Honestly, I will forever be a kid at heart. I mean that with everything I do, but I mean that especially when it comes to my taste in food. I have no idea what it is, but I have always been a picky eater that could live my entire life eating off of a kids menu.
My favorite foods consist of pizza, french fries, steak, basic salads, chicken fingers (my all time favorite), bread, pasta, chinese food and definitely more that I just can't think of. Oh, I also have the largest sweet tooth in the world. I could and do eat candy every day and I am always confused as to how I don't have a cavity. I even said that to my dentist!
Wow okay it really sounds like I am 6 years old at this point. I have no shame! I have always been so picky when it comes to food and my friends and family always make fun of me for it. I mean, my little cousins are eating lobster and fish and I will be sitting next to them eating pasta and fries. I always play along with the jokes, though. I find it funny and love that one of my all time favorite foods is chicken fingers!
The beginning of college was pretty rough for me because I would be eating the most unhealthy foods every single day. I had the option to eat vegetables and other healthy things, but I just chose not to. However, I have definitely opened myself up more to new foods, and I am always so proud of myself when I try new foods!
I am one of those people who will order a salad, and ask for half of it to be taken off. Or, I will order the meal how it is and then I take it off myself. It is always so amusing to my friends (not my mom though, haha). However, what is pretty weird to me is that some of the things I eat, other people say to me, "how do you eat that". For example, I love beets, and I love broccoli. I don't think I have met one person who has liked beets before. I also love ketchup with rice and eggs. But.. I don't like sushi.. Or many other foods. It is very strange, but perfectly describes the life of a picky eater!
Ok ok, I do love all food and I have definitely been opening up my palate now that I am in college, but deep down, my favorites will always be the most simple, yet the most amazing kinds of food. I definitely see myself being 60 years old and still ordering chicken fingers at a restaurant. I'm perfectly okay with that though.. Because first of all, they are just so damn good! And second of all, it is what makes me, me!
