A stolen idea and other confessions

A few days ago, my friend Brandy blogged about her food confessions. Namely the things she likes or doesn’t like that other people might think are gross or weird. And today being today and me needing something light and fun to write about, I thought I’d just steal her idea and run with it.

Think of it as a compliment, Brandy, rather than stealing. . .

Here we go:

• I don’t like most fruit. I won’t eat apples unless they’re peeled and cooked in a pie or a skillet full of butter, sugar, and cinnamon. I don’t like oranges because of the stringy parts. Grapes burst in my mouth, and I don’t like it. Berries do the same thing. Strawberries have seeds. Watermelon is mushy. Don’t mock me for this. It’s not just because I haven’t tried these things since I was little. I honestly do not like them.

• I am in love with those cheese danish things you can get in the bakery section of the grocery store or at—wait for it—a convenience store. I’ve made all kinds of recipes for it and I still like that kind best!

• I really do like Kraft mac and cheese out of the blue box. I don’t know that I like it better than homemade, but homemade baked mac and cheese often gets too dry and the homemade stove top I’ve made is hit or miss.

• My comfort meal is a grilled cheese sandwich and a glass of chocolate milk.

• I like to mix mashed potatoes and corn together.

• I hate nutmeg. With a passion.

• I have a thing for casseroles. Especially if they involve any sort of “cream of” soup.

• I don’t like cold cuts much at all. I especially hate ham cold cuts and if you fix me a ham sandwich, I’m probably not going to eat it.

• I don’t like French’s yellow mustard, but I like spicy brown mustards.
