That&#8217;s my sister. Although, Justin would disagree and throw me in the same crowd as picky eaters like my sister. There are some flavors I just can&#8217;t stand. Some textures that are horrid. And probably the most frustrating thing for Justin, some foods I won&#8217;t eat because the name grosses me out. <\/p>\n<p>For example, I hate cilantro. HATE the smell as much as the taste. Apparently, I&#8217;m not alone:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/whoknew.news.yahoo.com\/?nc&amp;vid=25107474\">http:\/\/whoknew.news.yahoo.com\/?nc&amp;vid=25107474<\/a><\/p>\n<p>When Justin eats anything with cilantro, I can smell it on his breath and I keep my distance. Same thing goes for garlic &#8211; although I love garlic, just not cuddling next to someone who reeks of it. <\/p>\n<p>Chewing peas is like sandy dirt. The texture just makes me gag. The flavor doesn&#8217;t help either. Peas have a very earthy taste (dirt) so I don&#8217;t even bother with them anymore. <\/p>\n<p>Greek yogurt. Nope, don&#8217;t like the word &#8220;Greek&#8221; in food. Although, I like Greek food, just not &#8220;Greek&#8221; something. Hummus, yes! Falafal, yes! Baklava, yes! Greek yogurt, no!<\/p>\n<p>I tried Clotted Cream while I was in England. I was VERY hesitant at first, but I really wanted to try it. The word &#8220;clotted&#8221; has got to be the grossest word ever associated with food. Just sounds like a blood clot and who the hell wants to eat that?! <\/p>\n<p>I tried it and it was THE.BEST.CREAM.EVER! <\/p>\n<p>But I still hate the name.<\/p>\n<p>This one is straight ignorance: Butterscotch. I had no idea it was basically caramel, in liquid form! Oh so yummy.<\/p>\n<p>Justin doesn&#8217;t think I try many new things, but I really do. They just aren&#8217;t as obvious to him &#8211; he eats everything. I&#8217;m just now trying butterscotch, that&#8217;s like kids play in terms of sampling new foods. One day I hope to try more, but for now, I&#8217;ve grown past scraping the sauce off pizza (I&#8217;ll still eat it with sauce), but I prefer no sauce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m not a picky eater.
