No lool, didn't I just say? We have been eating OUT for this past week, so any leftovers from the restaurants we went to got taken by my family, since my aunt and uncle won't be able to eat them since they're just visiting. Since there's so many of us, we always seem to order more than necessary so we have a lot leftover. There's so many plastic and styrofoam containers cluttering up our fridge now.

Oh, sorry. I missed that line. lol.

I love left overs. I don't have to cook then. So nice.
Did you get anything good?

LOL its fine, I tend to tl;dr myself. Skimming.

I only like leftovers if they're cooked by either me or my mom. Outside food has too much sauce, too many preservatives, too many spices, too much fat or oil....xD;; So yeah, unless its one of those 'main dish, western type restaurant food that you can finish in one sitting', I don't like outside restaurant leftovers.

Still, someone has to eat them and the containers are taking up way too much room in the fridge. As the Chinese have a saying "A meal is still a meal, whether the food is good or bad." I can't really translate it properly but that's the general idea of the saying.

I can see that. I loooove sauces. I always want more. And I like super flavorful stuff. So I really like restaurant food. Even if it's not very good for me.

That's a good saying. Don't want to waste food when it's avoidable.

I haaaate it. Sauce make me just want to go BLEGH. I also especially hate how Asian restaurants make most if not all their fish dishes. I'm not trying to be picky but they're just not done well. And its not like I don't like flavour but sometimes, the flavours are too strong and they just stick to the roof of your mouth and the sides of your throat and NEVER LEAVE.

Yeah, I was taught to never waste food. Sometimes its unavoidable but most times it is. When I was younger, my parents would always go "Think about all the people who don't have enough food to eat!" and I'd end up eating even if I didn't like it. XD;; Asian parents lol.

Aw. That must be rough. Makes sense you prefer to eat stuff you cook then if you don't like much flavor. I don't think I've had much fish at Asian restaurants except for sushi and crab. I love me some crab and sushi. So good.
Oh yeah, some of the flavors really do like to stick around for a long time. It's not so bad when it's a good flavor, but if it's something gross it's really bad. lol.

My family is white and pretty poor so I got a ton of guilt for not finishing food too.

It's not like I don't like the flavour, I just think restaurants put too much on their food lol. If they put less in it, I might like it more. I sometimes like simple foods more than strong flavoured stuff. I love sushi though! Not so much on the shellfish aka crab and lobster and shrimp and stuff.

Yeah. Like curry. I love curry but sometimes, it isn't made well and its just....too much spiciness, not enough actually curry taste.

I feel bad when I get picky about a meal and don't want to eat it but I'd rather not eat then be forced to eat it.

light: I see :o Good luck finding a therapist!

I could understand though, it might seem tough to handle, especially when they don't understand how it feels.

River: I see!

Hotarla: I don't eat much of actual curry, but a sweet Korean version lol Just a preferred taste

I don’t mind spicy curry as long as it’s not JUST spicy. I don’t mind sweet curry either.

But I feel bad as well when I don’t like how the food is made and I can’t stomach it.
