What weird food habits do you have?

I don’t know anyone that does this and it seems like it’s probably embarrassing so I keep this hidden. Only my husband knows

I drink a big glass of fat free lactose free milk every day. I didn’t think it was something to be ashamed about! Getting calcium from the original source is much better for your bones than taking supplements.

My husband and I both drink milk every night with dinner, as do our kids. We go through 3 gallons a week. My mom had very severe osteoporosis so I'm willing to take on the extra calories from a glass of milk/day in hopes to avoid her fate.

I only use salad forks! When we set the table, only DH gets a dinner fork. Everyone else prefers salad fork.

pbj on saltines.
As a kid I hated white bread sticking to the roof of my mouth and jelly soaking into the bread so I started using saltines. Every so often I'll buy a box of saltines and have nothing but pbj saltines for supper.

I also nibble on orange peel when I eat an orange.

this one is the only interesting response here. I'm going to have to give it a try.

Please do and report back! And don’t be stingy with the cocoa powder.

Cinnamon and sugar on mine. On toast.

I eat Fiber One nearly every morning for breakfast. I don’t think it’s weird but enough people have commented on it in my lifetime for me to think it’s an unusual choice. Yeah, it looks like a bowl of mealworms but it’s my absolute favorite.

When my brother and I were little if we woke up in the middle of the night hungry, our parents would give us jelly on saltines. I am not clear why they thought sugar and carbs were the choice to make, but I still like that combo. Every Passover I eat pb&j on matzo.

Everyone in our family prefers salad forks instead of dinner forks! We call them the small forks.

I drink the juice left on the platter from a steak or roast beef.

I put peanut butter on asparagus. My grandmother apparently started doing this during the depression when they were given some surplus peanut butter and had wild asparagus growing in their yard. She even had some “recipes” for putting peanut butter on other vegetables. My mom used to make them sometimes when I was little but I was the only one who liked them. The only one I still eat is peanut butter on asparagus—it’s really good.

I hate spaghetti.

When eating Chinese food, I only eat the outside of egg rolls and dumplings. Egg roll wrappers dipped in duck sauce and dumpling wrappers dipped in dumpling sauce are amazing, but I don't eat the filling. However, if we're having Chinese at the restaurant (very rare), I do eat the whole thing, so I don't look weird or insult anyone.

That's a sign of ADHD sensory issues. 3/5 of my family has ADHD. The small utensil use is real. My husband eats off a saucer some times and looks at me like I'm the odd one for wanting to use a real plate.

I eat my steak well done, cut into tiny chunks and cooked in butter with garlic.

Can't have fruits (except mangos) without sprinkling with Chaat Masala.

Wow, you would be perfect to share with! When I get an egg or spring roll I push all the filling down to one end and tear off the excess wrapper to discard. I could definitely be convinced to only eat the filling of dumplings.
