I had a family friend who was almost as persnickety at Julie about
food. He wasn't fictitiously allergic or intolerant to anything
(this was before that fad). He would eat at a lot of fairly high end
restaurants and travel frequently. He ordered his steaks well done,
Insisted his hamburgers, sandwiches, and hot dogs came plain
(nothing but bread and meat - no cheese of any sort), wouldn't eat
seafood, potatoes, eggs, no fruit, very few vegetables - no salads
of any sort, and nothing "foreign" except pizza with no cheese.

He applied to be a food critic/reviewer for the AAA Guidebooks.
Fortunately they turned him down.
