I am eating a bagel, croissant, and kiwi for lunch. Now, all three are on separate plates because OMG MY FOOD CANNOT TOUCH. But I love to take a bite of all three and let the flavors mix in my mouth. BUT NOT IN MY HAND. Anyone else eat this way?
Gunn: You ready? Fred: Is no an acceptable answer?

What is even happening?
Teppy, did you hear about the Illuminati at the FAC, or had you known about them, prior? I first heard of them in college, from an American girl who'd been raised in Germany, and whose stories about her mom always made the mom sound like a potential FAC member.

Nora got an A and Gloomcookie got a B
I got a B in my microeconomics class. Quite pleased - had fully expected a C.

Food should not touch other food. I go through a lot of plates at buffets because I don't put things in piles leaning on each other.

I'm not, like, excessively compulsive about it, but the touching should be MINIMAL. Mostly, I'm just amused by the fact that I won't let food mix until it gets into my mouth.

My reason for food not touching is that if you put gravy or sauce on something of a fairly crunchy or resistant texture, then it gets soggy. I'll dip my food, thank you. Also, I despise the warm lettuce you get when they put it on a hamburger.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I knew about them prior. I'm not sure when I first heard of them -- either high school or college. It's the kind of random arcane useless* shit that I tend to know.

See, but that's where you lose me. I don't like my food touch (although I don't actually put them on separate plates), but the wisdom I was always given was, "It's all going to the same place!"
And I always said, "So? It's how it tastes going down."
Some things can mix. Turkey and stuffing, for instance. Ham and eggs. Most other things? All the way separate.
