What are your weird food rules?
What are your weird food rules?
For example:
-
When you open a fresh jar of peanut butter do you only work through one side until it is completely empty then start on the other side?
-
Or when you get those shallow tubs of hummus does it have to make it back home undisturbed? Then one of the baggers at the grocery store shoves it sideways into the bag completely ruining the symmetry.
You're viewing a single thread.
Food should be finished at the same time. You work gradually around all of your sides and main dish so you have exactly one bite of each left, and then you finish your plate.
My SO drives me nuts because they can just eat the entirety of the main dish and then eat all of one side, and then all of another.
Eating one dish at a time ensures you're getting the full, unadulterated experience of the dish.
But sides are made in consideration of the main course and are intended to be eaten/enjoyed together.
Why are side salads typically served before, and separate?
Because they are a separate course and not a side. They call it a side salad like Americans call the main dish an entree, we like to use words wrong.
Then the world is lawless chaos, and I can enjoy my meal one dish at a time.
Word meanings shift over 500 years, nobody is using "entree" wrong because it means different things in different cultures and has changed several times over the centuries. The way we serve and eat meals has also changed considerably.

I like this write-up, it had plenty of historical examples.
I've never seen anyone else ever do this and now I don't feel as alone.
I eat this way and people look at me like I have two heads.
I never want to eat in front of anyone who has replied to you so far. I'm a chaos eater. Nothing exists besides the current bite. I didn't remember what the last one was and haven't decided what the next one will be.
I'd like to introduce you to me - I eat the starch, then the veggies, then the protein. Order of preference, descending.
I eat like your SO, though I do mix it up a little sometimes, but it's because I'm saving my favorite thing for last. I don't want to end up with my least favorite thing at the very end.
I've never wished I could eat in front of another human being more than I do right now. I just really want to trigger you with this and I don't know why.
Start with your favorite dish and when its gone move to #2.
That's like ejaculating on someone's face and then working your way to foreplay. If this isn't against the Geneva convention it should be.
