TMI Tuesday: Eat It

1. If your sandwich is cut in half on the diagonal, creating two triangles do you bite the hypotenuse or the point?
The hypotenuse – pretty much a clean bisection.

2. Dipping a tortilla chip– do you dip the tip or the side of the chip to scoop the dip?
I’m weird with tortilla chips – I don’t like them covered with salsa or cheese – so I dip the tip and let it roll off before I eat it.

3. Do you think you drink too much coffee? How much do you drink daily? What is a “cup” of coffee to you–how many ounces/grams?
Can you ever drink too much coffee? If I could, I’d hook an IV filled with coffee and cart that sucker around all day long. It varies, but I drink between 5 and 10 cups a day, more in the summer when I’m drinking iced coffee during the day. I’d guestimate a cup to be about 12oz.

4. Do you take cream in your tea? How many sugars?
I like cream in tea, but it depends on what kind of tea it is as to if I do this. Usually 2 sugars, but sometimes I use honey instead.

5. How do you eat a burrito?
a. Pick it up with your hands, bite into an end.
b. Cut it in half, then pick up one half and eat it.
c. Eat it with a fork and knife
d. Open the tortilla, eat the food inside and eat the tortilla last.
e. Other
It depends on where the burrito’s from. Fast food burrito? a. Mexican restaurant burrito? c. If I’m low-carbing it? e. (open the tortilla, eat the food inside, and toss the tortilla, or open it up, move the ingredients into a low-carb tortilla, and then eat it with my hands.

6. Pizza…How do you eat a slice?
a. Pick it up and eat it as an open slice.
b. Pick it up and fold it together, then bite into it.
c. Leave it on the plate and eat with a fork and knife.
e. I eat the crust first, then the rest of the slice.

…Why do you eat your pizza like that?
If I’m eating pizza, a., with a bite right on the tip to start out. Low-carbing, I just eat all of the toppings off. I eat it like the former because that’s how I’ve always eaten it, probably because my parents taught me that way. For the latter, it’s how I eat it if no one thought to order chicken wings.

Bonus:
What is the weirdest thing that you are into?
Hmmm…I don’t know that there’s any weird food that I’m into, really. Or even weird combinations – I think I’m pretty normal food-wise. The only weird things I’ve eaten together was Lays potato chips and red pears – I ate that for days when I was pregnant.

Bonus, bonus:
Do you care if your different foods, on a plate, touch each other? Yes!?! What’s that all about?
Not usually. But it depends on the food. If I’m having spaghetti, then I don’t like the vegetables to get all covered with spaghetti sauce.
