When you eat dinner and have 3 favorite foods on your plate, do you eat all 3 randomly in no special order?

Question

Or, do you eat each one of the three foods individually until it's gone? If that's the case, do you save your favorite of the three foods to eat first or last? For example, the other night I had Ribeye Steak with steamed broccoli and sweet potato fries. I took turns eating all three randomly but I have to admit I at least saved the last bite to be the sweet potato fries since they were my favorite of the three. But, I have a friend that would eat all the broccoli first, steak second, and then save all of the sweet potato fries for last. What do you do?

Answer 1

I usually eat them all randomly in no special order. I will never eat all of one first before even starting on either of the others.

But I always save best for last.

Answer 2

the main thing is i need to make sure there is enough starch(mostly rice for me) to last with the amount of other things on the plate.... rice has to be the last thing i eat! don't ask me why....

Answer 3

i just chow it down

Answer 4

i eat it in random order...thats just because i can't decide on what i like best and what tastes the best..

Answer 5

I eat them all randomly, especially if I'm really hungry!

Answer 6

I generally eat all of one item, all of the other . . . what the items are and who is around depends on how I eat them.  I eat the items that get cold fast first, usually that means noodles or potatoes.  Or, I'll eat my least favorite first to get it over with and save my favorite for last.  That didn't work when I was growing up and visiting Aunt Stella because she'd just plop more on my plate as soon as I was done.  Around her, I learned to 'savor' food I didn't like and leave some left over.  Around Aunt Nancy I don't eat at all or else I eat little bites because when she thinks a person is eating too much she keeps asking them questions as soon as they put food into their mouth or makes comments on how they're 'really packing it in'.

Answer 7

I eat very carefully, there is serious danger that i have no space for the last meal :)

Answer 8

if im hungry i just go to town.

Answer 9

I usually take a few bites of each, but then I save my favorite for "my last perfect bite."  It probably doesn't make sense, because I should eat what I like first so I don't get full, but I always find myself doing it.

Answer 10

i really don't think about what order i eat my food in. i just eat it.

=3

Answer 11

i do the same thing.  It I have a baked potato on the plate I always eat that first then the veggie then the meat.  

Answer 12

I eat a bit of each, and when I only have a little of everything left I eat it all in one go.

Answer 13

I've done it both ways..
