This is a question Picky Eaters

An old, old friend of mine will not eat/drink any hot liquid. Tea, coffee, soup etc do not pass his lips.

Which would be odd enough if he wasn't in the Army. He managed to survive a tour of duty in the Serbian mountains in winter without a brew.

Who's the pickiest eater you know? How annoying is it? Is it you?

Food-based wrongness
When I was a youngster, i was an incredibly picky eater an could throw up at the drop of a hat. One such occasion was at a family dinner party, when I projectile vomitted all over the tablecloth, because I caught a whiff of a jacket potato. My dad managed to catch a good portion of it in his hand, but the overspill spoilt the table decoration somewhat. Mum was unimpressed, but I was only 4 and it probably gave them something to talk about.

I can eat jacket potatoes now, but only if i have cooked them - the same with chips, as if I get a hard one I will just vurp.

I have never been able to eat cold egg, I onced ralphed at a kids party as a child, as I saw someone eating a scotch egg. I would rather eat my own face than entertain the idea of an egg mayo sandwich even now. People tend to think that's pretty odd, but just the sight of someone tucking into a cold-egg based product gets the vom creeping up my oesophagus.

Thirdly I still cannot stand the jelly in porkpies, I wish someone would create a porkpie without the jelly, as it is just horrendous. I know it's there for a very good reason, but it makes my stomach churn just to think about it.

Finally, I would not eat sandwiches made by anyone except my mum until i was about 15, as I was really concerned about germs. I was a bit of an OCD freak and would actually be sick if anyone offered me a sandwich, incase it had got germs in it during the preparation process. I very rarely eat sandwiches now ans still love my mum's sandwiches the best of all.

Jesus I didn't realise I was such a weirdo, maybe I should get some help.

Apologies for the girth.
