It'd be great if the guy who got so excited to meet goofy that he puked all over himself had that happen, like, a couple weekends ago. He was totally cool with fruit his whole life but just got totally AMPED about seeing Goofy and tossed his fruit cup all over his way too small "I <3 Mickey" shirt

big shout out to the people who eat frozen za and mac cheese 7 Days a week. I love you all, but I am also quietly relieved I no longer have to socially dine w/ you or anyone else thanks to covid.

CynCyanide posted:I have a coworker who will not eat any kind of fruit and will tell you about it at length. "It's a texture issue," he claims. Other times he claims it's because he got so excited to meet Goofy at Disney World that he barfed up the pineapple chunks he'd had with breakfast and hasn't been able to eat fruit since. There was a bowl of oranges at an office party once and he cringed away from it like a vampire from the sun. Obviously he's also a big attention whore. These are the same people who tell you that YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO ORDER HAWAIIAN PIZZA, THAT'S WRONG AND OH GOD DOES ANYONE LIKE ME YET IT'S EITHER THIS PIZZA THING OR I HAVE TO DEVELOP A PERSONALITY! I don't really like Hawaiian pizza, but good god who gives a gently caress.

EorayMel posted:All Lettuce loving sucks rear end but I will not object to spinach leaves. Am I one of these people who are unreasonably weird about food? Spinach is great but it turns into a goopy mess way too easily. Biohazard posted:Having food preferences is fine. Being a "picky eater" generally means you failed to develop past being a toddler. I had to stop dating a woman in part because she'd only eat the same 3 things, and the whole thing came off as incredibly childish and stupid. I saw no future with her, the same way I see no future with you OP. It's best we go our different ways and remember the good times we had. I agree, the picky eaters in my family have all tended to be narcissistic assholes in general who would fly off the handle over minor things. gently caress them.

Hawaiian pizza is good but I think the pineapple is frequently cut too chunky. It should be cut thin so that it carmelizes all the way through.

Freezes McCheeses is the picky eater mascot that all the kids crave. He talks like a drunk clown and asks kids to make sure they try all their food to get all their vitamins. Instead of making balloon animals he has pockets full of those crab and cheese stuffed mushrooms they always have on Chinese buffets for some reason, and they're room temperature.

Being a picky eater is not an allergy or disability and nobody who is kind enough to cook for you should ever feel obligated to accommodate all of your childish food kinks. It's the cook's job to push you out of the plane. Deal with it.

kecske posted:at least pick something good to be picky about. eating something that the mcdonalds cabal of burgermancers have engineered to tick the lizard brain boxes of fat, salt, etc isnt good why don't you picky eaters eat something that's good??? no not the thing that an army of food scientists have spent decades and the GDP of small nations refining into something that's so good that it is literally addictive. i meant good like, uh, kale you can say fast food is unhealthy and get no argument from me, or maybe your gut pipes can't handle all the grease and it makes you sick, fine. but saying fast food tastes bad is just a lie

I dont hate picky eaters, their tiny little culinary world is enough of a self own that any added scorn feels cruel. Especially the people who only eat frozen foods they can microwave or fast food are incredibly sad to me. They must feel like huge babies ordering chicken fingers off the kids menu whenever they go out to eat, it sounds like an incredibly sad life to live. And what about those people who only drink soda/energy drinks who love to talk about how gross water is? Water is basically the least offensive, most neutral, flavor there is and replacing it entirely with diet coke makes my skin crawl.

My boss won't eat bread, is actively disgusted by it. I can't make her a sandwich or anything. She will, however, eat pizza two days a week (she's like 100 pounds so can somehow get away with it), burritos, wraps, tacos, cookies, cake, and I just learned apparently alternates pancakes and waffles for breakfast. She claims it is a texture issue but I assume she was attacked by a man holding a baguette as a child and has internalized it, it's the only explanation I have for why she won't eat bread but will eat things that are 95% identical.

I'm technically "weird" about food, in the sense that I dislike a lot of foods that people like. It's not the same as picky though.Biohazard posted:These are the same people who tell you that YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO ORDER HAWAIIAN PIZZA, THAT'S WRONG AND OH GOD DOES ANYONE LIKE ME YET IT'S EITHER THIS PIZZA THING OR I HAVE TO DEVELOP A PERSONALITY!

EorayMel posted:People do that? Growing up, my parents owned a small grocery store and our house was attached to it. Among the biggest problems of being a teenager with unfettered access to junk food was from the age of 9-18, I'd only drink Mt. Dew, Verifine fruit punch, and the occasional milk. I'd drink water on infrequent camping trips once or twice a year but that was it. If the liquid wasn't sweet, I wouldn't drink it. Only after college did I start to voluntarily ween myself from the poo poo but it was a long process in my 20s and 30s going from sugared, artificial sweetener, seltzer to get to water. Even once I was able to get a "taste" for water, it took a few years to "drink" enough. It's only been in the past year that I've actually been drinking an ounce or two from the bathroom faucet when I wake up in the middle of the night to pee. How I managed to get to 47 without diabetes or major kidney damage, I don't know. I'm not terribly emotional about a lot in this lovely world, but seeing parents who transition their kids off breast milk/formula to soda is heartbreaking to me.

I dont know if people have a lot of control over their taste in food. If someone tries to eat something and doesn't like the taste, I don't see how someone can be faulted for eating what they like. You can't force yourself to like something, you can only have someone eat healthier because they know that the food theyre eating has a benefit in the future. Essentially, foodies are annoying.

I like most components of a supreme pizza, but I always prefer a big, dumb, greasy New York pepperoni slice, the size of your head. Supreme pizza is like a GWAR/Rod Stewart/Diplo collab track.

Oh Don Piano posted:there should be more salty/meat types of yogurt. why is it only sweet/fruit based this is very common in the balkans/central asia. like tzatziki. Also we have something called kajmak that you eat with grilled meat. It's kind of between butter and milk, so it's not really yogurt but it can have a similar texture without the sourness.
