Foods you eat strangely

Any odd ones?

I turn pies upside down - find them easier to cut open and eat that way.

I turn muffins upside down too - different reason though, it's saving the nicer top bit for last.

There's a girl at work who drinks porridge rather than using a spoon.

Have a mate who eats burgers the other way up as he reckons they are easier to pick up that way.

    Twix: eat the chocolate, then the toffee, then the biscuit.

    I used to (I do occasionally still) eat pizza by either: (a)scraping the topping off or (b) folding it over making some weird form of ghetto calzone.

    This is the exact one I came to post!

    Out of interest, just big macs though? I do it with nearly every burger, it just seems easier - plus you can make mini chip butties with the bun..

    My girlfriend thought I was a nutter the first time she saw me eat a burger.

    I know somebody who hates the feeling of certain foods on her lips. Takes her AGES to eat an apple. No idea why she doesn't cut it up first.

    Her own porridge or someone else's?

    When I was a kid, I'd get two slices of bread together, eat the outside crust then squash the remainder into a ball before eating it. Still do it every now and then (normally after coming home from the pub)

    Her own - those just add water ones. Treats it like a cup of tea.

    Liquorice Allsorts - the sandwich ones - gradually dissolve the outer, sugary layers in my mouth one at a time, then bite the liquorice into tiny pieces, unique!
    BTW, if anybody likes Liquorice look away now...

    Maybe I'll stick with the booze - it's safer!

    I eat porridge straight from the packet with milk and sugar, cooked porridge makes me want to heave.

    My missus also thinks I'm weird because I prefer cold custard.

    I assume it's not strange to felch Cadbury Cream Eggs?

    I especially love it on hot crumble too. To be fair, it's probably not just then cold custard that makes her think I'm weird.

    I lick all the flavour off any crisp I eat before eating the crisp.

    I sometimes eat an orange like an apple (once peeled, I'm not that weird!)

    Cut my rind off pork/lamb etc and leave it til the end, then eat it whole

    Crusts of the bread loaf - much better than the middle.

    with a packet of Chipsticks, I'll hold each one horizontal to my mouth and gradually push it in with my index finger while nibbling up and down. best with salt and vinegar because you get the taste on your lips.

    Jaffa cakes - Bite off all round the edge,peel off the orangery bit,eat the sponge then save the smashing Jaffa orange bit 'til last. Mrs thinks I'm weird and it really annoys her that I eat them this way :smile:

    That's the ONLY way to eat a jaffa cake


    Oreos, prise them apart, scrape all the white centre off with your teeth/tongue, eat the biscuit sides after

    Sausages.
    Years ago I overheard a pair of herberts having a conversation about the japes they got up to working in a sausage making factory and what ended up in the sausages.
    I love sausages, but to this day I have to cut every sausage up into multiple little 1cm rounds and study each round carefully before I put it in my mouth

    Ice Cream - I spit it in and out back onto the spoon until it's gradually gone.

    Maltesers - I set myself a challenge to bite the chocolate off without breaking the crispy ball whilst it's in my mouth.

    Any cake and custard - smash it all up and mix until it's a thick paste. then eat it.

    Fast Food drinks - never use a straw, always take the lid off and drink.

    I don't do this one any more, but back when I was a student, our canteen used to sell Cadbury's chocolate ice cream choc ices. I used to bite the outer chocolate off one end, suck the ice cream out of the middle and then eat the rest of the outside. These days it's difficult to find choc ices where the outside is thick enough that it won't melt before I've finished and the ice cream is nice enough that it's worth doing, so I rarely bother.

    I eat the whole apple bar the stalk.

    I save the thing I like the most until last, so if it's a roast, veg, potatoes and then the meat

    I also have the same thing for lunch everyday, without fail. 2 chicken and spinach sandwiches, 2 bags of McCoys cheddar and onion and flaming steak, and then a bag of chicken nuggets from tesco hot food counter

    Wash it down with a Coke Zero.

    Everything about me says 'winner'

    I think this is the way you are supposed to eat chip sticks so this isn't weird
