    I'm one of those pineapple on pizza kinds of people. Some think it has no place on a pizza. I disagree.
    Couldn't agree more. It adds a whole other dimension!

    I love broccoli and cabbage in all forms! Oh, and I can't stand the thought of rare/medium rare meat, i prefer steak totally burnt to a crisp so you have to chew it

    haha fair enough. I don't really like fried eggs, but poached taste really similar to boiled
    Ah okay, maybe I'll try one some day then. As long as they're not slimy it'll probably be okay

    I like to cook rice until it goes sticky and soft and clumpy. I do this by not stirring it and overcooking it. Yum.

    This isn't particularly unpopular, it's just uncommon. Steaming rice without stirring it is standard practice in most asian countries, especially Thailand.

    Nice. My flatmate did mention that sticky rice has a name for itself and is cooked like that in some places...

    Still, it's not very popular with another flatmate who insists it should be stirred, and my fiancé must be physically stopped from stirring it.

    To be fair standard boiling is quicker so I use it occasionally. When I steam my rice I use a 2:1 ratio of water to rice, bung it in a saucepan then bring to a simmer together with the lid on. With the horrific oven I have in my flat, it can take up to 45 mins for the water to fully evaporate =P

    Cornflake and ketchup butties are absolutely divine.

    Ice cream is disgusting.

    Haggis is delicious.

    Pork products, as a general rule, are not. The exceptions are: pepperoni/salami/other spiced type things like that, smoked sausage, frankenfurters and some sausage rolls (just not the cold ones where the meat tastes like Play Doh). Bacon, ham, gammon, normal sausages etc. make my stomach turn!

    (Basically I only like overly tampered with pork)
