The Struggle of a REAL Picky Eater

No, I don't eat pizza.

The Struggle of a REAL Picky Eater
Odyssey

So you probably have seen a lot of articles and listicles about picky eaters and the foods that are what they consider “safe,” like chicken nuggets and pizza. Well, I fall into that extremely rare category where I can’t even relate to a picky eater article because there are things on there that I don’t eat. Believe it or not, I don't eat a lot of the things that you think everyone eats.

1. Cheese

Literally, no cheese at all; not on pizza, not in a salad, not anywhere. I don't even eat cheesecake or cream cheese, and probably never will. I'm so crazy that even if I peel the cheese off a burger, if there is a little piece stuck on the bun, I will refuse to eat it.

2. Milk

No, not even in cereal or coffee. Yes, this includes creamer, half and half, and all that other stuff

3. Pizza

You probably think I'm not human, but I honestly don't like pizza, mostly due to the cheese. If I have to eat pizza, the cheese is taken off (You would be surprised how many people are highly offended when you remove your cheese from your pizza).

4. Mac and Cheese

The cheese just ruins the mac, you know what I mean (No, I don't even eat the fake stuff like Kraft, either)?

5. Condiments

No creamy condiments, only ketchup on fries and olive oil and balsamic vinegar on salads. Something about thick textures freaks me out (probably because I lowkey know that there is milk or cream in it).

Yes, there are plenty of other things I don't eat, which keeps me in this extremely picky eater category. But trust me, I know there has to be people like me out there somewhere. So this this is written for you, the people who take the cheese off their pizza and don’t like the jelly on their peanut butter sandwiches.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
