Re: Weird thing about me....

I smell food before I eat it. I know if I will like it or not by how it smells. Raw food or cooked, either way.

Re: Weird thing about me....

When I brush my teeth I closed my eyes automatically. Don't know why, but I do.

I absolutely cannot stand it when people chew gum noisily. I think they look like cows chewing their cuds. Never gave my kids a piece of gum, ever. Had to change bowling teams because one of the other ladies cracked her gum incessantly!

Me, too! I ant stand any mouth noises, but particularly chewing gum. I don't allow anyone around me to chew gum. I wish it had never been invented!

My Grandfather believed we should eat as quietly as possible, not only when chewing but when cutting food or scraping plates with utensils. I taught my kids this. I also HATE the sound of someone eating an apple. UGH!

I love frogs, snakes and lizards and find holding them fun.

I don't like spaghetti sauces (types of) on chicken. Some food mixtures don't work for me.

Reading this made me realize that I do not like tomato sauce on chicken either, never have.

Re: Weird thing about me....

When I was a kid, I was so proud when I learn to pop my gum and crack it. It made me feel like a teenager. lol Now I don't chew it and find the noise offensive.

I also hate to hear and see people who chew with the mouth open. I have family members that does that. If you don't correct the habit when you are small, can't fix it as an adult I suppose.

Scraping utensils on a plate is like nails on a chalkboard for me. If i'm cutting, I stop right before it hits the plate and I try to pull it apart without scraping. If I don't hear the noise, I'm fine. Plastic utensils on real plates or metal utensils or paper plates. It is metal on real plates that makes that screechy noise.

It seems I hold my sneezes in when I sneeze which is usually 3 in succession. People tell me to let it out but that is the way I sneeze. My brother lets it out which sounds a building blew up.

Re: Weird thing about me....

Most of my weird things involve food: no combing textures (e.g, yogurt and granola). Also, if I am eating something with various colors such as m&ms or Skittles, I cannot eat two that are different colors (e.g, a green one and a yellow one). I can only eat two of the same color at the same time. Last one, and this is the most critical, no chewy meats! That means no steak, tough chicken, etc.
