Weird things you do/habits with food.

Re: Weird things you do/habits with food.

I dunk Oreos until the cookie part is soft. I'll take one by one out with a fork or spoon, lick the now soggy cookie part, then eat the cream.

Kit Kat. I'll eat the surrounding chocolate then peel off one layer at a time and eat.

If I get a cheeseburger with fries, I'll put the fries inside then eat.

M&Ms. I'll go in order of how many and what color (e.g. 1 red then 2 brown then 3 green, etc.). Same thing with Skittles. If I pour five and have 3 singles and 2 yellow, I'll eat the singles first.

When I initially eat string cheese, I'll try to make the skinniest possible strings. At some point I realize it's going to take me days to eat the damn thing at that rate, so my strings become progressively thicker and thicker.

I eat the heads off animal crackers before eating the rest of the animal cracker.

For any candy thing with a juicy center thingy, I like to bite exactly half of it, suck out the juicy center, and then eat the other half. Also, if I'm not eating them quickly, I like to eat skittles one half at a time.

I like my OJ with ice (supposedly a lot of people I know think this is weird?)

All of this.

When I make a sandwich it has to be with two "matching" slices of bread.

This and I add pepper.

oooh, i let my cereal get super soggy before i eat it. i hate crunchy cereal.

This.

Oh yea, I also Open up the cookies of the Oreo, and lick off the cream part before eating the cookie.
The same goes for peanut butter crackers!

This isn't standard practice?

But anyway, chicken bones bring out the dog in me. I pretty much eat as much of the bone as is edible.

Yea, the bone marrow is pretty tasty, isn't it?
Because I eat as much marrow as I can, too!

EDIT: and yea, I guess it can count as standard practice!
Everybody should do it, nowadays!

Re: Weird things you do/habits with food.

One thing I didn't understand about how Oreos are "supposed" to be eaten is why people lick the cream first. I actually eat at least one side of the cookie first, before eating the other side along with the cream (because...save the best for last! ). I used to actually try and remove both cookies from the cream but then realized that was just too stupidly inefficient and the cream would likely break off into a formless pile.

I take bites out of Oreos, no separate wafers.

I cut up meats and stab the pieces with a knife to bring them to my mouth.

When eating cereal, I have the bowl of cereal and milk and at the table. Then in arms reach, the box of cereal open and the carton of milk out. When I finish the bowl, I then put the cereal box and milk back where they belong.

I dump certain bagged foods (Cheetos, Trail Mix) into my mouth instead of using my hands.

i write with my left hand but eat with my right hand

I am literally the only person I know who does this.... does anyone else do that?

Re: Weird things you do/habits with food.

Hmm, let's see:

When I eat cereal, I have to let it sit for a few minutes. The bottom will get soggy but the top will stay crispy, and then I proceed to eat spoonfuls containing an equal mixture of crunchy and soggy cereal. Then when most of the cereal is eaten and mostly milk remains, I proceed to drink the milk and cereal down. I can't eat cereal any other way.

When I eat with chopsticks, I absolutely insist on eating every last bit of food with it. If that means picking individual grains of rice in my bowl for the next 10 minutes, so be it.

I *hate* most common condiments. This includes ketchup, mustard, pickles, relish, most dipping sauces, etc. This is contrasted by the fact that I enjoy eating foods that repulse most people I know (octopus, pig's feet, fish sauce, pretty much anything raw, kimchi, fish eye soup, etc).

Re: Weird things you do/habits with food.

ANY and EVERY meal I eat, I mix EVERYTHING into one jumbled mess and then eat it. Nothing gets eaten individually.

Obviously not the most quirky thing.... but considering many people I know can't stand when one part of a meal touches another and I'm sure the same applies to at least a few of you, I had to put it out there.

Re: Weird things you do/habits with food.

Not sure if this one has already been mentioned, but I eat biscuits like Digestives and Jaffa Cakes upside down (As in chocolate side down, even though it's supposedly eating them the right way a lot of people don't).

I can eat with both hands, but I write with my right hand.

you're either a weeb asshole or just an asshole, take your pick.

kind of like a food hipster but not in a good way

American condiments were frowned upon by asian flavors (if we can consider fish sauce a condiment) (and what's with the list of food, most of that is normal) were okay. So it honestly depends if Bynary is in fact a born and raised asian.

Example: It's bad manners to leave a grain of rice in your bowl after you're done eating.
Counter Argument: No person who uses chopsticks to eat all their lives takes 10 minutes to pick loose grains of rice out of a bowl.
