eating nothing but take out or frozen prepackaged foods and calling it a meal.
my wife was a city girl and i am a country boy so it was a pretty big reality check when we where getting to know one another and EVERYTHING in her fridge was in a box and the fresh she did have was rotten in the crisper.

i refused to eat at her place, i just couldn't do it...

thankfully ive taught her a thing or two in 11 years

I may rarely take you up on it, but I guess I find it weird if you don't say, "This stuff is delish...would you like to try it?"

May be how I was raised.
Yes I think it is strange and absolutely digusting.

There are two things which get to me. The first is chewing with your mouth open. It's disgusting, it's rude. How can adults not know how to chew with their mouth closed? I'm surprised at how often I see people do it.

Next one is kinda quirky. I just can't stand the sound of people eating. If there is background sound that drowns most of it out, I'm ok. But if it's quiet in a room full of people eating, I'll have to leave. It'll make me I'll otherwise.

What people eat dosent bother me but.
When food gets stuck in facial hair.

When people pick their food apart. I could not eat fried chicken around my sister with her little piles of skin, veins and stuff. Just eat it.

Smelling every bite before you put it in your mouth. My nephew does this. When he was a kid he once stuck the tip of a ketchup bottle up his nose trying to smell it. Very embarrasing.

Eating pizza with a fork.

Mixing all your food together. My ex bf did this.

Please dont fart at the table.

I feed my dogs from the table on occasion. I also kiss them on the mouth, but they dont stink of garlic.

Default Eating habits that turn you off

I'm mostly vegetarian who prefers to date vegetarians. I'm grossed out by most meats. However, I think I would be uncomfortable dating a vegan, also. The vegetarian lifestyle is the happy middle.

What I'm most uncomfortable with...is girls who eat like birds, and they look like birds. For several reasons I find it disturbing when skinny women eat super super healthy.
I think you just have some problems with your thinking process. There is nothing wrong with women eating healthy, and if you think otherwise, you need help. I'm turned off my bad table manners, and people eating, or talking with their mouths full. I don't enjoy dining with a picky eater, or anyone who picks through their food and sets part of it aside because it is something they don't like. I like to cook and have guests at my home often, but if you are a vegetarian, you wouldn't be welcome here. I have this to say about eating vegetarian: If God didn't want us to eat animals he wouldn't have made them out of meat! To answer your first question: "Do eating habits and food choices influence how you feel about a man or woman". I would have to say yes, I don't care to be around someone who I think is stupid.

If you go to Italy, do NOT pick up your pizza with your hands. I was 6 years old the first time I went to Italy and had no clue that I was supposed to use the knife and fork that they set on the table. My dad discreetly whispered, "Put that down NOW." LOL Though some pizza, like from Uno's, you have to eat with utensils since it's stuffed.

Feeding your dogs from the table is fine for you, it sucks to go to someones house and their dogs stare at you clinging to your every move while you eat is down right annoying as hell.

My dad feeds his dog at the table and last time I was there his dog was glued to my leg staring at me every second.....

Annoying as hell

what a perfect "out" for a guy !! ive never thought of it..

He didn't scoop it; he picked it up like it was popcorn and put it in his mouth. It was awful. Mashed potatoes on his hands, around his mouth and on his shirt. I can laugh about it now, but then, nope.
Ha! I never thought about it being an out. Maybe he wasn't enjoying the date and decided to act a fool. Well it worked!

I'd politely give them the finger. Only pansies eat their pizza with a knife and fork. Lol, just joking.
