Picky EatersAn 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?

Three thingsThere's only three things I've never been able to keep in my mouth:
1) Tongue (in China).
2) Lung (in China).
3) Anything cooked by my mother (in my entire youth).
On balance, any internal organ is preferable to my mother's speciality of indistinguishable carbonised matter with a frozen centre and all of the artificial additives that microwaving/baking hasn't managed to kill. She could turn gold into shit could mummy dearest. It's an alchemy only she has. I learned to cook when I was 16.
Saturday's lunch: scallops in a white wine and double-cream sauce with leeks, musrooms and two cheeses (mature brie and parmesan) - all served with penne pasta. And I ate it with my elbows on the table and my my mouth open, mum ...
