Your little quirks on food and drink

[aka Cthulhu]

Hot drinks. Hate it. Can barely stand warm drinks. I half justify it by telling myself that I live in a tropical climate and I don't want more heat in my life. Kinda same with soups and broths. I want it to cool down first, but at the same time I love me some freshly cooked rice still hot. On rice I don't like pouring broth or soup on it because it can make the rice stop sticking to each other. If the broth is thick enough I'm okay with it, like curry for example, but if the broth is like noodles then I'll eat it separately.

I don't like meat that was cooked with the bone still in it.

Coconut is something I love the taste and smell of,but the texture makes me gag.

And I prefer my drinks room temp. Usually meaning I order any drink when I am out without ice. Only thing I drink cold is orange juice.

I hate a lot of sauces, many people love. Don’t get me wrong if it’s something that is cooked with the food like BBQ or stir fry I tend to love that sauce. But I’ve always hated ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, relish, etc.

Well I am a tall drink of water

My wife pointed out that I have a tendency to leave one or two bites unfinished on my plate.

I don't know why I do that...

If I have a meal that is something served with chips/fries, I always eat all the chips first and then eat the burger/chicken/whatever the non potato part of the meal is last.

Ketchup is evil and I would fully support a Constitutional Amendment for its total elimination from American society. I would also support US military intervention to prevent other countries from producing and serving it.

I like broccoli, but I can not eat soup with broccoli in it. Something about the texture of the broccoli in the broth just makes it unappetizing.

In the US with serving sizes being so large it can be a good practice to always leave some food unfinished.

I put mayo on a hotdog last summer as a joke (along with slivered onions, pickles and a slice of tomato) to gross out a friend and now it's my favorite way to have them.

The best chili has a touch of cinnamon in it.

My favorite condiment/sauce on smoked pulled pork is vinegar.

I HAVE to have some kind of dessert.

Even if its just a little something. After a regular meal I need something sweet. I dont drink soda though, so maybe most people just get their sugar fix with their meal.

So I'm half Sicilian, and thus grew up with lots of pasta and sauce in my life, yet for some deranged reason any time I eat egg noodles I want ketchup on them. It's how I ate them as a kid, but even now if I happen to have a meal that includes them I just put a spurt of the red stuff on it, which I know greatly disappoints my father but, hey, what can ya do.

I'm also not great with hot drinks; I enjoy hot chocolate now and then, but my mouth burns super easily, so sipping anything scalding hot in there really doesn't appeal to me.

[clodhopper]

Mash and gravy. Either one seperately is just fine but put them together and it makes me want to vomit.

For Filipinos, it's part of our Filipino spaghetti. Got hot dogs on it. Usually it's banana ketchup, but normal ketchup is used as well. In general, most spaghetti or tomato sauce brands here that are "Filipino" style is marketed as sweet.

Mayo isn't too unusual, a few regional hot dog styles include it

Carolina style with chili and coleslaw is underrated.

I love beef rare but pork and chicken has to be cooked until they're dry as a bone.

This is how my daughter is. She gets really upset (she's 10), if she doesn't have some kind of dessert after dinner. Sometimes it's the usual fare (chocolate, a scoop of ice cream, etc.) but sometimes, we give her fruit and she is fine with that. She just has to have something AFTER dinner or she is a "mess". LOL

I can't do hot drinks either. I need hot cocoa to be cooled down a bit & I greatly prefer iced coffee and iced tea to their hot counterparts.

[H-Virus]

I hate cold meats. If it’s been in the refrigerator, it has to go in the microwave first. Ham sandwich, fried chicken, steak, doesn’t matter. Same goes for leftover pizza: people say I’m nuts but cold pizza is awful.

[Cvslfc123]

I hate Coca Cola but like Cola flavoured sweets.

I love chocolate but don't like certain chocolate flavoured things like ice cream or mousse.

I hate coffee.

I used to hate beer but love it now.

Cherry flavoured things are the worst.

[häšhtå.gdālėÿ]

I’m extremely picky about fruit. If it’s bruised or misshapen or looks even slightly “off” in any way I will not eat it.
