How do you eat your food?

I have always eaten one food type on my plate at a time, from least appealling to most appealling. Obviously, I save my cheesecake for last. I hate mixing things, unless it is mixed in with mashed potatoes. And I hate it when different things touch each other. A college buddy referred to my style of eating as, "eating in compartments".

But enough about me... How 'bout you?
 
Some what the same here. Don't like stuff touching each other. But I'll usually mix the order up a bit, one thing that is somewhat appealling, then something that isn't that good, Definatly save the best for last tho.
 
mix 'em!
i like the flavors blending together in unique new ways, not boring bite after bite of the same thing, then another thing, then another thing.
 
Kinda what Jim said.I eat a little of every thing,but don't mix it together.

of course, I don't mix things like ice cream and tacos (unless you count a waffle with ice cream in the middle

) just things like beans and rice, i mix the ice cream that has like swirls in it, etc. Even cakes... mush it until you have a paste (sometimes i need to add some milk.. if it's not 3-milk cake YUM) and it tastes great.
 
I dive right in with wild abandon, and eat it all!!! Always save the dessert for last though.
 
I don't like things touching either, unless they're ment to be touching
 
If you guys ever had to survive in the wilderness, you would starve to death.
 
Not me! I eat everything, even grubs! UMM-mm GOOD!!!!

Eating in Compartments is good.

I eat one thing, then move to another. No particular order as far as goodness/most appealing goes. And, if I don't finish a particular thing before moving on to another, I won't come back to it.

I do the EXACT same thing at jimscotscoot. My grandparents think I'm so freaking weird because I eat one thing at a time.. all of this, then all of that, then all of that. I don't switch around or mix. Appatently a rare few other people in this family do that as well.. my uncle Scott and my great-aunt Sue. And I save the best for last every time, unless the best is gonna get cold a whole lot faster than the other stuff. And I always save meat for last. Don't know why.

It depends on the meal... If I got some catfish w/ candied yams and green beans the yams and greeen beans are most likely gonna get mixed up. Pinto beans and mac and cheese get mixed. My over easy eggs always get wrapped aaround my sausage or bacon (and sometimes are piled on top of my toast). Being a chef I'm always looking for different flavor combos.

Now here's one combo I just HAVE TO try - Keylime Cheesecake. I just saw that on advertised at Borders Bookstore. With coffee, it's $3.99. Yum!

One thing I can't stand is maple flavored sausages! I know someone came up wit that to mimic the syrup getting into them, via pancakes or French toast, but that's exactly what I try to avoid!

Yup, meat is last, unless there is dessert.

Do you put sason or sofrito in your food?

My bad. I thought you were Hispanic. We have had those as well as pestolillos. I like to use something called adobo in beans and rice.

I eat a bite of this, a spoon full of that, a bite of that and take a swig of cold Beck's beer...add more salt, pepper, garlic and hot salsa to everything and repeat until it is all finished.  I then start on my hot fudge brownie with 'nella ice cream and wash it down with a glass of milk.

Thought for the day;
There is room for all of God's little little creatures...right next to the mashed potatoes.
