Habits Schmabits!

by healthy ashley on April 28, 2008

As I was separating my (black bean!) burger and David was assembling his at Chili’s on Saturday, I realized I’ve never shown you how I eat! Whenever possible, I eat everything separately. Even grilled cheese. I eat the cheese. Then I eat the bread. I like all my flavors separate (and I feel like I am eating more!).

So below I have my bun on one side, the patty by itself and toppings on the other side. I like my regular salads mixed together, but I always eat the big things first (croutons..).
David thinks I am a little cookoo. =)
Do you have any weird eating habits? I can’t be the only one!!

i’m very picky at restaurants. I always make modifications and substitutions. I’m sure the chefs love me!

Hey, thanks for the visit!

I’m trying to stay true to myself. The goal is the same….the effort sort of left me there for awhile. But I’m back!

Nice blog!

Don’t worry Mon, I’m the same way. They run when I enter the door!

I am a similar when when I eat dessert… I like to make it last so if it was a piece of cake for example… I eat all the inside part of the cake first and then there is a perfect “U”-like shape of icing to eat at the end… weird I know, but we all have our quirks, so don’t feel bad & appreciate your unique eating approach!

Happy Monday!

i make really weird “soft serve ice cream structures”

i start out making a tower and then hollow out the top and then work my way down with the spoon. it takes me an hour to eat a small fro-yo dish

Ok, can’t say that I’ve heard of eating everything separately before. That is too funny! I think I’m a fairly normal eater, but now I’m going to have to think about it. I will say I’m an incredibly PICKY eater though. I’ve gotten a ton better, but when I was little I wouldn’t eat chicken, mashed potatoes, ANYTHING green… I’m not really sure what all my Mom fed me.

There are definitely certain foods I have to eat a certain way, but not all of them. I don’t think its too weird!

That’s pretty cute! I can be very picky in restaurants (“no sauces! on the side! susbtitute that with this! how is it cooked?”), but luckily as long as you’re polite and apologetic most of the servers don’t SEEM to mind too much.

Also, when I eat sandwiches I always eat the crusts first. So I’ll munch all around the edges and save the middle for last. Yum!

It is a puppy I wanted to adopt. I have two puppies of my own, but I wasn’t able to bring this one home :(

I always eat the things I like the least first, then I eat the best last.
And I like to pull my food apart with my fingers. If I’m eating a sandwhich I will pull off bites instead of taking bites. Makes a mess sometimes, but thats what I do!

The only thing that I think I really do is save the best for last when I eat lol
