AndyMan 7 #76 March 22, 2002 MY biggest pet peeve is people who don't know the difference between "there", "they're", and "their".My second is picky eaters.Sure, we've all got things we don't like. I don't like liver. Or tongue. I find them repulsive. The only way I managed to sop my parents feeding me liver as a child was to publicly humiliate my mother while she was chaperoning a school field trip.But PICKLES? Or TWO BOTTOM HAMBURGER BUNS?or even worse: NO MUSHROOMS?Mushrooms are a godssend. They're a natural source of MSG. MSG "turns on" your tastebuds. MSG literally makes other flavors stronger. This is why cheap-ass chinese food "restaurants" love it. Anyways, mushrooms literally make everything else taste stronger.Crustations? They are just SO tasty. Who was the first to eat a lobster? I dunno, BUT THANKS! I'll buy you a beer if I get a chance....Tonight for dinner I had a lemmon-pepper chicken penne with a mushroom onion bolognese sauce.All home-made, too. Took me about 12 minutes.Yummy._AmICQ: 5578907MSN Messenger: andrewdmetcalfe at hotmail dot com AIM: andrewdmetcalfeYahoo IM: ametcalf_1999 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canopycudler 0 #77 March 22, 2002 Quote NO PICKLE ANYWHERE NEAR MY PLATE. I said it just like that every day and I swear to god they would fuck it up at least once a week. They had these huge sliced pickles they would put on there. The juice would get on the bun of the sandwich or soak into some fries and it was impossible to cover up if they just took the plate back and removed it from the plate. If a pickle was within a foot of the plate I would know it. If they tried to pull one on me I would let them have it. OMG!! I'M THE EXACT SAME WAY.. IF EVEN A SMIGIN OF PICKLE JUICE GETS NEAR MY SAMMICH.. LOOK OUT!! Here a question to ponder.. why must a perfectly good grilled cheese be soiled by the juice of a pickle? Is there some unknown edicate with grilled cheese that i am unaware of? Why does everyone think it has to buddy up with the pickle? I mean seriously.. cheese and pickles are not realives.. now.. cheese and french fries.. they can be cousins.. cheese and chips, they can be brothers.. but cheese and pickles.. thats like a bad divorce hanging around. ewwww...

Zennie 0 #79 March 22, 2002 Got into this one a little late...* I don't do entrails or anything on/in the head.* On the veggie front, no likee the beets, asparagus or squash.Other than that, I'll eat just about anything.I loooooove spicy food! I've only been to two restaurants in my life where the stuff was so hot I couldn't finish it ... a Thai place and a Tibetan place ... and wherever I go I tell 'em to make it as hot as they can. Tabasco is nothing. There's this hot Vietnamese chili sauce I get that's *way* better. I use it as ketchup on my french fries, squirt it in my mashed potatoes, etc. etc.Jalapenos are no big deal. I eat 'em like pickles all the time. Habaneros are good (never had the gajones to eat 'em raw though ), but my absolute favorite pepper is the chipotle. Not as hot as Habaneros, but I really like the nice smoky/spicy flavor they add."Zero Tolerance: the politically correct term for zero thought, zero common sense."

Donna 0 #86 March 22, 2002 Oh I do like croutons and bacon bits (real ones!). I don't suppose you can have a salad with just those and no lettuce or anything........ can you? Blue Skies,D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donna 0 #87 March 22, 2002 Oh man! I hate pickles and their juice that runs into everything else on your plate! I always get my chicken sandwich plain at BK. And they often screw it up. And there is NO way you can wipe mayo off!My oldest son is even fussier than I am and I didn't think that would be possible. When he was a little kid around 3 we went away on a vacation. He flipped out the first night at supper because his hamburger roll had sesame seeds. We tried to scrape them off but that didn't change his mind. Then I thought of getting 2 bottoms since the sesame seeds were on top. Well he found ONE seed on the bottom roll and refused to touch it. Of course there was nothing else on the menu that he liked. The next night we carefully checked before ordering (or even deciding to eat there!) to make sure this place didn't have sesame seeds on their buns. Nope. We thought it was all good. Well the hamburger ended up being square instead of round and he wouldn't touch it. He still hates square ones to this day (just turned 16). He says the corners are always burnt.Blue Skies,D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #89 March 22, 2002 There's are bar here in College Station that if you can eat 6 of their Hot Wings, you get your name on a trophy and a t-shirt. Only 40 people have done it. Actually, it's more then a bar, it's a place called Harvey Washbangers that is a bar and grill and a laundrymat. How cool is that, you can get f**ked up, eat good food, watch the game and do your laundry. "ahhhhoo...the little guy hasn't done anything yet and you know its going to be good..."

Magistr8 0 #91 March 22, 2002 Here is what I have to add about you picky eaters. We need to eat to live. If you don't like a food you will find that it is more that likely caused from selective digestion. I used to be alergic to milk. Knowing that I was I also knew that I just really didn't want to drink it because of the way that it tasted. I decided one day to drink it and instatly became addicted to driking it daily. I also thought that I would try all the other foods that I had previously not enjoyed and loved them. The point kids is your mentality. If you think it tastes good then it will taste good. Pizza for example everyone loves pizza because it is the food that everyone loves. Liver, well that speaks for it self and I do have my limits.Who ever said comming down from a high was bad obviously never tried this.Magistr8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedRacer 1 #93 March 22, 2002 QuoteDitto!!! How can ANYONE eat FUNGUS!!!!well, if you eat bread or drink beer, you're eatin' fungus!First of all, for people who say they dont like veggies except for corn: A lot of people don't cook veggies right. they boil 'em until they're soggy. Veggies should be lightly steamed & still crunchy. & they should have soy sauce or other interesting sauce put on them. I can't stand that boring-ass 'middle american" cooking where you boil the fuck out of green beans that have been sitting in a can since the Carter administration, and are greyish-green, and are served with nothing but butter and salt. Yuck!Fresh steamed broccoli & sliced red bell peppers & a few bits of bermuda onion, all fresh & lightly steamed, served with a little soy sauce! That's the way to do it!-----Another point: I've dated & been friends with a few fussy eaters & they're a real pain in the ass. They only like the most boring food imaginable, and whenever you cook for them or order food you gotta work around their bullshit food hang-ups.fuckin pain in the ass!A woman I dated two years ago wouldnt eat anything that had cooked onions in it!! Think about it...that covers a LOT of different foods...soups stews sauces, etc...!!!Speed Racer"Fill your hand, you son-of-a-bitch!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
