Eccentric Eaters!

Princess · 02-24-2012, 07:16 AM

I've been told by many a person that I am an eccentric eater. This could be because of something I am actually consuming, or even the way I am eating it. So i thought it would be fun to see how many of us are out there, and what our food quirks are. I will start

*I put sriracha on literally everything I consume, its a terrible habit and I am sure that it'll bite me somewhere down the line.

*I have cravings for saurkraut, just plain old kraut straight out of the jar!

*One of my favorite food combos is pickle spears dipped in ranch dressing.

Now, your turn! Have fun!

I have been told I am a bit eccentric and a picky eater lol
I put ketchup on almost everything, and I think it is a matter of how i eat things, some foods have to be cooked or done a certain way, in a certain order etc. One item i seem to get on occasions that makes everyone comment is a pizza sub from Subway, but I like lettuce and tomato on it *shrugs* lol

I have a subway thing too..the meatball sub, but with lettuce, tomato and ranch dressing. They always do a double take when I ask for ranch, I guess I do eat most anything with Ranch now that I think about it....ohs well

peanut butter slathered on top of a banana

1QuirkyKiwi · 02-24-2012, 12:15 PM

Carrots cooked until almost mushy or eaten raw and grated in a Salad…

Baked beans served in a bowl as a side dish, unless it’s Beans on Toast…

When eating fruits, I chew with my front teeth then push them up against the roof of my mouth to squeeze out the juice before eating properly…

I’ll eat Olives/Olive oil and Sun dried Tomatoes/Sun dried Tomato Pesto with most savoury dishes…

Sushi has to have Avocado and Spring Onion among the filling…

I eat vegan Cheese and Mustard Sandwiches when I’m sick…

Breakfast Cereals I eat with Apple Juice; Milk and Milk alternatives (except Rice Milk) turn my stomach just looking at them…

macele · 02-24-2012, 12:35 PM

the only thing i can think of that i absolutely must have is Blue Plate mayo. oh gosh i love Blue Plate! and i'll eat it with most anything. eggs, butter beans, biscuit, cornbread/onion and BP, banana, shrimp, ...

i like order, ... on my plate. and i like eating foods in order.

eccentric? i don't know. peculiar? yeah.

Melissa · 02-24-2012, 12:53 PM

Carrots dipped in Peanut Butter.

foxyshaman · 02-24-2012, 05:39 PM

I have to really careful with what I eat. I cannot eat very much prepackaged foods. So, no cans of soup, no dried or freeze dried foods, no salad dressings, no cheese, no milk, no bread, very little butter, no peanut butter (

)... and the list goes tiring-ly on.

But, to compensate for that, I have been given this ability to eat the same foods day and in day out without suffering consequential boredom.

Eating out is a challenge. I tend to go to places that make everything from scratch. But to avoid issues I don't go out much. I bring my own food for potlucks.

And I love saurkraut with cinnamon; potatoes with soy sauce... and I am sure I will come back with other oddities!!

02-24-2012, 05:54 PM

Porridge (jumbo oats) made with water, salt, black pepper and butter.

I have a cupboard of hot sauces that I put on everything from toast to mac and cheese. Different sauces complement different foods. Tabasco goes with eggs, although not as well as magyar izek which I can't find anywhere. Bajun hot sauce is particularly good with black pudding and a touch of Jamaican scotch bonnet sauce good in pea and ham soup.

Saurkraut on Baked Beans.

Pickled Rad Cabbage with Potatoes and Mayo.

I'm not the only one with (con)fusion tastes with Saurkraut! LOL!

nycfem · 02-24-2012, 06:35 PM

I can be quite the eccentric eater

. Sometimes when I go out to eat or even at someone's home (like a potluck), I find out what there will be to eat, and I bring my own stuff to add to my plate, kind of like "altered food"

. For instance, I will bring vegetarian bacon in my purse to a meatcentric breakfast or great salad fixins' to add to a blah salad. Sometimes it's about keeping what I'm eating healthy and satisfying or bringing protein to a lack of decent vegetarian options. And sometimes it's just about adding my favorite ingredients to whatever is available

. People look at me weird sometimes but I'm used to that!

sylvie · 02-24-2012, 09:40 PM

i have some weird ways of eating, definitely.. lol.

When i eat toast, i eat the crust first..Then i will literally separate that toast by peeling the top layer off of the bottom layer.. i will roll up the top layer, and eat it, and then i will roll up the bottom dry layer, and eat it..always in that order...

i am very much a texture girl.. if it's mushy, i can't eat it.. so i never boil veggies , i'll steam them or stir fry em... they have to have a crunch..

When i was growing up, one of my fave things to eat was peanut butter and sugar on bread.. (while i don't eat sugar anymore and MISS it lol) i would still eat this if i could.. sprinkle the sugar on top of the peanut butter, shake the excess off and yum, yum, yum.

i have SO many things i can share, so i'll be back lolol.

Metro · 02-24-2012, 10:04 PM

comfort food from childhood = peanut butter and pickle sandwich (must be dill pickle and crunchy peanut butter on white bread)

it's a sweet 'n sour combo. delish!

Mtn · 02-24-2012, 10:09 PM

I am a cook with a toddler's palate, I can cook alot of upscale food that I would never put in my mouth. Give me kraft mac and cheese anyday, and I am a happy camper. I also prefer to eat out of a bowl, no matter what it is.

Bree & You share this love of mac and cheese, from a pot!
hehe..

Ebon · 02-24-2012, 10:14 PM

Pickles and cheese together.

macele · 02-24-2012, 10:26 PM

you know we eat stuff, like pickles and cheese, together all the time. but when the two are thought of together, alone ... it's not the same lol. i love pickle and cheese on a hamburger. but i don't want to eat just pickle and cheese! lol oh no! now just pickle and onion, yeah, i like that lol.

Glenn · 02-24-2012, 10:26 PM

Nuts.Every kind of nut.More nuts. All day nuts. Everyday... nuts.More nuts with ice-cream lol!

Lady Pamela · 02-24-2012, 10:50 PM

Mine is cheese... I love cheese. I love it best to have a bit while drinking hot coffee.

I'm a lime freak also. Salads I use only lime on it.
