I'm I really conceited and if so is that a terrible trait to have? (male, Chinese)

It's been a long while since being absent from this site... anyways....
It was my male childhood friend (let's call him J) that recently told me I'm like that sometimes or a bit greedy.
I think this was after how once him and some co-workers were eating breakfast and said I can joined in. I was straight forward saying I don't eat eggs stained with sausage and how I don't like anything. Or the time someone said how come I go for the cheaper menu at my work instead of buying expensive chinese food.. and I said ''Because I simply don't... I'm into complicated dishes not simple ones I freely eat at home.
Or how J stated explaining the places he goes eating. I just was straight forward about how crappy & unhealthy it is and how I only go on specific places (if I recalled, I kinda found it somewhat funny when he told me those places so I laughed a bit)... then went on explaining that usually foods that cost more are better in quality. The truth is he got sick a couple days ago from eating junk.
Honestly there are only 2 things I'm very picky on.
1) Food... I'll go out of my way to try different plates not many eat which is more expensive but I don't care
2) When it comes to Sneakers... I only like sketchers, new balance, reebox, nike, or puma... not some cheap sneaker with no brand on it (ex: Payless Shoes store... unless I was terribly poor)
Good to see a post that isn't about some kind of revenge.
You like what you like, nothing wrong with that.
She likes what she likes but she has no tact.
Sunflower, the world doesn't give a rat's arse what you like. Seriously. If you can't say something nice, or you can't express your tastes in a way that is not snotty, condescending, insulting, hurtful, or offensive to others, shut up.
Oh, was that tactless of me? Tsk. I thought I was being straightforward and direct.

Yeah, I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt, but you're right.
If your friend feels like he can't say anything (like mentioning where he likes to eat) without you interjecting on how "crappy" his choices are, it's understandable that it would bother him. He's an adult and he's entitled to make his own choices in life, regardless of whether you approve or not. You're entitled to be picky about certain things in your own life... but laughing at people for making different choices and blurting out how beneath you their choices are is rude, snobby, and tactless. You need to realize that sometimes, unless someone ASKS for your opinion, it's unwelcome.

To be fair, there's no taste buds in your stomach. She's entitled to not want certain foods mixed together on her plate because it does alter the flavor... I just don't see why she felt the need to inform everyone else of it.
I echo what everyone said. You're like Khloe Kardashian, you have no filter and say whatever's on your mind even if it makes you look like a fool and hurts someone else. If I was him, I'd tell you "Until you buy my wardrobe, shove it. I like what I like. Period."
