Food Likes and Dislikes

I simply can't eat corn that has just come out of a microwave or BBQ and I have no other way of explaining it. It has something to do with the smell, every time it gets close to my nose it is like someone has hit me over the head with a plank. I can howvere eat it when it is mixed with carrots and peas and I can eat it when it is made into a porridge.

I wil try anyhing once and have learned a few things of what I like and dislike, the most common one is a strong taste like grapefruit or dark choclate.

I can't eat the same stuff over and over again, regardless if it is good or bad for me. The most I can do is eat the same thing 2 days in a row them I need sometjing new.

Um, did I write this somewhere, and you copied and re-posted it here? I swear I could have written this myself! ROFL at the neat little rows of prepped ingredients - I do that ALL the time. Everything from the main ingredient, to every single spice, all arranged in exactly the order the recipe calls for. NO the peppers, onions and mushrooms CAN'T be in one bowl, even though they all go in at the same time! That would be madness! Madness, I tell you!


No! Nononono. NO! I can absolutely NOT coordinate with another person on one dish. I tend to be quite obsessive when I'm cooking, and will micro-manage you till you cry. The garlic isn't fine enough, the celery is too fine, I need a sixteenth of a cup more onions (in French Onion soup, or something else that calls for, like 2 1/2 cups already) . . . WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU DIDN'T PEEL THE TOMATOES FIRST?!?!?!?!? :x:x:x If you're working on the salad while I'm working on the main meal, that's fine, but unless you are working on something TOTALLY separate, do not try to work in my kitchen with me! Yes, I am a kitchen Diva.



I can't get away with that, if it's a sit down dinner. I wish I could, but my BF would painfully remove very personal parts of my anatomy if I tried. But, if it's buffet-style, I often end up on the front porch when everybody else is out back.

i hate ice cream. the texture bothers me.

I absolutely cannot stand the texture of fruits and vegetables, they all make my stomach sick. Especially lettuce. YUCK. Unfortunately, my therapist wants me to adopt a vegetarian diet. I told her she had a better chance of becoming a mermaid than me becoming a vegetarian. I also can't stand fast food either.

The foods I do like are lean meats, most fish, bread, pasta, milk, ice cream, dark chocolate, potatoes, steak, cereal, etc.

I get an instant meltdown when I taste egg white or meat fat. I also dont like some foods which contain materials that I think shouldnt be mixed.

I don't like mashed potatoes or squash or peas. It's not the taste, it's the texture. I don't like anything with that kind of fine-grained mushy starchy texture because it triggers my gag reflex. Not only that but there's also the fact that they grow in the ground and look like dirty tumorous growths.

I don't get it either because potatoes are like the staple of western European food that all red-blooded Americans, English, Irish, Dutch, German, and all white people in general are supposed to like. They're just too ubiquitous in this culture and they're constantly being forced on me. Absolutely nobody I know doesn't like potatoes and as far as I can I'm the only one in existence. I just get so sick of all the potato lovers out there.

I also can't do non-marinated dry meat. It doesn't gross me out. It's just that it's flavorless, and almost impossible to swallow. No matter how much gravy I use I have to chew a single piece of white turkey breast for like 10 minutes before I can swallow. Otherwise it feels like all the dry stringy fibers are just going to get stuck on the outside of my throat.

Like: Asian food, Tex Mex and other spicy food.
Dislike: Bland and boring food.

I remember when i first tried Indian food. I ate Vindaloo for weeks.

Yea, I like most ethnic foods to some degree. Indian food is the best. I don't like most English and American food.

I don't like sausage (meat shouldn't taste sweet), mushrooms (fungis growing around the tree in my yard that's DISGUSTING), ham (tastes like fart), swiss cheese and provalone (feet smell!! !!), and seafood.

Oh, and my likes: umm everything else!?
CHOCOLATE

most of my food likes and dislikes are based on texture. i absolutely cannot stand jello. it's not a solid, but it's not a liquid. and nothing should jiggle like that. i'm trying not to gag right now just thinking about it. same thing for whipped cream. it's almost a liquid but not quite. cake is another thing i just can't handle the texture of. yet i have no problem with frosting, which is weird since i can't stand whipped cream.

Can't stand when crunchy food is mixed with soft food (think mint chocolate chip ice cream). I can snack on the chips and snack on mint ice cream, but don't mix. Even worse the instant pistacio pudding. I will strain the nut chips out of the powder first.

Of course dont let food touch each other
