I clean while I cook so afterwards there really is nothing to clean. This is very The Anal Retentive Chef, but it helps me enjoy my food much more knowing that all I have to do is put my plate and fork in the dishwasher once I'm done.

I was alone...in my BIG BED

I usually finish the various items on my plate within one bite of each other.

When I was much younger(honest), I used to take all the peas out of vegetable soup, put them to the side of my bowl, and eat them afterwards. Gross.

Does eating the biscuit sides on a bourbon to try and leave the creamy middle bit intact count? Oh god, I have more of these than I thought.

Stop picking on me Homers

I'm just kidding my friend. I can relate to the biscuit habbits. I used to have loads of them.

when I eat roast beef sandwiches with potato chips (american) and a pickle, I often put the chips inside the sandwich... oh, that goes back to this http://forum.frankblack.net/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=10068&SearchTerms=,weird, which I just recalled... and which I just noticed was started by my alter-ego: UberDumbass...

I read in Tiger Beat that Donny Osmond has that problem, too. Or at least he
did back in the 70s.

I have so many twisted culinary habits that I don't know where to start.

Surfer, that might belong in the Too Much Information thread. Though it may not be
scatological enough...

How To Fold Soup - Steve Martin.

We middle-class folks are now all pretty much aware that the lunchpail is strictly a boorish accoutrement. It's just about impossible to maintain an air of dignity when you're carting around a clumsy tin box with a bologna sandwich in it. Yet it is certainly stylish to bring one's own lunch to work. Many people who sought the chic of a brought-from-home lunch weren't about to tote that bulky lunchpail, and the answer for most citizens was to hide food on their body, then at lunchtime produce it from various pockets and hidden belts. This is a wonderful solution and can even give the most dreary office building a certain outdoorsy feel.

However, with all the ingenuity involved in hiding various delicacies on the body, this process automatically excludes certain foods. For example, a turkey sandwich is welcome, but the cumbersome cantaloupe is not (science has provided some relief, of course, like the pecan-sized watermelon ready to be popped into the mouth). One person lined a pocket with vinyl so he could carry around dip and munch all day, dipping the chips into his vest pocket and having them emerge fully doused with onion spread. Another acquaintance had a sport coat equipped with a banana loader, arranged so that by lowering his arm a banana would secretly drop into his hand. This proved ideal for long meetings that continued through lunch, as the drop was made so discreetly that others would naturally think you had been eating a banana all along.

These "tricks" may seem too elaborate for the average unique person desiring to bring their lunch from home, yet still insisting on a fully-balanced meal. The answer is soup. Soup is a robust addition to any meal and just about everyone has a favorite. But the primary concern is "how can you carry soup on your body without appearing ridiculous?" When you ask yourself this question, you are ready for soup folding.

Soup Folding.

First prepare the soup of your choice and pour it into a bowl. Then, take the bowl and quickly turn it upside down on a cookie tray. Lift the bowl ever so gently so that the soup retains the shape of the bowl. Gently is the key word here. Then, with a knife cut the soup down the middle into halves, then quarters, and gently reassemble the soup into a cube. Some of the soup will have run off onto the cookie tray. Lift this soup up by the corners and fold slowly into a cylindrical soup staff. Square off the cube by stuffing the cracks with this cylindrical soup staff. Place the little packet in your purse or inside coat pocket, and pack off to work. When that lunch bell chimes, impress your friends by former the soup back into a bowl shape, and enjoy! Enjoy it until the day when the lunchpail comes back into vogue and we won't need soup folding or cornstalks up the leg.

I imagine all the hottest forum guys just hanging out, having some
man time to themselves, the occasional towel flying, lots of
talk about sports teams.

Surfer, how did you and I yet again manage to get a thread off topic and
onto the subject naked man flesh?

Dude .. we used to have this big cabinet behind my seat at the dinner table when I was a kid. Everytime we have broccoli or peas, I'd put them in a tissue and store them in the cabinet. Let's just say my parents were quite suprised on moving day.

Oh yeah... another kid story...

When I used to eat my lunch at school, I'd eat my sandwich then pour my juice box on to the cellophane and drink it like that....

I understand the dry cereal thing. I had a housemate who was the complete opposite - he used to put milk on his cereal the NIGHT BEFORE stick it in the fridge just so he could have especially soggy cereal the following morning.

Turns my stomach just thinking about it.
