I have a serious question for the people who were talking about their aversion to the texture of certain foods. Like that fellow talking about carrots being gross. I am not trying to make fun of you or bullshit anybody. Do you guys drink at all? Alcohol, I mean. I have heard anecdotal evidence from people who were finicky eaters, didn't like things like bone-in meats, runny eggs, pickled fishes, stuff like that, that drinking and doing a lot of drugs helps you get over those things. As in, even if you stop drinking a lot and doing the drugs you're still over your problems with food finickyness. Teriyaki Hairpiece fucked around with this message at 03:08 on Nov 5, 2015 |

A Wizard of Goatse posted:heroin is a gateway drug to button mushrooms I was thinking more of weed, but heroin definitely makes you give less of a poo poo about things. I know it's a half-baked theory.

Weldon Pemberton posted:Yeah. My brother doesn't eat cheese (except on pizzas of course, because that doesn't count) or any beverages other than water because of a similar early-childhood illness. I'm not trying to be annoying, but here's another picky eater who doesn't drink. I never got responses from this threads selective eaters, but I'm still wondering if the "doesn't drink = more likely to be choosy about food" hypothesis holds up.

I'm pretty sure a lot of people got into coffee by starting with 'this is lovely gross water that warms me and helps me do work, and I'll swill it down to do those things', just like most people got into booze the exact same way except replace 'helps me do work' with 'helps me be fun'.

Honest advice: Starbucks is usually your best option for a place to poop if you're walking around an urban center. Walmart in the country, Starbucks in the city.

At least in America, there used to be all kinds of non-foreign sounding names for foods. For instance, avocados used to be called "alligator pears" and pomegranates "Chinese apples".

Bobbie Wickham posted:Apparently it's originally a British term, and it's used in Dutch for oranges, so it's not strictly an American ting. (I've never heard of the term "Chinese apples" before this thread, so I wouldn't pin this one on the Americans.) I am American, and I have definitely heard more than one older American person use the term.
