kid, I ate mayonnaise sandwiches. They don't sound so appetizing now.

A delicious sandwich is fried ham, egg, ranch dressing, cheddar and Muenster or provalone, mustard, and hot sauce on toasted Pumpernickel.

I, at the ripe old age of 30, still try to separate my foods unless it is something specifically meant to be eaten together. To the extent that at a buffet restaurant, I will use some relatively flavor neutral substance like rice or mashed potatoes to "build" a separator tray on my plate before getting anything else.

I have been accused, by my more Trek-knowledgable friends, of being Romulan. ;)

Even I've done the food separation bit...


And, yes, you are a Rom. Time to check for the pointed ears..... :lol:
 

I eat the crusts off my sandwiches first, because I don't like crust. If I'm eating M&Ms, or any other multicolored candy (or froot loops for that matter) I play little sorting games, eating them so that I don't eat two of the same color in a row and the last ones in my hand are all different colors.

I eat the brown, yellow and orange ones first. Then sort the rest. Eating one color at a time.
 

Sing it with me Canucks!

"When you eat your Smarties, do you eat the Red ones last?"

Oh, wait, you don't... ;)

Actually, I got reminded of one. I put hot sauce in my spaghetti sauce. My preference is Crystal (which I can get now that I live in the South, again!), but sometimes I mix it up with Tabasco instead. I also put it in my scrambled eggs, but I don't think that's particularly weird.
 

When eating Skittles, I prefer eating two at a time, of the same color, if at all possible. It's usually possible right up until the end, when I'll have to eat a yellow with an orange or a red with a purple.

I do the exact opposite. I eat them two or three at a time, but always different color/flavor combinations.
 

When I get a soft taco, I always add sauce then refold the thing into a burrito-esque shape so that nothing falls out...

I don't understand the appeal of ketchup on fries, or why anyone would combine peanut butter and jelly...
 


With M&Ms as a little kid I used to play M&M Wars. You separate them into colors and have them "fight" each other to see which is the strongest color (the last remaining). Two M&Ms fight by squishing them together until one breaks. You eat the loser, of course, and then well, eventually eat the winners. ;)

Galeros, that habit will stop when you get your first case of acid reflux. Trust me on that one. It'd be best to avoid that now and slow down, but I certainly didn't listen to that advice at your age either so I don't expect you to. ;)
