Lighter Topic: Favorite Foods of All Time!

I have had a lot of different foods in my time...okay, this is The Truth Files so I will be honest. I have never had Thai, authentic Chinese, Japanese, or any other urban food. I have had a lot of Italian and American cuisine. My all time favorite foods consist of ice cream, pizza, pasta, burgers. If it's not in any relation to those types of items I tend to not eat it. You will catch me once in a while eating something with chicken but I am not a large chicken fan. In fact, I tend to not like it 99% of the time and I will tell you why. When I was a child growing up my parents cooked chicken like 4-5 times out of the week. Every time dinner came around it was something with chicken or friend chicken. By the time I reached the age of 10 I had vowed to not eat any more chicken. I understand chicken is cheap when you think of the price per portion and feeding a family of 5 but that was just too much chicken. For many many years after that I refused to eat anything that had the word chicken printed on it. This goes for Top Ramen and burrito's as well (chicken burrito's are nasty anyhow, who actually eat those?).

Nowadays I eat chicken once in a blue moon and it has to be in a specific format. I don't eat chicken legs and whatnot with bones on it. It has to be boneless, skinless chicken and mixed into a dish for me to dive in on it. I have seen a recipe where you can take boneless, skinless chicken and throw it in the oven with a little chopped onion and green pepper and an entire bottle of salad dressing like ranch or blue cheese and cook for an hour. Then serve with veggies or rice. I can get behind that and I intend on trying it one day. But make no mistake about it. I love cheese covering the chicken. Sharp flavored cheese. So much cheese that you can't taste the chicken kind of cheese.

Smothering chicken with cheese kills the nutritional value of it, may as well eat a cheeseburger and this argument works most of the time. Nevertheless, enough about chicken. I have loved pizza ever since I was a child. I can't remember my first piece of pizza but when I had it I continued to eat it. There was one year that I stopped eating pizza because I wanted to get healthier and try other foods out there. I stopped eating pizza and drinking soda. I actually did make it to a year because contrary to popular belief if you believe in wanting to be healthy you can put mind over matter and cut off what you shouldn't be eating. I had no problem cutting those types of food off and I did, indeed, lose a bit of weight. However, the love between pizza and I was too much to keep us apart and I re-introduced it back to my repertoire of eatery and it has remained ever since.

Some say I have the eating habits of a 4 year old and I agree. I can't eat things that don't taste good just because people tell me it's super healthy. I eat what I want, when I want, and I do it because I'm an adult and I have it like that.
