Tracey
My friend Tracey came to visit me while I was living in Japan. She refused to leave the house unless I was with her (so when I went to work, she stayed inside and watched Japanese television) and refused to try any Japanese food, especially sushi. So I cooked her a pasta dish and she complained about it and said she only eats meat and two veg dinners. She wasn't joking. Even her wedding breakfast was roast chicken, potatoes and veg.

(I had more luck with the karaoke though; she said she would never, ever do it, but after one particularly hard drinking session, I saw her on stage, with beer all down her front, singing. What's more, she had chosen a Japanese song and was making up the words (e.g. ching pung wing wong) at the top of her voice while some Japanese girls cheered and clapped. They probably thought she was singing the Chinese version.)
