I have to keep water to hand all the time because I can't always swallow properly if something is too dry. It's one reason we eat a lot of soups, casseroles or wet dishes. Its easier for me to swallow. I can't for the life of me eat dry biscuits or dry toast or take tablets without fluid.
I'm a vegetarian, not vegan. The wines I drink which are fined (and many are not fined) mostly use either egg white or calcium carbonate from sea shells, both of which are in my comfort zone.
Me neither, and I honestly don`t believe I´m going to sod around the supermarket wringing my hands looking for something
I'm aware you are vegetarian. I was too from the age of 11 until my dairy allergy developed. Barnivore covers vegetarian as well.
My DH does this, and almost ever meal I ask him, "why are you not eating xyz on your plate, don't you like it?" His reply is the same every time, "I eat one thing at a time" ... he has major OCD... we joke between us that he has OCPD, not sure why, just for fun... I usually don't mind his quirks, that's him.
That's me! A little of everything in one bit. Ooh, and Chicken Fried Steak ... damnit all! I haven't had that in a while ... I like Green Beans with it, but I'll take Fried Okra tooMy mom is just the opposite. She goes around the plate eating one bite of each thing at a time. If she runs out of one item with several bites of everything else left, she will get more of that one item, if she can. Everything has to be even.
As for me, I like putting together the "perfect bite." If I have chicken fried steak, I get a piece of the steak, some mashed potatoes, and a piece of fried okra on my fork. Then I dip it in white gravy and have "the perfect bite."
