Last week I was out for lunch with one of my coworkers and was amused to watch them pick the pickles off their burger bun.
It got me thinking about when the girls were young and one wouldn’t eat onions and the other wouldn’t eat mushrooms.
Meanwhile my wife loved them both so would simply finely chop them and when the girls asked if there were mushrooms or onions in the dish she would lie to them. (She still does)
For most of my life I wouldn’t eat peas. You know those pea and carrot combos that all diners would put on your plate? I would just pick out the carrots and eat those leaving the little green water bags behind. (I love peas now)
But I can’t judge the picky eaters – because I realized I’m one. It’s avocado which never used to be a problem because you never saw it in a dish. Now it’s popular and everyone wants to add avocado or guacamole to their burger. Yes, I pick off the avocado.
What would you pick off your burger?
