We all have our quirky habits... and there's no exception when it comes to how and what we eat. Some people are picky eaters and some are just quirky altogether - no matter what the reason I love hearing about other peoples' weird food habits.
I'll start with some of mine:
- I freeze my gummy candy before eating
- I pick the dough out of my bread (I credit my mom for this one)
- I like to wrap a banana with sliced American cheese as a snack - sounds gross but Mr. Rogers taught me this!
- I eat the broth part of a soup first then the 'chunks'
- Potato chips inside a sandwich or bagel & cream cheese
What are some of your quirky, strange or weird food habits? From not letting your food touch to taking a sip of water after each bite... I want to hear them all!
Does sitting on the table, not at the table, for dinner count?
ReplyDeleteNice post!!
PJJ
Sure! Anything goes here at ahueats!
DeleteChips inside a sandwich is a common one with me. Doesn't everyone do that?
ReplyDelete1. Bread with chocolate
2. Bread with ice cream
3. Bread with anything
Haha! Do you eat your bread with bread?
DeleteI grew up eating banana and mayonaise sandwiches. Even though I think it's gross now, every now and then I crave one. Also, I like to freeze Reese's Cups before eating them.
ReplyDeleteBanana and mayo? Interesting! I agree, I think the banana cheese combo is gross but every once in a blue moon I'll have one :)
DeleteGuess I'm not the only one who freezes candy! I like to freeze milky ways too!
I like to eat tart jams by the spoonful and get intense cravings for vinegar...! Potato chips inside a sandwich, especially ham and cheese were standard behaviour at parties when I was growing up. Who doesn´t love that!
ReplyDeleteYUM! I also like vinegar or anything tart. Sometimes I slice up a lime and just eat it by the wedge. I don't this my dentist likes that very much!
DeleteI love peanut butter and dill pickle sandwiches. I also love sliced bread with just a smear of mayo.
ReplyDeletePB and pickles? I'm definitely trying this. Yum!!
DeleteI hate it when foods touch each other on my plate. This is terrible at Thanksgiving when there are so many items, I basically need a personal platter so I can make sure nothing touches :) Oh and agree, potato chips in sandwiches is genius!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Love it! You should invest in those plates with compartments :)
DeleteI really like the recipes that you wrote, it looks tasty
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteI eat the same food for lunch at work every single workday!!!
ReplyDeleteBaby leaf lettuce from a specific stand @ farmers market, with no dressing!! Plus a handful of raw walnuts and a couple of fruits. It is eating for sustenance & cheap!! Coworkers make serious fun of my habit.
Hey I can appreciate that! I tend to eat the same food every day - especially when it's delicious and cheap!
DeleteI thought of another one for myself. If I grab a handful of m&ms or any colored candy, there can't be more than one of each color in the handful or else I pick them out! Am I nuts?!
ReplyDeleteI like the yellow and red m&ms the most!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePJJ, F35 elect
I always like (in order) brown - blue - orange - yellow - green - red
DeleteWell, let's see... I have never had coffee or tea in my life, and I drink hit cocoa every morning - even in the summer! Oh, and I only eat chocolate on days that end with "y!"
ReplyDeleteUm, that would be "hot" cocoa! (I hate autocorrect!)
DeleteNot sure if it's quirky or just less common, but I like bread crusts and the crispy rice at the bottom of the rice cooker. Most people seem to be not so keen so I happily oblige!
ReplyDeleteWe actually have a name for the crispy rice at the bottom in our culture and it's the most prized part! It's called Tahdig - I will be writing about it soon. :)
Deletehaha, love waht you do with gummy bears!
ReplyDeleteHmmm...I like to give my Coke a shake so it flattens a little.
You gotta try it! It really brings out the flavor!!!
DeleteI love the flavor of onion but hate actually eating chunks of onion. I pick all visible onion out of food. I used to pick bell peppers out of food too, but I got over that one at some point.
ReplyDeleteHappy early New Year!
Interesting - I am also big on texture! Happy new year to you too Lisa!
Deletehaha, i always eat the chunks first from my soup :) happy new year!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I guess your method makes more sense because then you can drink the broth at the end :) Happy new year to you too!
DeleteIm with lisa ill pick out all raw onion , just dont like he aftertaste
ReplyDeleteInteresting - seems like maybe there are a lot of folks like you guys who do the same thing! i'm not a fan of caramelized onion texture - i pick those out! but i love raw onion.
DeleteI FREEZE GUMMY CANDY TOO!! I thought I was the only one :p
ReplyDeleteHaha!!! We should start a support group! It's the only way to eat them! :)
DeleteI only eat red or pink gummy sweets and way too many of them!
ReplyDeleteI love this post and reading the comments! :D I'm a biiiiig sweet fan but have never tried freezing them - definitely something to try :)
Me too! I didn't expect to get so many interesting and amusing comments :) Def try freezing the gummies, it really brings out the flavor.
DeleteOh what a brilliant post. Cheese wrapped banana? Not sure on that one but will trust you.
ReplyDeleteI dare you to try it! :)
DeletePeanut butter on pancakes. So good! But not quite as good as the first season of shahs of sunset...
ReplyDeleteThat sounds amazing! Now let's talk smooth versus crunchy PB.... And lol @ the shahs comment :)
