How you picked your screen name is what I am curious about, picky.

so this thread is almost perfectly split.
Who's picky? NTs or SFs? Or is it evenly spread?
How can you not like cinnamon?
If someone says "mmm this is good, what's in it?" The answer always is: cinnamon
Maybe I will
I will do that but I can tell you right now how it will look like, it will be me with a big delighted smile on my face. That's what!
really, raw cinnamon? it's wonderful in small doses with butter and sugar in something, but alone it's pretty bitter. hmmm, ok.
it's like cocoa. i remember as a kid thinking it was sweet chocolate in my mom's cupboard and scooping it out to eat it and spat so hard and screamed and washed my mouth out. that is bitter stuff without the sugar to tone it down. my kids have done the same darn thing. :)
I think maybe being poor and not being to afford as much food/eat as much food has helped me to appreciate and love ALL food. :D

I have to much to live for! :(Quote:
Legend holds that it is impossible to eat a tablespoon of powdered cinnamon without choking or vomiting. This has prompted the circulation of a large number of dead daredevils on the internet. Cinnamon is a strong desiccant, which resists swallowing, instead causing an irritating dry layer to form on the tongue, pharynx, and esophagus. The excess cinnamon remains in fine powder form and is usually inhaled into the lungs, where it causes irritation and choking.
i'm awfully picky. my mother used to worry that my pickiness might kill me.
i used to be very selective, but that's not so much true now. largely i sort of have a limited palate now because i mostly buy fairly healthy but cheaply and rarely see reason to experiment particularly often.
Foods I don't like:
fruits
very sweet desserts
sweet and sour anything
really authentic chinese food
peanut butter
pine nuts
large chunks of garlic
jello
tapioca pudding
blue cheese
goat cheese
yogurt
spam
wtf, that's like half my diet, pinkcanary. nevermind, perhaps i'm not so picky. i've occasionally seen new dishes that turn my stomach on no reasonable basis whatsoever, just that they look strange or something. like i remember once at a lebanese restaurant there was some bizarre yogurt-based dip that was nearly impossible for me to eat for some reason. and once i nearly gagged on fatty tuna. i have no idea how i managed to actually eat it.
I like everything. Not always super fond of various questionable casseroles. But otherwise, I like to eat and I'll try anything new. But I'm not alpha. :(
