I worked at a high school program for a few years (after school, spring break, etc) and there was a student who REALLY ate plain - white rice with nothing else, pasta with nothing on it. We called it the white diet. I remember we got pizza once but don't remember what he did with it.
I mean, I love white rice, but with stuff. I can't imagine just sitting down to a big bowl of white rice.
I had a friend in college who would order a cheese pizza no sauce from Dominos most meals. It was so dry and I don't know why anyone would like it
I know a dude that literally lives on bread, cheese, and the occasional chicken nugget.
Could be a case of avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID)
Once new someone who wouldn't eat sauce or sauced things. Said it was too wet and it was gross.
It made me realize just how many sauces there are...
Lol I was just listening to a podcast and one guy said he doesn't like "wet" foods. And everyone quickly pointed out that he puts hot sauce on everything. But he didnt' consider that "wet".
Hahahah in my friend's defense, I can't argue that sauce doesn't make a food wet! I guess I just like wet foods.
They wouldn't eat soup, either, so at least they're consistent!
Oh no, I loooove soup. I've been fighting off a cough for the past month and have been eating so much soup and just drinking broth. Chicken broth with a splash of soy sauce is delicious, lol.
Ooooh yes soup when you're sick is wonderful! I dunno if it helps any, but I always have copious amounts of soup and broth when I have a respiratory illness. I hope you feel better and enjoy the soup!
Thank you!
My mother-in-law will essentially only eat things that are seasoned with salt. Nothing else. Not even pepper. I got her to eat a miso soup once, but that's still mostly salt-flavored.
Fast food veggies are gross. The lettuce is slimy, the tomatoes are flavorless mush.
And they put too much of their excessively sweet ketchup on those burgers. It’s messy and gross. Even as a kid, it was disgusting, and the pickle, too. Fast food burgers are way too soggy. Especially if you’re not eating it in the next 30 seconds.
(There’s a reason I don’t do fast food anymore.)
Asking for it plain isn’t being picky at all. I once new a guy who would insist on medium, half salt, double cheese half lettuce. And no. The salt thing wasn’t a medical thing. He’d scarf full salt fries.
Road tripping with that guy was “fun”
The reality is, ordering something the way you like it isn’t bejng “picky”. You’re buying food. It’s when you send a burger back five times because it keeps getting messed up because you’re order is freaking insane that it turns into “picky”.
You're wrong and I'm glad you no longer do fast food because I'm sure you were probably a pain for the workers to deal with.
