Title: What do you eat?
Post by: Wild Fragaria on March 03, 2007, 09:14:40 am
Just a follow up on the overeating topic I posted recently, I am curious of what do you actually eat,  how much do you normally eat and what's your favorite food :)

I don't know if I have a particular favorite food, as it's mostly just whatever looks good in the fridge or on the road at the moment.

That said, I've had chicken fried rice, steak, entire loaves of bread, white rice, Ramen noodles (chicken flavored), and ham & cheese sandwiches over the past week or so.  Not the healthiest menu, but it fills.  I'm big into meats, which really irritates a lot of my veggie friends. :D

Wait till you try Salmon sashimi.... that stuff just melts in your mouth.

Favourite food: Anything Chinese can't go wrong. Chicken feet, pork trotters and beef tripe :) Delicious.

Highlighted words indicate "mmm, tasty."  Chinese food has a particularly nasty way of getting named so that it doesn't sound good at all. 

Especially trotters.  I mean, honestly, isn't trotters what you get after you eat really bad food?

Just don't think about what it is you're eating or what it's called... it's easier that way.

I love steak, especially filet mignon (sp?) and mashed potatoes with beef or chicken gravy.  Strawberries, blueberries, grapes and apples make the list for fruit.  I like any veggie, as long as it's not cooked.  Chinese food is great if I'm in a hurry. 

I've also been know to snack on Headz, when I need that extra special treat.

I saw duck uterus for sale in a Chinese supermarket in Philly.  Yummy :)

Chinese food (which in itself is kind of a huge generalisation, because it tends to clump in Szechuan, Malay chinese, Vietnamese, etc) is pretty much universally excellent in my experience.  Especially Dim Sum (turnip cake = yummy), albeit I've yet to see a proper Dim Sum restaurant in Glasgow.

As for daily eatings, today I've skipped brekky (up at 11 ;) ), had a yoghurt, chicken noodle soup with some bread, some melon-cake & green tea (the last of my proper Japanese stuff), some sweets, some pineapple, a turkey thing (coated in ham, cheese & mushies) and croquettes for dinner, with sticky toffee pudding + custard for puds.  Oh, and tea :D.

I'll eat just about anything, beef, chicken, pork, heck I'll even eat a cooked cricket or ant if I ever get the chance. I also love all kinds of veggies, Broccoli, turnip greens, and my personal favorite Polk Salad fried with eggs. The only veggie I have found that I don't like is Brussels sprouts, and not because they are nasty, they just taste like cabbage and I'm not too found of it ether unless it is in coleslaw.

However, I might be southern, but I hate tea and I hate coffee. Just give me choco milk instead. :D

I love food.  I eat a wide range of food except certain things that I'm allergic to or intolerance to.  I eat a lot of veggies and fruits (and I hate dried fruitesor pickles).  Seafood is also on my list of favorites.  French, Italian, Portugese, Japanese, South East Asian and Chinese cuisine are excellent.  I find a lot of Japanese food quite light and refreshing.  Good call, Ian :D  Chicken feet can sound pretty gross to a lot of people but if they are well prepare, they are actually be pretty tasty.  Darius, have you tried chicken feet salad (shredded boneless chicken feet and salsa like combination of veggie without tomato, lime juice plus mint and very hot chili pepper)?  :D

Any thing to drink??

Uhm...

Breakfast:
A croissant and milk
Lunch:
Pasta and steak
Dinner:
Rice and ham

Add somewhere some fruits, chips, chocolate etc.

Maybe you are saying: "And pizza? You are Italian and don't eat pizza?". Well, I'm allergic to tomato, so I can't eat pizza... :sigh:

There's a place about five or six hours from where I live that my family goes to at least once a year.  It's about ten minutes or so walking distance from the Indiana University campus in Bloomington, and it makes the best damned steaks/hamburgers in the world.  No joke.

Wow, how much do you weight?  Pop tarts are good.  Mushrooms are brilliant.

By the way, Korean BBQ is great if any of you like grilled food :D

I eat all kinds of things, but I'd say my diet focuses on meat.  It's either chicken/beef/pork most of the time.

My diet in between breakfast (which is either a drink and pop tarts or cereal), canned soup, ramen noodles in a cup, jelly sandwiches, twizzlers out of a big bag I have, Craisins, etc, etc. I don't have any set meals, aside from breakfast and dinner - I pretty much graze throughout the day.
I love pizza, but we don't usually eat it :(

Mixture of junk food and fruit and lean meat, usually just lunch and dinner, done in a cycle where I'll eat a lot for a few days and lay off so my weight hangs around 160 pounds.

Why not?  Anyway, when you go to college (away from home), you can have lots of lots of pizza for breakfast, lunch and dinner because you'll be the one who in charge of what you eat :D.

At the moment I mostly eat chinese food. It is actually quite good, although I can't eat chicken feet properly. I don't know why, I just can't do it.

Once or twice a year I go to a place that serves authentic Italian food. Expensive, but good stuff.

I can see why it's hard for you -- imagine putting some bird's feet into your mouth and start chewing...  (eeew)  However, if the feet don't like feet any more and mix with fresh colorful herbs and veggies, mmmmm... yummi...  :D

Wow, you're pretty 'slim' :D

I've not had chicken feet (maybe next time - last time I was stuffed full), but whole quail is quite nice-but-crunchy :)
