Other peoples eating habits

[EvianBaby]

Why does anyone care what anyone else eats and drinks?

I just don't understand why people concern themselves so much with the acts of complete strangers that have no effect on them whatsoever.

[cazzz1975]

I can understand taking a human interest in other people's eating habits, we tend to measure ourselves against others. I dont understand how other peoples eating/drinking habits would upset a stranger though unless there was a knock on effect (drunkenness, abuse, morbid obesity, anorexia ect)

[EvianBaby]

I could see why those examples might bother some people, but what I mean is why would anyone care whether I or anybody eats or doesn't eat breakfast. Or enjoys a nice hot cup of coffee while walking to work.

Shurrrup stop wasting time posting and make your breakfast.

[EvianBaby]

No! I already had breakfast. It was some of the Mars Bar cake I bought to work for the guys.

[Mick-Talbot]

Why you telling me what you had ?
I'm not interested ;0)

[EvianBaby]

You must be!

[snags]

There seems to be a fascination for knowing what others eat generally, not just breakfast, judging by the number of 'what's for dinner/lunch' threads that appear regularly on AB.

[Mick-Talbot]

Can I get back to you later on that , snags?

I'm still deciding on breakfast........ (It won't be one of those crappy mars things)

[snags]

I said a 'general interested: personally I couldn't give a flump what you will be eating today...

[snags]

I meant 'general interest'... put it down to low blood sugar levels as I haven't had my shredded wheat yet.

I like knowing what other people eat! I had 2 little banana's this morning but I may have some scrambled egg later

[Mick-Talbot]

But I want to

[rockyracoon]

It is a bit odd really, it seems to really rub some people up the wrong way :) I do like the 'what's for dinner' threads as they give me ideas.

[EvianBaby]

Crappy mars bar things? How very dare you!

Please let me know what you decide to have so I can judge you.

[Mick-Talbot]

Do you prefer them greenish or brownish, Caz?

I like them greenish, they get a bit dry when left too long.

[EvianBaby]

I don't mean those 'what's for lunch/dinner/etc/' threads. That's just people who like talking about foot.

I mean people who get wound up by what others eat/drink. Just like I am with my own stupid thread.

[EvianBaby]

Like talking about FOOT?

eeuugghhhhhhh.

[Mick-Talbot]

Please let me know what you decide to have so I can judge you.




No pressure then :0/

[cazzz1975]

I like them yellow with a bit of green, they are nice and firm. I prefer a lot of my fruit refrigerated so the coldness jars my teeth :)

[Mick-Talbot]

I like refrigerated carrots but a not so keen on them at room temp.....how interesting is that?
