    What's your weird and wonderful food habit?
    Okay, so after years and years of living in ignorance and after numerous discussions with friends I have learned the truth. I have a food habit. But not just any food habit...a food habit which everyone else thinks is weird.

    Don't blame me! Blame the parents, they're the one's who introduced me to this habit and now...no matter how hard I try...I can't break it.

    The thing is...

    I can only eat fruit if it's seasoned.

    Yes, you read that right seasoned.

    Apples- have to be cut into slices and sprinkled with salt
    Satsumas- the segments have to be dipped in salt and pepper

    (there are other examples but you get the picture)

    And fruit salad can only be consumed after being seasoned with 'chaat masala' (a mixture of dried mango powder, cumin, black salt, coriander, dried ginger, salt, black pepper, and chili powder)

    I maybe one of few who like to eat fruit this way...

    But I'm certain that I'm not the only one with a strange food habit..

    So, TSR what's your weird and wonderful food habits?

    For me, toast must only be eaten with tomato sauce. No butter, just TS.

    I eat everything on my plate mostly in order of which I like them, worst to best... and I don't mix my food together, e.g put a chip on my fork and add some peas or something like that

    I like to dip my fries in my McFlurry sometimes, my aunt made me try this and I was reluctant at first but I ended up liking it

    Not a big one but for me, the bread on a bacon/sausage butty HAS to be toasted and buttered. It just seems immoral otherwise...

    Putting my chips into my burger before eating it. Oh and fishfingers! Not really that weird but I make the whole packet (30 of them) and eat them by self in one go. I guess it's cos I get hungry a lot and that's like the easiest thing I can make, just pop them in the grill.

    Lol like any butty, get two pieces of bread, i personally use tomato sauce on the bread, you could use mayonaise or something like that, and put your fish fingers inbetween, cooked preferably , surprisingly tasty

    I put pepper on EVERYTHING. including some desserts

    I also won't eat a sandwich unless I made it, because it has to have the perfect bread to filling ratio

    Re: What's your weird and wonderful food habit?
    Hmm.

    Well, when I have a plate of food, I have to mix things. I always make sure that nothing is left alone at the end. If that makes sense... Like, say I have sausage, egg and chips. If I get to the end and there's just egg, I can't eat it. Thus, I make sure there's a bit of sausage or a chip to go with it.

    Also, tuna and cheese. Apparently that's weird... I don't think it is, seeing as you can buy tuna & cheese paninis in a lot of places.

    And I eat tuna (out of a tin and mixed with a little mayo) with potato - like chips or waffles. My boyfriend thinks that's strange.

    Oh and here's one, which I think is a northern dish (for some people!)... Chips, cheese and gravy. Some places will sell it, but most people seem to think it's weird. It tastes delicious.

    My strange perception that cheese goes with anything & everything.
