The Tiniest Details in Eating- My Food Quirks

Whilst eating matcha ice cream in an enclosed wafer biscuit just now, I realised i took a strange little delight in biting into the flattened wafer that separates one pocket from another so that the bite is neat before i start another pocket. This became almost an obsession as i quietly try to bite off that section without Shawn noticing, heehee...

I do admit i have certain habits when it comes to food selection and partaking. It puzzles some people (a very cool lady did not understand why i didn't eat a dessert after thinking about it for DAYS) and frustrates my family members.

They tell me i am picky with food. I beg to differ. I am just very specific with my likes and dislikes :) So maybe this (growing) list would be helpful to some people who cannot decipher my food cravings, hee...

I like:

1. that thin film that clings unto the seed of a durian
2. tiny pieces of potato chips
3. but big pieces of fried carrot cake
4. burnt and crispy rice
5. ice cream in a cup/ wafer biscuit
6. the slight effervescence in my mouth as i eat an over-ripe fruit
7. the slight sore throat extremely sweet tropical fruits give (my favourites are longans, mangoes and durians)
8. spooning soup unto my rice as i take the FIRST mouthful. And only one spoonful. (Then i realised quite recently that my dad does the exact same thing!!! freaky!)
9. Ya Kun Kaya Toast
10. Sardine puffs. From ANYwhere.
11. Otah. From ANYwhere- even those bicycle vendors.
12. shortbread pastry for pies
13. raisins on their own
14. raisin bread
15. raisins in briyani rice
16. plain fish cakes/ fishballs

I dislike:

1. sticky fingers when eating a bag of potato chips so i eat them with chopsticks
2. melted/ melting ice cream
3. ice cream in a cone
4. the soup in green bean soup so i only eat the beans
5. red bean soup
6. a meal that consists of dry rice, deep fried food, no gravy and no soup. bleah.
7. toasted savoury sandwiches- i always request for my cedele sandwiches to be untoasted.
8. puff pastry for pies
9. blackforest cakes. YUCKS.
10. raisins in chocolates and cookies. I swear i nearly fainted when i took a sniff at some fruit and nut choc bar eons ago.
11. fish cakes/ fishballs with chilli flakes/ spring onions. YUCKS.
