Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
My question is:
Do you have any eating habits that people think are strange?

i’m actually kinda… ok, very picky. so probably everything i do when it comes to eating is probably a little strange, maybe even annoying.
Not to my knowledge.
Hmm, I don’t eat syrup on pancakes – I eat them with butter and sugar on them instead. I hate soggy pancakes.
I like a peanut butter samich with my chilli
I also like to put Ruffles on my sammies & smash them
I like me a peanut butter and bologna samich too.
Dipping grilled cheese into western dressing. I also enjoy grilled penut butter sandwiches. Also Canadian bacon pizza and sauerkraut
I love doritos with lemon and hot sauce, particularly Tapitio. Most people think it is gross, until they try it.
I close my eyes when I take a bite
my hubby thinks it is strange that I don’t like peanut butter, yams or beer.
but other than that I think I’m pretty normal. ;D
I have a strange habit of holding my pink up when I drink
I don’t think so.
I do not know. I like to drink my coffee in the morning, sometimes it get cold… but I will still drink it. Hubby thinks that’s strange:-)
Filipinos have a lot of food that are considered ’strange’ that I eat. I eat ‘balut’ (boiled egg with an unhatched duckling inside it) and sea weeds, or fried fish heads.
As for eating habits, hubby thinks it’s strange that I don’t touch food like fried chicken when i eat it. Or that i use knife and fork to eat pizza.
I go through spells where I just eat one thing. Hey, if it tastes good, right?
I don’t think so…I hope not!!!
Not that I know of. I hope not! LOL
I tend to break off pieces of sandwiches and eat them rather than eating the sandwich whole.
There has to be something else…
Oh – sometimes I sprinkle salt on my watermelon. My husband thinks that’s pretty strange.
Nope – I don’t think I do.
I refuse to eat meat “off of the bone” — you know like ribs, drumsticks…blayhhhyk!!!
I eat ketchup on odd things . . . a leftover habit from childhood.
Also, I eat too fast . . . also a leftover from having to compete with 5 siblings for 2nds at the dinner table.
Not really, although I’m a semi-vegetarian, which some people think is weird, and I’m also very picky.
I like to dip my french fries in mayo, which is probably not very healthy and sometimes grosses people out. I don’t see how it’s any different than dipping in Ranch dressing! I also don’t like whipped cream, and people seem to think that’s so weird.
Yes!
1. I dip my pepperoni pizza into ranch dressing
2. I always say I don’t eat pork, yet I eat bacon, fried pork chops, pork rinds, and ham sandwiches! I’m such a liar that way…
helk yes!!!! i eat icing only off of cakes! omg i don’t like eating out of the jar either….i have to have it off a cake that’s made!
I don’t like tomatoes but by themselves but I love pico de gallo. I hate them on burgers and sandwiches too. But I love me some ketchup!
I like ketchup on steak, even if the steak is a $30 dollar piece of fillet!
When I eat cookie dough ice cream (not often) I save all of the cookie dough to the end. It drives my hubby bonkers!
Nope, not me!! *L*
I actually do not like people that I really dont know to see me eat.
I am not sure that I do have any eating habits that are strange.
I don’t think I’m all that strange. I do love dipping french fries into both ranch dress and ketchup at the same time. I like to dip lots of things into ranch like club sandwiches and pizza crust. Too bad it is so bad.
I don’t mind drinking most soda flat, although don’t leave it out so it becomes that way but if it is I’ll still drink it.
I drink the leftover milk in my cereal bowl. I never thought that was strange until someone told me it was gross. I still think a lot of people do this. Why waste?
I am an extremely picky eater…so yes!
HI:) I really like bitter tastes, like grapefruit, pale ales my kids think it’s horrible:)
I put ketchup on hard-fried egg sandwiches.
I want ketchup on steak, not steak sauce.
I want ketchup on hush puppies, not butter.
(See a pattern here?)
I also drink the leftover milk out of my cereal bowl.
I don’t like syrup, so if I have to eat pancakes, I use ketchup (yep, back to that again!)
hmm… i like eating green mangoes dipped in vinegar, salt, and chillies.
My husband thinks my eating rituals are strange when it comes to pancakes, french toast, or waffles. I first, butter everything on both sides, then I stack them up and cut them into small pieces. Finally, I smother the pieces in syrup and can take a bite. (By this time, he’s already halfway done with his.
My husband thinks that eating peanut butter & banana sandwiches is weird. I think it’s quite normal! LOL
Definitely. I eat one part of my meal at a time and don’t move on until it’s finished. Also, I don’t drink with my meals.
I smell everything before I eat it, and I am obsessed w/ the expiration dates on food, if it says it has expired I toss it even if it smells and looks ok
I have several, but a few come to mind like the fact I warm my milk in the microwave before pouring it in my coffee! My mom’s friend did this, so it totally stuck to me. He did it for his tea, which I drank a lot of back then, so I started doing it for my coffee. Makes sense when you think about it. Why pour cold milk into a hot cup of coffee?
Several years ago, I got hooked on celery. Raw celery, with nothing on it! I was like an addict with drugs, I had to have it and I didn’t like sharing. I would buy stalks, clean it, cut it up and eat it like there was no tomorrow. Finally, last fall, it stopped. I didn’t have the need anymore! Weird, eh?
I like to put coleslaw on my field peas…don’t knock it till you try it!
Hmm. . .nothing too weird!! Some people cringe when I tell them one of my favs is a peanut butter and banana sandwich made with toasted cinnamon raisin bread ~ Yummy!!!
I like a little ketchup in my mac n cheese. I think peanut butter tastes good with just about anything (including mac n cheese). But peanut butter AND ketchup together – no way!
Oh my goodness, my wife thinks everything about my eating habbits is strange.
I put ketchup on my steak… hey you put ketchup on your hamburger and what is that?? ground up steak
You bet! I don’t like my food to touch the other food on the plate. Weird!
Not really I always put my corn in my mashed potatos and then my meat goes in with it. So every meal with roast, meatloaf or ham dinners its a big mess on my plate!
I can not sit & eat if there are crumbs on the table. It makes me sick.. A lot of people think that is weird.
i cant eat many dishes simultaneously.. one kind of food at a time…
I’m pretty sure all my habits are strange, lol. But, yes, the way I eat chicken is odd. I very carefully pull it apart and make sure that I pull out any veins or dark colored questionable anythings.
I really can’t think of any. I am pretty adventerous and will eat most things but I don’t think I do anything to strange with my food.
I can jump from food to food – such as pickles to ice cream to oranges to popcorn, etc.
My hubby thinks that’s weird – lol!
idon’t think it’s weird because a lot of people have the same issues…. texture. i don’t like a lot of foods because of the texture.
but i guess that’s a food issue and and not an eating habit. i can’t think of any odd eating habits.
hmmm… not sure? I like dried salted seaweed? thats weird to ppl. love artichokes, sardines…
OOdles and Noodles with hot dogs cut up in them and of course my martins potato chip boloney sandwich!
My food cannot touch each other.
Just a few things i dislike that most people seem to like: french fries, popcorn and eggs. I like them now more than I used to but still not very much.
my husband thinks it’s weird that i eat mustard on my egg sandwiches. i don’t think that’s all that weird!
Hmm. My husband thinks it’s weird that I like ketchup in my macaroni and cheese. Other than that I don’t like ketchup and don’t use it. I use to eat sour cream sandwiches when I lived in my first apartment (19 years old) and didn’t have a lot of money for food. I got my roommate to eat them too. I’d get the bread all crispy in a pan, with paprika first, then came the sour cream. I know, weird.
Hmm…I love chewy meat. Those carmelized bits on the end of roasts? MINE. It must be lean meat – no gristle or anything like that…I just like my steak a little on the jerky side.
Not really. Some people think it’s strange that I don’t like salt, but, that’s about it.
I frequently get teased because I do not like any food on my plate touching it’s neighbor. I am a big fan of everything in it’s place.
I’m Japanese-American and I don’t eat sushi–some people think that’s odd, but they are just stereotyping
I’ve made a mistake with my links! I first linked the wrong post, then I think I may have linked the correct post twice. Is there a way to get rid of the other two links?
mmmmm? I don’t think so…at least no one has every mentioned it. Maybe they are all just being nice? But I do like, no love ketchup on practically everything!
My question is about food too! Swing on by and answer
Not really…. I am kind of picky!
Not unless you think it is weird to put potato chips in a ham sandwich for some added crunch and saltiness
I pick the toppings and cheese off my pizza and eat them separately with a fork. Then I eat the crust.
I can’t think of any. I am so picky about food that strange combos wouldn’t happen with me.
Not that I’m aware of. lol
Hmmm, I’m not sure…would have to ask some people, I guess! I try to avoid foods that make my hands or face messy, like fried chicken, ribs, or watermelon! I hate cleaning myself up afterwards! lol
Skipping Breakfast. I know it’s not healthy but I just can’t eat that early in the day.
I once sustained myself a whole summer just on Mayo Sandwiches (and beer). It’s exactly what it sounds like…two pieces of bread spread with mayo. I wasn’t making a lot of money back then and what was left over after rent I spent on going to punk& ska shows. There wasn’t a whole lot of income for nutrition.
Fast-forwarding 15 years or so, I now eat very well. But every once in a while I’ll make myself a mayo sandwich because it brings me back to the good ol’ days.
I don’t think I have any unusual eating habit. Or perhaps I may just not be aware of it.
I don’t. My husband, on the other hand, is a weirdo! He doesn’t like his food touching. Meaning: his corn can’t touch his meat or his meat can’t touch his potato. Oddball!! Great question!
I love alot of Exotic foods, from other places – and where I live now if it’s not fried it’s not real food! (Southerners and their fried stuff!)
I dip popcorn in mustard.
Me? Oh yeah.
I don’t eat any food on a bone. I buy boneless or someone debones.
I don’t like nuts.
I don’t like fish.
That’s just for starters.
I eat my Big Mac in 2 sections – the “top” which actually resembles a burger and then the “bottom”, which is 1 meat patty, cheese and sauce on the bottom bun.
Oh, and I love ketchup on home made mac and cheese!
I like to eat my fries with mayonnaise and ketchup. My hubs saids that I am strange because when making a sandwich I like to spread my mayo on both insides of the bread. I don’t think either one of them are strange. lol
Here we go! For breakfast I like cooked rice with milk and sugar or bread with applesauce on it! For lunch I love apple slices dipped in mayo! Yum! When I was a kid I would put pepper on my ice cream. My friends would freak out but I really couldn’t taste it! Immature taste buds or something!
I’m very picky. I don’t like ketchup, mayonnaise, relish, mustard and most dips or dressing. I eat my burgers, hotdots and salads plain.
Tofu instead of meat when I have the choice at Asian restaurant
Two things, I eat too fast and I’m not too picky about what I stick in my face:)
Since going on a diet, I don’t finish an entire banana on my own. I half it and share it with a friend. My friends have to eat the banana even if they’re not in the mood for it.
The only thing I can think of is that I drink A LOT of tea. Like, at every restaurant and fast food. My mom thinks it’s gross that I almost never add sugar and drink it bitter. I don’t know if that’s “weird,” though.
Oh yeah – the only ingredient I put on a hamburger – AVOCADO!!! Get strange looks every time I order in a restaurant.
Bologna, mayonaise, and ketchup sandwich! Yum!
