Weird food eating rituals!

[MeanLaureen]

Do you have any weird food eating rituals? Do you have to eat a certain food in a certain way? One popular ritual is the different ways people eat oreo cookies (I open them up and eat the white stuff first!)

When I eat M&Ms I always eat by color - brown first, then orange... it goes by my least to most favorite color at the time..lol

When I eat a Reeses Peanutbutter cup I have to eat around the edges first before I eat the inside.

How about you? Do you have any rituals you do when you eat a certain food?

 

[MeanLaureen]

LMAO!!

I just asked DH Obi-Wan Pinobi if he has any weird food rituals and he told me a doozy

When he gets something like a hamburger or a chick-fil-a sandwich he has to make sure that the pickles are not overlapping and are evenly spaced around the sandwich!

Whenever I have a cupcake I split it in half, horizontally, and eat the bottom first. Then I have the top, with the frosting, left. My First Grade teacher taught us how to eat cupcakes that way and I've been doing it ever since!

I like to eat my foods one at a time. I will start with my least favorite food on my plate and work my way up to my favorite item and eat it last. I never knew I was doing this until DH pointed it out to me when we were first married!

I eat lots of foods with a fork that most people just pick up with their hands. Like Cheeseburgers and pizza, I eat those with a fork a lot, I've also been known to eat sandwiches with a fork. I'm weird and have never claimed otherwise.

I learned growing up with three brothers to eat my favorite food first!! All too often they would finish their plates and I'd end up sharing whatever was left on mine. Now I do it so that when I shouldn't finish all the food on my plate I don't have to leave any of my favorites--I am less likely to eat every last bite if I have saved my least favorite items for last!

I do have a few weird habits about big macs and twix and dominos pizza -- big mac gets eaten from the top down, one layer at a time -- I love the burger with cheese layer and then the bottom layer of bread and special sauce. Yum. Dominos pizza cheese gets eaten first, then the crust. Twix, I prefer the cookie part so I eat or pull off all the chocolate and caramel and then enjoy that delicious crunchy cookie!

weird, right?

Hmmm. . .I think I'm perfectly normal but DH is one of the "eat one food at a time until its gone" types. So, he'll eat all his potatoes before eating his steak, for example.

I too eat m&ms by color(that used to be my tag).

I also start with my least favorite and go to my favorite.

I cant have different foods touch/mix. Like if its turkey & stuffing, I dont mind that. But on Thanksgiving when we have that stuff, and Italian food, I have to have a separate plate for my raviolis and sauce.

I like to eat the crust off of pizza first, but I try not to do that in public, LOL!

And as my current tag states, theres no going back and forth between 2 foods. I will eat all my fries first, then my burger.

I used to eat the chocolate coating off of the Ho-Ho's first. Then unroll them and eat them.

 

[luvmydogs]

I love parmesan cheese on my pizza. BUT---I have to take off the layer of mozzarella, sprinkle the parmesan all over the crust, then put the layer of cheese back on top of the parmesan.

 

[sue1013]

Jenn Lynn can't believe I'm not the only one! Instead of Ho Ho's we had Yodels (look like the same thing). Haven't had one in years.

 

[nativetxn]

I eat M&Ms according to color, too. I save the red ones for very last.

Well, I <i>used</i> to eat them that way, don't eat sugar anymore.

Corn on the cob is eaten one row at a time

I eat all the frosting off a piece of cake first. Then I'll eat some of the cake.I'm really not interested in the cake,just the frosting. My SO hates the frosting so I get that!!! I guess thats why we've been eating cake together for 28 years!!!!!

I eat m & m's weird too...I mostly eat the almond m&m's and when I eat them I have to eat the hard candy shell and chocolate off the almond first....then eat the almond.....I've gotten so good at removing the shell and chocolate w/out taking it out of my mouth and breaking the almond in half .I can eat 2 or 3 like that at the same time LOL

 

[julie_yet]

I microwave my M&M's to make them all warm and gooey inside.

Jenn Lynn and sue, I do the exact same thing to Swiss Cake Rolls! How funny.

I always eat Ramen soup and Chinese take out with chopsticks no ifs ands or buts.

And I do this weird thing with ice cream. I'll let it sit a little and then scrape off the melted outside. Then I'll flip it over and do it to the other side.

 

[leahannpen]

I eat all my sandwiches and burgers and bagels and stuff in a circle. I eat all the way around. Then I have this little circle of the middle left to eat at the end!

I like to eat my toppings off the pizza with a fork, then sprinkle garlic salt on the crust/sauce and eat that. YUM!

I love to eat potato chips with my salads.

I can eat any left overs cold, right from the fridge. My DH cringes every time and says yuck!

 

[bigsis1970]

I have to eat Ritz crackers with my Coffee Milkshakes ..

I dip my Wendy's FF in my Wendy's Frosty !!!! YUM salty fries and chocolate milkshake !!

My son Dips his toast into his Cereal milk

 

[Waffles]

When I get a Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger at Wendy's I always open it up and rearrange the bacon, they never get it right! The bacon is in rows and then the lettuce and then the tomato in the middle. I also have to scrape off the extra mayo, they always put waaayyy too much!

When we go out to eat I always take whatever I have left over home with me. Then, I put it in the fridge and about 10 minutes later I come back and eat the rest! lol

 

[JetMom]

I dip my grilled cheese into my tomato soup. I don't think it's weird, but my DH does.

 

[lilallybean]

OK I admit it I am just a tad compulsive when it comes to my food. I HATE for my foods to touch, if there is anyway of getting them on eachother, like mashed potatos and rolls. When we go out to eat at an 'all you can eat' place I can only get two things on each plate so I can keep them from touching and I make lots of trips back to the bars. LOL, really makes me look like a pig to those who see me going up again and again. If one of the items is EXTRA runny like something with a sauce or gravy I make sure I put a napkin under the other end of the plate to keep the sauce from leaking to the other food. I just can NOT stand to watch people mix mashed potatos with corn or peas....GROSS!!!
