Must have a beverage while eating (I tend to use straws a lot in public, since that allows me to leave the glass sitting on the table and cuts down the spillage. Yes, I’m a klutz). I also do the “consume liquid part of soup, then eat solids” thing someone mentioned.

I NEVER heard the term “dipping” until later in my highschool years when we started getting the ol’ tobacky edumacation.

And yeah, the spit bottles/cups are nasty. I’ve heard more than my share of stories of somebody picking up a bottle that they thought had some coke left in it and it was snuff spit. God that just makes me shudder.

Anyway as far as weird food habits go…well, I have a hard time identifying my own but I’m sure others could tell you! I do like to put mayonnaise on all kinds of things…hamburgers, hot dogs, corn dogs, it just tastes so good on them.

One thing I know may be a bit weird is that I have a VERY hard time drinking a beverage out of a cup that has been sitting out for some time. I think this habit developed when I was younger…I picked up a cup that had been sitting out for an hour or two with some tea in it and happened to look at it and I could see all the dust and crap floating on the surface. Ever since then, if a cup sits out unattended for more than a half hour, I have a strong tendency to dump it out and refill it.

Sandwiches are sliced parallel to the edges, to make two rectangles; absolutely no diagonals; triangular sandwiches will scrape the roof of your mouth.
