Thirteen Things that are on my NO-NO list for eating. Out at Burning Man I was accused of being a finicky eater and was asked to create a Blog about all of my idiosyncrasies....ha ha ha, little did they know that I already have one! 1. Any Meat other than fish.....I don't claim I am a vegetarian because I still eat fish. I don't eat meat more because of the principle of eating meat, there are times that I would love a bite of steak or a slow cooked pork shoulder. 2. Cooked Fruit! No apple pie for me. 3. Green Peppers, red, yellow or orange either. They have a flavor that infiltrates all food that it is touching or cooked with and I don't like it, at all. 4. Carrots, I like carrots in the raw form but I especially don't like carrots cooked into cake, Carrots don't belong in cake! So, that leaves Carrot Cake on the No-no list for me. 5. I don't especially care for blueberries or bananas cooked or raw. 6. Ketchup, I have never really eaten ketchup, even as a child. Perhaps that is my aversion to tomatoes? But, I do eat tomatoes, I just don't like them all that much. 7. I don't drink Milk either. I attribute this to when I was a kid and my mother tried to fool us into thinking that we were drinking milk when it really was that powdered crap. Yuck. So, where I won't drink a big glass of milk, I will eat cheese, yogurt, ice cream, and I do put 1/2 and 1/2 in my coffee in the morning. 8. I know that the next one falls under my very first item but if you have known me for any length of time you would know that even when I was eating chicken, pork and beef that I never, ever, ever would eat Sausage! Ever! 9. I can't think of any other items that I won't eat, I am sure there is something out there that I am forgetting, but from the looks of things, I am really not all that finicky of an eater. There are only 8 things on my list, ok, some fall into categories and the total number is greater than 8 but it really isn't that difficult to remember the main 8. And if you really think about it, number 8 doesn't shouldn't even count as one because it falls under the first item on my list. So, that leaves 7 items. Not too shabby!
