Differences in eating habits
 

Ray called last night from a restaurant in Kansas City. Said he'd had to
send his steak back twice. Why? Because he likes his steak well done. I,
OTOH, prefer mine just about to walk off the plate! Medium-rare is as close
as I like to get to well done. He also prefers steak fries as opposed to a
good crispy-skinned rubbed-with- butter-sprinkled-with-salt baked potato. I
like steamed broccoli without cheese sauce; he wants it boiled to death and
covered with cheese.

It is a wonder we get along at all! We do, however, agree on Cajun food.
When I told him I'd made red beans & rice with chaurice sausage for dinner
he said, "Damn! Now *that's* what I want!"

He makes a darn fine seafood gumbo, too. A bit heavy on the okra, but
that's okay. :)

I agree too... I'd like to know how many others here consider "eating
habits" an important part of a relationship.

I consider it a challenge :) For example, he likes meat loaf topped with
tomato sauce or ketchup. To my mind, that's rather gross! I prefer to make
mine with some chili sauce mixed in with the meat. I also use oatmeal as a
filler as opposed to breadcrumbs or cracker crumbs. Oh, and I add shredded
cheese to the mixture.

There are obviously things more important than food, although food seems to
be a universal language :)

I'm lucky in that my husband likes most everything I make at home, and tells
me often. Nothing like a bit of appreciation to make your evening! Dining
out, now, that's a different story. He likes his meat like you do. When we
met, I ordered everything well because that was what my father ate,
therefore what we all ate. In time, I began to order medium well, and
noticed an immediate different. Now, I order medium, and that's as far as I
go. I do not like the softness of meat cooked med rare, which is what he
likes about it.
He likes spicy; I like intensely flavored, but not spicy at all. He loves
cheese enchiladas; I need some chicken in there...texture you know. We do
agree on guacamole...fresh, no mayo or sour cream in it, extra lime.
I think our eating styles is a sorta parallel to other aspects of our life
together though...we both have our preferences, but we work around the parts
we don't agree on.

Hey, you can't beat a good meatloaf. Don't knock it! (laugh)

There is something *far* more important than eating habits. Hey,
eat what you want, I'll eat what I want. Just no liver. However,
what's important is sleeping, and I cannot sleep in a warm room.
It must be cool or cold. Much much more important than how you
like your steak done.

true. sleeping temp is crucial....most men are heat generators and prefer a
cool room, so a woman who likes a cooler room can just keep warm by curling
up next to the heater. (HIM) but if there is one who likes the room
hot....well, somoene will never be comfortable....probably the one who likes
it cooler. they will kick off the covers every night.

far more important in a relationship is not so much what you like to eat,
but degree of importance food is.

two foodies, great relationship. 2 non-foodies, that works too.

but someone who lives to eat paired with someone who is not only not a good
eater (doesn't eat a lot of different things) but also doesn't care about
food....could be a recipe for disaster.

I'm with you. It's probably from growing up in a house kept cold for
financial reasons, and found out later that I had no heat in my
bedroom the whole time, long story. At any rate, I don't need an
alarm clock, when the heat comes up in the morning, I wake up.

Uh ... Jack? I guess I didn't think I'd have to tell you this, but
we don't pee with the seat up. Now, can I assume you have removed
the lids from your toilets since you don't use them? I hope you at
least kept the seats. Might have female company, dontcha know.

Amen... I even keep my floor fan on straight through the winter... It's
not so much the cooling of the fan as it is the sound it generates...
the soft constant hum puts me right to sleep... Sleeping in pure silence

Me! I'm glad Erik and I have such similar tastes in food,
although he started off as a very picky eater. We both love trying
new things, spicy food, darn near any ethnic food, etc. (Shaddup,
Boli!) If he'd been the close-minded type about trying new things, we
wouldn't have as much fun as we do...and he would've starved to death
on our trip to Malaysia.

As it was, all my relatives (and I'm not exaggerating here,
I do mean ALL) remarked at least once each about how surprised they
were that Erik tried and liked everything. They seemed happy, maybe
even with a note of relief that a different diet would need to be
accomodated. Erik ate everything they did, chilies included, AND
with chopsticks. I think it got so that my relatives were buying
extra food just to see what he'd eat. ;)

Oh I'm with you there, Nancy. Even in Alaska I slept with the window open at
least part way. Nothing worse than sleeping in a warm/hot room. No socks in
bed either.

Gotta agree on this, too. D and I might not like exactly the same
things, but we agree way more than disagree about spiciness, doneness,
etc. And variety, too. Octopus? Bring it on! Hamburgers? Fine!
Satay? Say hey! Jamabalya? Yup!

I can't get her to eat chicken livers, however, so no dirty rice chez
Odom.

This summer saw our thirtieth anniversary. We'd never have stuck
together that long if she didn't like ribs.

If you're passionate about food, someone who isn't can be a real letdown
when you want to share a meal, especially if you've set up tent together.
Personally, I wouldn't make it that far.

People who are passionate about food usually have other similar
passions the exist well together. I coud never see myself with
someone who just ate to fill their stomach, or was a picky eater.

In my house we dealt with this problem by instituting House Rule #1 -
"You may not use what you think a person is thinking against them."

My wife finds this to be most unfair, but it helps to keep the peace.

LOL, you haven't heard, Dora... Erik and I went to a sushi bar
and they had deep fried oysters (panko crumbs) as an appetizer. Well,
it was a long shot, but we were both curious so we ordered it. The
verdict...

Not bad! It's not my favorite food, but I'd eat it again. The
sushi bar served it with hot mustard and mayonnaise, but I'd prefer
cocktail sauce. Boli is gloating that I'm a convert, which I am
NOT. But I'm open to trying it again. <g>

Fried oysters? Delicious - I knew you could do it!
I agree - cocktail sauce. I can't picture mustard and mayonnaise - but
then, I still haven't had the courage to try sushi, either, so you're one up
on me! That Boli, that troublemaker (VBG).
BTW - is the chat room still visited?

He claims to be an innocent bystander, so that makes him a liar,
too. <g>

The mayo and mustard were unusual... The appetizer actually
came with a pile of finely shredded lettuce, a dollop of mayo
(Japanese mayo I think, it tastes a little richer and eggier to me
than say, Hellman's) and another of the same hot mustard you get in
Chinese restaurants. OH, and a dish of teriyaki dipping sauce,
I'd forgotten about that. One of the owners indicated we were to mix
the mayo with the lettuce as an accompaniment, but we didn't really do
much of that...there was too much food as it was. :)

Yep, it is...drop on by! People aren't always there by early
evening, but you can usually find someone on after 9 pm EST.

Agreed - I've had them at parties and they don't last five minutes. I've
also had them scrubbed, baked in the oven until the shells open, then
scarfed them up. Good eating!
