Foodie signs that a new BF/GF is going to be a right PITA

"Can I have some tomato ketchup please?"
With EVERYTHING and anything. Never dared take her to a decent restaurant in case she did that.

Well, that's instant dumpsville straight off, surely?Edited by JonRB on Wednesday 3rd June 00:57
+1 for 'don't like spicy food'
the ex. had not eaten many curries, we had lunch in wagamama's quite early on and she couldn't finish her meal, which wasn't exactly spicy. the thai / passanda route is the way to go, she ended up enjoying most things this side of a madras.
i'm not fussed if they don't like certain foods as long as they are prepared to at least try something once. if they don't like it after then fine [i'm talking food here guys!]. i find things like liking well done steak is inherited from parents and is easily converted.
the ex. had a fear of beans, you couldn't even say the words 'baked beans' to her without a hissy fit. every time we stayed in a hotel i had to brief the breakfast waitress what would happen if she even saw so much as a single baked bean and of course i couldn't eat them myself. i'd give anything to know the reason behind that!
the one before here had a similar reaction to cheese, although she at least didn't mind me eating it. bizarre!
i've never had the misfortune to be in a realtionship with a veggie, she would need to be an absolute stunner to warrant that level of aggrevation.

my brother in law is like that ali, going for family meals to restaurants can be quite amusing for me.
my dad used to dislike rice & pasta but was cured by spending 4mths each with work in xingdao and udinese.
thinking about it, i would have a problem if an OH disliked sushi, as i eat it every chance i get.

Wrong, on so many levels.
Unfortunately I was that person until I met my lass 6 years ago. She really opened my eyes to the joys of proper food. All her uncles (and father) were/are butchers so I suppose it's only natural.Wrong, on so many levels.
Once upon a time, steak tartar would have put the fear of god into me, now though, it's one of my favourite dishes. Similarly with my brethren. Garlic butter mmmmmm.
Andoulette is another battle that i've fought and won. Happy days.
