If it's looking at me, I'm not eating it. Fish with the eyes still on are wayyy far from me. Same thing for shrimps and lobsters. although I eat the lobsters, but only if they are facing away from me.

my brother has a radar for bell peppers. even if it's the tiniest piece hidden in the dish (like we added one piece after it was cooked) he'll find it, take it out of his mouth and throw a fit.

One of my exboyfriends was terrified of milk, in the way that he'd drink his glass straight up; never letting it go in the glass after a sip...because he was disgusted by the milk sliding on the sides of the glass. He said he could see his saliva in the glass and it threw him off.

I recently started cooking vegetarian meals for other people than myself (my boyfriend suddenly was interested yay!) anyway...
I tried making a creamy pasta dish with lots of vegetables. First time in my life trying to make cream out of tofu...turns out I didn't buy the right kind of tofu, so when trying to get the right consistency, the tofu creamed only so much, leaving little parts and bits in the cream... My vegetables were a little undercooked and turns out the curry I used was WAY too strong for the recipe. My boyfriend, always willing to please, ate it all but even I couldn't! We ended up ordering pizza.
Another one was when I tried making sautéed vegetables over an old oven my dad had gotten from a friend. I think it was older than both my parents together. In any case I pour some oil in the pan and start sautéing my vegetables just like my dad told me to...and then... some oil got in the burner I think...MAJOR flames, my vegetables catch fire as well as the pan so I chuck the pan in the snow outside, pour some flour on the burner and look at the charred mess and the heavy smoke. My little brother was staring at me with the phone in his hand: Do I have to call the firemen?
My parents still have a hard time letting me near the oven, even if after 4 years of this happening, I've been a very good cook!
