Picky Eaters Can Die (Ex: Me)

I’m not very picky. I like all sorts of food, and I am willing to try new things. But I am certainly indecisive. It’s to the point where I’m not even allowed to make a decision at some restaurants, I just have one meal at each place that I get. At White Spot, I always have a Bacon Cheddar Burger, at the Green Olive I always have Mare E Monte pasta, etc etc. It’s a sad, but necessary measure, to ensure my dining companions do not murder me. :)

I’m a picky eater too - so much so that there are usually only a few items on restaurant menus that I’m willing to eat. When I arrive at a restaurant, I glance over the menu quickly eliminating the 80-90% of it that I “can’t” eat due to my pickiness. Then, I squander five more minutes on deciding between the 2-5 items I’ve deemed acceptable.

I am not a picky eater AT ALL...I almost always like the sound of everything on the menu, so mine is more a problem of too much choice, rather than not enough choice.

What I’ve found works well for me, is to simply check out what other people are eating (e.g. the diners at other tables close to me), and just say “I’ll have what they’re having” if it looks good…

I agree with Amanda’s comment- I’m no picky eater, I just can’t decide on what to order! lol

I did that last night. I kinda sat there at the table and said to myself, “These all look good, I want it all!” haha

Haha.  If I go to a restaurant I’ve been to before, I know what I’m going to order before I even get there, but I still spend 439587 minutes looking at the menu just to pretend I might get something different.  But it never happens. :P

I’m a really picky eater, too!  When I go to a restaurant I always know in advance that I am going to order one of a few things: breakfast, something chicken based, or a fish meal.  That’s it.  Every single time.  :)

I’m a really picky eater too, although I don’t take long in deciding what I want to eat. I just don’t like my food to be too ‘fancy’. Plain and normal is fine for me.

lol, I’m picky too. But, I know what I like. So it’s easy for my to go through menus quickly.

I’m a very picky eater as well, but I know exactly what I want, so it saves time.  The only thing is that I’m scared to try new stuff.

I’m a very picky/fussy eater. You can imagine how it’ll be on a dinner date? Totally unromantic, that’s what. ;_; I usually make my friends order for me, or choose something well in the “safe” boundary if I don’t trust them. :3

I am picky eater, plus I can’t decide what I want to eat even if I’m given only options of things I like. That rarely happens though… I usually don’t like absolutely anything that’s on the menu.
I always get all excited when I’m going to eat out, only to remember once I’m there with the menu on my hands that I rarely find anything I like to order. The last time I went to a fancy restaurant with my dad and his fiancé I was all happy until I got there. I left really angry because everything they served was specially disgusting. And it was all made of meat (I don’t eat meat :P)… they had things like “meat stuff with fish”, “fish stuffed with meat”, “fish stuffed with potatoes” “potatoes stuffed with meat”. I wanted to puke. Plus they had a huge, disgusting, stinky dead lobster in a fish tank next to our table.

*sobs*

It always takes me a long time to choose what I want to eat for dinner as well. I wouldn’t say that I’m a picky eater per se, but I’m just way too indecisive. I’m always afraid that I’m going to spend my money on something that is nasty :P.

When I eat out, it can only be in an Italian restaurant. I shall have garlic bread for a start if applicable, and a plain margherita pizza for the main meal.

I can’t eat anywhere else due to my food issues. :(

You went to Applebee’s and got a GRILLED CHEESE??? As “Rick James” would say—“SLAP!!”

I am NOT a picky eater… at all. I mean, there *are* some things that I just cannot bring myself to eat, like octopus or calamari (or most seafood, really), but I love trying new things! The problem usually lies on how much it costs. Whenever I go out to a restaurant it’s usually because I got invited so I don’t want to order something *too* costly and feel bad afterwards.

I’m pretty picky myself. Actually, it probably has more to do with my indecisiveness. Sometimes it takes more than 10 minutes that figure out what I want. I even make a fuss over what I’m going to have to drink.

I’m a picky eater too, but when it comes to restaurants, I always get a cheeseburger and fries :3

While I’m not a picky eater at all, I do have the same issue as far as taking forever to order.  I’d probably eat just about anything on any menu handed to me, but I’m picky when it comes to what I really want at the moment.  I weigh my options, leaving out the calories and carbs, and usually get it pinned down to two or three things.  Then I’m stuck playing “eenie, meenie, miney, moe”, in which case I’m not always sure of the selection.  It takes me forever but everyone I ever eat with knows this and they are stuck dealing with it.  I think the waitress coming back every 3 seconds to ask if I’ve decided yet pressures me more then the people I’m dining with.
