Wierd Eating Habbits

[mbaoo]

I like to mix foods together.

From simple things like mashed potatoes and corn. To chicken nuggets with tacos with corn. I like to combo most things I eat.

I always try to eat my food evenly so I end up with one portion of each thing at the end of my meal (i.e. one spoonful of mashed potatoes, one piece of meat, spoonful of corn, and one or two bites of a roll). I don't like it when I run out of one thing and have a bunch of the other stuff left.

I'm a little OCD.

But besides that I'm a fairly normal eater. No weird combinations or anything like that.

Hahaha. I do the exact same thing.

I will eat a lil of eveything till I run out. Like. I hate it when eating a burger with fries when I finish the burger with alot of fries left or finish the fries with a large portion of the burger remaining.

That reminded me...I had a big thing typed out to explain this, but it makes more sense with an example (I do this only with multi-coloured foods that have the same taste and texture).

Suppose I have a box of Smarties. I will pour them all out in front of me and separate them by colour. Once I have separated them, I count how many of each colour I have. Suppose I have 7 red, 5 blue, and 4 brown. I would then eat enough red and blue so that I had the same number of each colour (ie. 4 red, 4 blue, 4 brown). Then I eat them 1 by 1, alternating colours. 1 red, 1 blue, 1 brown, 1 red, 1 blue, 1 brown, and continue this pattern until I'm done.

Along with the thing I do about making sure I eat equal servings of everything till its all gone.

I do this with drinks too. Only in certain cases though. If I have unlimited refills at a restaurant I wont do this. Otherwise, I portion the amout I drink of whatever it is so that once I finish the last bite of food, I have just a little bit of my drink left and finish it off. The drink is always last.

I like salt on granny smith apples.

I like to mix fish sticks, peas, and mashed potatoes together.

I'm a fan of mixing ketchup and mustard together for my corndogs/french fries.

My gf's dad likes to eat mayo on his pb & j sandwiches, shits gross.

Yup, I'm the same way with drinks too.

Hmm.. I like cottage cheese mixed with applesauce

I absolutely hate and will not eat salad dressings or condiments besides lettuce and tomato.

Mayo, ketchup, mustard, ranch, italian.. I don't like any of it.

I eat chicken every day

Guess those aren't really that weird

Also, I've never ordered a hamburger from a restaurant and refuse to do so. Only chicken sandwiches.... and not those shitty processed chicken sandwiches.

I'm one of those that keeps everything separated and eats everything individually...unless it's rice and a stew of some sort. (This is how I was raised) I also don't drink anything until after I have finished eating.

My weird food for ya'll is cut up bananas with mustard on them. Shits good son.

Unless its booze, I don't either. I fear I am going to backwash some food I haven't finished chewing.

I do something similar, I seperate by color and then eat the larger groups first, until I am left with singles, and I usually eat those together.

I also have a tendency to eat things that I like the least first... Like I will eat veggies before the main course, or the side item before the main dish. I do it with everything though. I hoard the good stuff for last. Sometimes its a healthy habit (makes me eat my veggies and fill up on them), sometimes it backfires (sometimes I like the sides more than the main dish). I dont know what that says mentally about me, but I have always done it, even as a kid. At Halloween time I would eat all the crappy stuff first, and saved the good stuff. And I like to do it slower than other people so I have stuff left over when they are done.
