Food [habits], I couldn't think of a better title [but Carrie did!] Options

My mom, brother, & I were at Costco today & ordered a pizza. We always have the habit of "patting" the pizza with napkins to take off the grease. So we did it. And as my mom was doing it, this guy was just staring at us & probably thinking "Wtf are they doing?" But to us it's normal because well, it's a habit.

Do you guys eat certain foods a certain way? Like whenever I eat pasta with chicken or whatever, I always roll the pasta first & then get a piece of chicken. I dk why. And whenever I drink drinks that are high in sugar, like Sunny D & Cranberry juice, I always put a little bit of water first so it isn't as sweet, you know?

I've seen people do that to pizza before, siphoning off the grease. The first time I saw it, I probably thought it was weird, but I've seen enough people do it by now that it's no big deal. I also know what you mean about the spaghetti and the chicken. I do that, except I don't eat meat, so I'm picking up a piece of Tofurkey sausage

When I was in elementary school, I used to slide the cheese off my pizza to save it for last. Now, I either fold or tear my pizza slices in half. Also, I will not eat a sandwich or burger until it's been cut in half.

Can you change it for me, please?


Speaking of sandwiches, I feel weird eating them without chips. It's like a burger without french fires. What I do sometimes is I put some chips in the sandwich & eat it like that. And have some chips on the side of course.

Wow I have some of the weirdest eating habits lol.

I don't know if its considered a habit but I drink my drinks REALLY slow, like I take tiny tiny sips while my sister like finishes hers in 5 minutes. I can never do that.

I'm like your sister. Kind of. I mean I don't chug the drink but I drink things pretty fast. My grandma, on the other hand, is like you. She takes forever lol.

Consider it done

Consider it done

Haha thank you.

If I ever eat pancakes or waffles, I never put the syrup on them, I put it on the side of the plate. They get soggy if you put it on them.

I put syrup on them but also put some on the side. Because usually the waffle/pancake has absorbed the syrup by the time I'm half way done so I just dip it in my side syrup.

Oh! Another habit: I dip my breakfast "sausage" in maple syrup. Done it ever since I was a little kid. There's something about the combination of sweet, savory, and salty.

Oh man I know what you mean. It's so good. Reminds me of that maple McMuffin thing from McDonald's. I can't remember the name.


Today I noticed that I have to have my fork on the right & drink on the top left corner of my plate. It's all about balance.
