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?

My sister...
The only thing I won't eat is tomatoes. If it's sliced or whole (for example in a sandwich or salad) I can't touch it, but I'm fine with them if they're part of a sauce, a soup, whatever. I did try one last year to see if it was just a childhood thing, but I was almost sick, so I guess not...
My sister, on the other hand, has a mile-long list of foods she won't touch, including bananas, pineapples, sweetcorn, fish (of any sort), prawns, brocolli, cauliflower, and about a million and one other foods which I like. This would cause many problems when I was still living at home, as we wouldn't be able to have anything nice, as 'your sister won't eat that' So?? If she doesn't want it, she doesn't have to eat it! I have found that when people are hungry enough, they'll eat anything! She would have eaten it eventually!
To this day, I'm still not entirely sure what she will actually eat, as the list also changes from year to year:
ME: "Do you want an apple?"
SIS: "No! I hate apples!
ME: "But... you liked them last year?"
SIS: "No, I've always hated them!"
ME: "They used to be your favorite fruit!"
SIS: "... well.... um... not any more!"
Strangely, one of the few things she will eat is tomatoes...
