After a few days of paying attention to what I eat (Cos I'm fasting -_- not dieting), I've come to a few conclusions.
Of course the first and no. rule about food for me is - No Chili. Pepper, curry (relatively) are fine... but the minute I taste the slightest bit of chili, trust me. I'd Know. Even if you were to use chili only to for garnishing or decorating, I'd still stay far far away from the dish.
I really don't like tomatoes. I know that they are great for me, good for the skin etc etc... but I REALLY don't like them. I would eat them, but it doesn't mean I like them.
I don't take sauces. I do take gravy, but NOT sauces like ketchup and mayonaise. I'm fine with all the seasonings, especially the Chinese ones.
I'm scared of eating whole fish cos I'm constantly wondering when I'm going to choke on a bone. I also don't like fish skin, I keep thinking I'm going to find a fish scale. And I view fishballs and fishcakes suspiciously.
I don't really eat meat. Seriously. No cravings there. My friend An_ will laugh, cos she stays away from red meat. And I kept ribbing her about it when she was on visit here. Like buying venison hor fun, and talking to the poor dead deer. bwahahaha... The only reason I eat is, cause in SG, you're considered vegetarian if you don't eat meat, and everyone expects you to at least eat chicken.
The one thing I do like is FRIED food. Hiyoh... Seriously, the availability of that in SG is incredible. Everywhere I look, something's fried. I'm not just talking about the usual fast food joints, like fish and chips or Macs. But things you find in the hawker centres: Yong tau foo, fried fish soup, cheap jap food... etc
Of course, when I'm suppose to stay away from meat (it's no big deal) and other delicacies (like snacks and FRIED food), daily living is quite a challenge...
I do like vegetables! Especially Big Green Leafy ones. And I find Broccoli cute.
I don't, however, eat ladies fingers (the name alone is gross). I don't like bitter gourd and I think that purple plant thing (think it's spelled brine jaw?) is weird. I don't particularly fancy carrots, but would eat it.
Okies, I'd better end off here and go back to eating my dad's noodles. It's stir fried with... shudder* Tomatoes!
