Food Obsessions

[Rubyrose]

Following on from Dot's obsession Q. I was wondering if anyone has any food obsessions? Like a certain way they have to eat something?

I have to have a bag of crisps with a sandwich and I eat half the sandwich with the crisps in it, then I tip the rest of the bag on the plate and put them in the other half and throw all the crusts in the empty crisp bag. :o)

I have to have two rounds of toast with scrambled egg and they have to be cut square ways so as the egg goes neatly in the middle. :(

[purpose]

Oh Rubyrose, NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

That is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO wrong!!!!!

Sandwich + crisps = sandwich first, crisps after.

OBVIOUSLY!!! :0)

[Rubyrose]

Purpose.. Noooo! Thats terrible! How can you do that? I have to put the crisps in the sandwich and then squash it down so they crunch up! Oh God! I hate it when I see someone eat the sandwich first and then crisps! My ex used to do that and all the way through his sandwich I would be saying 'Don't you want your crisps', trying to make him open them. Lol.

Ruby -I have to have peanut butter sandwiches with half a packet of salt'n'vinegar crisps inside,all squashed flat,then I eat the rest of the crisps - perfect!!

But only with peanut butter sandwiches!

[purpose]

Mars Bar = nibble around the edges first, then eat the top half followed by the bottom half.

Roast dinner = eat all green/orange veg first, followed by a mix of the rest. FINALLY finishing with a forkful of meat followed by a forkful of parsnip followed by a forkful of roast potato.

Twix. Pull all the caramel off, then bite the sides of choc off, then eat the biscuit :-) and forrero roche, eat the outside then bite in half and lick the chocolate out, then munch down the rest :-)

[purpose]

What is wrong with you?!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband does that: 'Don't you want your crisps?'

Me: 'YES!!! AFTER MY SANDWICH!!!'

Burger and chips (rarely, but it's another of his moaning traditions) = chips first follwed by the burger.

[purpose]

4getmenot... SO right but SO wrong...

Twix = nibble sides first, then peel off the top and then eat the biscuit.

FR = EXACTLY!!!! Well done for doing it right!!!

I always stir my cup of tea 7 times clockwise, also only open crisps right way up.

[unruliejulie]

If i have a cob/sandwich or burger (McDonalds) i always have to eat all around the edge first, saving the middle bit with all the taste till last!

[mccfluff]

if i have a macdonalds i have to put half the chips in the burger

[dot.hawkes]

cheese on toast, sliced not grated, and the slices have to fill the bread right to the edge and fit together like one of those wooden geometric puzzles, no gaps and (gasp) no overlaps! And who in their right mind would drink coffee out of an aluminium mug!!!!!!!!! That's real crazy, it's a china mug or nothing. (d'you think any one of us could live on a desert island?)

[mccfluff]

dime bars = eat all the choclate of the outside then east the centre, roast beef monster munch can only be eaten in a marmite sandwich

[Rubyrose]

Purpose. You're doing it all wrong I tell ya. You haven't lived until you've had a crispy sarnie. Lol.

Dot, I am with you on the cheese on toast thing. No gaps and it has to fit. *nods*

If I have crisps or chips, I have to eat all the smaller ones first then eat them in size order leaving all the big ones till last!! I don't put them in sandwiches, BUT if I have a tuna sandwich I HAVE to have salt and vinegar crisps, no other flavour!! And I do eat a crisp then a bite of sarnie, then a crisp and so on, I don't eat one then the other! Magnum Ice cream, eat all the choc of first then savour the ice cream!! My bf just chomps the whole thing down in about 4 bites which makes me so mad!! He also never ever sucks a boiled sweet or mint, he just shoves them in his mouth and crunches them, same with anything nice, he just gets rid of it in as few mouthfuls as possible!! Drives me bonkers!! I like to savour everything and make it last, particularly good stuff!!

[purpose]

Rubes... i have a wee confession (ew... that could be a whole different thread couldn't it?) i HAVE had crisps in a sarnie.

It's actually one of my fave sarnies to have BUT it has to be salt and vinegar crisps. NO OTHER FLAVOUR WILL DO.

Have i just broken one of my own food rules?

[Rubyrose]

Ktlou - I don't put crisps in a tuna sandwich coz thats just sick but if they are salt and vinegar then I put them in! Weird! I wonder why they are the best flavour with tuna?

[caz21]

i get really fussy about cups! I cant drink tea or coffee out of a dark coloured cup! heaven forbid a dark coloured inside of a cup! cups with chips in are a big no no too! At home i have to drink tea out of a white china cup with skimmed milk and coffee out of a pale blue cup with semi skimmed milk (in first)! and no second dip of the tea bag! I throw it away if someone makes it wrong! and i never have a drink at someones house unless i know what the cups are like because they usually turn out black, chipped and milky! yak!

[Litchick]

I can only drink wine out of a wine glass. PLEASE DO NOT GIVE ME A PLASTIC CUP! :)

[kazzianne]

Jaffa cakes - eat the chocolate off the top first,then the sponge on the bottom - then suck the orange bit in the middle till all you have left is an orange slice - then gobble it up!!
