My eating rules and habits:

  • Liquid foods cannot touch
  • Rounds of bites are taken in an order which includes at least one bite from each food on the plate every round
  • The most flavorful/juiciest piece of entree will be saved for last, with the best piece of side item to seal the deal
  • When eating a meal, I drink only water avoid ruining my palate
  • Absolutely no sweets before mealtime. This rule can extend for upto an hour easy ๐Ÿ‘Œ

What's an example of two liquid foods that might be eaten in the same plate?

[โ€“] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

bbq ribs and coleslaw as long as they're not touching

I eat my meals from the least tasty parts to the most tasty parts in order to eat most of the food and not only one or two ingridients.

I'm very similiar. #2, #3, and #5 certainly. #1 I have an aversion to many liquid foods, so it's not really an issue for me. #4 I have the palate of a 5 year old, so there isn't much to ruin.
