Like all the broccoli! Hee hee. martymankins – That is funny – I always pick the favorite things out of a pasta dish first! Like all the broccoli! Hee hee.

Although it depends on what it is and if it gets cold too fast and isn't very good cold. Most seafood items that are mixed in with pasta or noodles I save until the end, but they normally stay warm until I've finished what they are surrounded by. For the most part, yes.

I rarely move around the plate, sampling, unless I have A LOT on there! DeAnne – I do that too – eat all of my food in little groups.

I just so happen to be the oldest and our family wasn't large. I have noticed that my youngest daughter always saves her favorite for last and the oldest too, so I'm wondering how much validity there is to that study. but then I guess that if you're writing a book you need to pick an angle and stick to it (even if you just did a really small survey and are kinda wrong) or maybe not my unusual habit (or maybe not unusual) is that I will sometimes eat all of something before moving on to the next item.

I think so too. That is just too broad of a conclusion! marissa - So you know how hard it is to reprogram and eat slower now that you are older! I am still struggling with that. When my younger sister (the youngest) was in town, I noticed she eats super fast, and I wonder if it is because of that. beth - I didn't even think of that - eating fast so that you can tend to the kids! :) Well, don't feel bad, I am a fast eater too! I wish I was more like your friend - I hate finishing first! tori – I don’t think ANYTHING is bizarre with it comes to eating habits! ;)

I don't really think about it, but I know that I usually eat very fast. I think this is a trait of motherhood.....I want to finish before I get interrupted and need to get up and get something for someone who can't otherwise get it for themselves. This is becoming less of a problem as my kids are getting so big and independent, but the habit still takes over. I'm a fast eater, in no particular order. I do have a friend who eats VERY SLOW because she can't stand to be at a table and to have finished her food and to have others eating around her. I don’t even KNOW!

I termed my parents the vultures because they went after my food faster than I did! :) But now that I'm older and it's just me and my boyfriend at the table, I eat much slower and I do, indeed, save my favorite foods for last!

Or at least I save a bite of it to be last so I can take it with me. I am the youngest in a small family so I think someone needs to re-reserach! I eat my favorite thing last.

I didn't even think of that. But it really, really makes sense. A lot of my meals are so calculated that I know I can eat my favorite thing last and it will still fit in my daily calorie range, but I didn't even think about the fact that I might not be hungry for it! Odie - I think that I eat like that - a bit of this and that - when I am out at restaurants or having a big holiday meal with my family. But at home, I just stick to my dishes, in order! I wish I was going back for seconds on veggies. I do sometimes, but because I'm not having dessert and am still hungry! drgngrl - Yup, me too. I thought more people would say that. Hmmm.... sizzle - Hmm. Do the clockwise people put things in a certain order then? Interesting. CourtneyInControl - That is so interesting! I wonder where you developed the habit to do that! This all makes me think I need to vary it up a bit when I am eating. I just like to eat my veggies first and focus on my carbs, dammit ;) diane - More and more, you sound like the perfect cook to me! I love it when everything is done at the same time too ;) It's hard to coordinate though. pipnaymama - Great, I'll check it out! teeni - I do love the lingering flavor of something good. When we eat out then drive home, Steven often has a piece of gum right away in the car. He usually asks me if I want a piece, but I always so no, so I can keep enjoying the flavor ;) suze – Gosh.
