Picky EatersAn old, old friend of mine will not eat/drink any hot liquid. Tea, coffee, soup etc do not pass his lips.
Which would be odd enough if he wasn't in the Army. He managed to survive a tour of duty in the Serbian mountains in winter without a brew.
Who's the pickiest eater you know? How annoying is it? Is it you?

My DadMy dad HATES fussy eaters. When we used to invite our friends round for dinner...god help them if they were fussy eaters...he'd make a point of raising the "starving children in Africa" line as often as poss...
The line "back in my day you ate what you were given" went well along side "you're bloody lucky to be given anything to eat at all". Needless to say it was embarassing for us kids.
So am I fussy? Not really. My dad said to me and my sister: "OK you're allowed to hate one food...only one food...choose your food now and choose wisely cause you'll be made to eat everything else that's put in front of you!"
I chose tomatos and my sister chose mushrooms...and to this day I still hate tomatos (altho i love tom sauce) and my sis still hates mushrooms!
