people make comments about me like:

"we can't eat there, cause you're such a picky eater."

"i can't believe you don't like ________. what is wrong with you?"

"is that all you're going to eat?"



geez! i KNOW i am a picky eater, i don't need other people reminding me of it all the time!! being berated about my eating habits makes me even more uncomfortable about it.

The next time you are going out for dinner, why dont you suggest where to go. That way you will be going somewhere you like and you know you will eat what ever is there.

i like most meats and breads. i don't like eating them "together" though (sandwich style.... burgers off the bun for me!). i love fried eggs, but refuse to eat them cooked any other way. i like cheese, but only if melted (can't just eat a slice.. and no cheese on potatoes please). literally, the only "vegetables" i will eat is tomato sauce (not tomatoes), pickles (their cucumbers! and dill only, hamburger sliced.) and potatoes (which is really a starch). and red or green peppers, sometimes onions is ok on pizza.

i don't like strange combinations of food cooked in special sauces... casseroles, yuck! anything with coconut and i'm running.....

it really leaves you limited.

usually i am forced to pick the restaurant TNT, and i get tired of it. cause usually someone is disappointed in the place i pick or are tired of it. so i just stopped eating out with anyone.
