Annoying food habits...
I am so annoyed by people who are totally close-minded about food and refuse to even try anything new. I once dated a guy who refused to eat anything except fast food hamburgers (meat and bread only) and fries. He wouldn't even eat a homemade one. Oh yeah, he did eat one other thing- his mom's "famous" spaghetti which consisted of spaghetti, the fattiest and cheapest ground beef you could buy, cooked and un-drained, a can of mushrooms and a jar of cheez-whiz. Mixed all together and never served with salt or pepper, for that would make it too spicy. I can honestly admit that was the most revolting thing I have ever eaten. I love to cook and eat and experiment, so obviously this relationship didn't last very long. Thankfully I found a guy who shares my love for food and we are now happily married.

My boyfriend drives me INSANE when he eats! He holds his silverware like a freakin shovel! I'm dying to say something to him about it, but don't want to his feelings. It's actually embarrising whe we go out to a nice resturant, all dressed up and here comes the shoveling...agggghhhh

I really hate it when I've spent hours preparing a meal and my husband and other family members eat it so quickly that you have to wonder.....did they really even taste it?
I also hate it when people mix their food. Ok.....when I was a child I mixed my food, but it really is annoying when you have spent a lot of time preparing a meal with great flavor and someone mixes each bite! My suggestion.....make things easier for them and just put it in a blender before serving :)

Oh yeah:
1. I hate it when people put ketchup on everything, particularly eggs. This is extremely nasty.
2. people who refuse to try new things. Flat out refuse. Or refuse to re-visit foods they hated as a child. Taste buds change! I hated mushrooms, brussel sprouts and artichokes as a kid (who didn't?) but now I'll eat them gladly (although I'm slow in the mushroom department...can't get too exotic with them).
3. Most importantly: Get. Your fork. OFF. My plate! If I want you to try something I have, I'll offer it!

Wost food habit is not coming to dinner when you're called. My mom used to have a fit about my brother and dad lollygagging now I know & understand her frustration. Its so irritating to spend hours making a really nice meal only to have it grow cold in front of you while for whoever to just finish up an e-mail or whatever that can so clearly wait.
I also ate breakfast with a guy once that cut everything up into bite sized species (two fried eggs, sausage, hash browns) mixed it all together with ketchup and hot sauce until it was a homogenized slop and then shoveled it all in. It was the grossest.

What immediately comes to mind: ex-boyfriend put a truckload of salt on anything I cooked before tasting, even if it had salt in it. Now that's an insult and a half. Once I made a casserole and he asked for butter to put on it. I was like "whatttt???" and a shouting match ensued. Bad memories to put behind me immediately after this comment!
