Is it weird to eat the items on your plate separately?

I'm not a boy, I'm an asexual blob

electrogirl said she'd noticed boys do it more than girls... but I suppose asexual blobs are not exempt from boy behaviour or girl behaviour.

You wish!

You wish!

I don't wish - I wish I was a rampant stud

I had lunch today with a big group of people in the Cafe associated with our office block and it seemed to be a fairly even split, some of the girls had salads which may have been harder to separate into bits but none the less you could still work out who was combining things on their forks and who wasn't.

Why do you think that there is no boundary between eating all the items one by one and mashing them up? It is a mystery to me why you eat at all, it must be such a boring experience, eating is all about the combinations of textures and flavours in the food. If you eat in most restaurants then the chef actually tries to remove you the opportunity to eat each component separately by piling them up on the plate.

I'm a very fussy eater...and i think you experience the taste better if you seperate them than all at once.

But regarding your question, chin dildo - I like to mix and match my grub. Sometimes I'll mix it togetehr, sometimes I'll take unadulterated morsels.

I think the thing of not wanting the food to touch or mix is a bit autistic, eh. And don't they say that all boys are a bit autistic; so that might be why not mixing the food is a boy thing more than a girl thing...

I've never eaten with a man who seperates his food, and I've eaten with a lot of different people so I'd guess this is an entirely personal experience with no grounding in fact whatsoever. From my own experiences condiments and food mixing is the manly way to eat, if you're a food separtist then you're just... well... wrong.

I was under the impression that it's usually small children who eat each item separately, and this disappears gradually as your sense of taste and appreciation of complexity of taste matures.

I always separate the liver from the fava beans and the chianti.

Not weird at all.

With roast, I eat the veg first, then the Yorkshire pudding, then the meat and save the potatoes until last.

I always noticed alot of boys do this, but that might be jsut my experience.

Me too !
