Wellll...there's a big, fat, obese woman inside me dyiiiiing to get out..so being very fortunate with a fast metabolism and being naturally petite and slim, its a personal conviction of mine to NEVER EVER deny myself of food for ANY reason.

I like a cup of tea for breakfast (or to sit down at a cafe if I'm out and about for my mochalatte with a dash of vanilla and lots of sugar, eggs florentine or toasted crossaint with strawberry jam yuuuuuuuum).

I eat healthy, love rice, pasta, bread, olive oil in and on everything, feta cheese, normal cheese, hommus or tzatiki or eggplant dip, LOVE LOVE LOVE fish, especially salmon, crab (but I feel SO bad eating it cos I'm cancerian, I feel like a cannibal), LOVE seafood in general I think (mussels, calamari, octopus, PRAWNS!!!...I'm greek, can't help it), love pastries and bakery food, LOVE LOVE LOVE vegetables (hate fruit. Weird, ay?).

I have an incredible sweet tooth, need to eat chocolate (usually on the way to work) everyday, love polishing off a whole packet of biscuits with cream in the middle, hell I love even just spoonfuls of sugar by themselves!

I don't mind my junk food, but only when I need a real grease fix..so once a week maybe? If that?

As for meat, not a big meat eater at all. Only if the steak melts in your mouth hahahaha but seriously, i usually take the meat out or order it vegetarian.

I blame my cancer sun for the fondness of "comfort food" and the Taurus Venus for the insatiable need to indulge the tastebuds with with rich, gourmet food.

I also make sure that whenever I go out to eat, that at least half of the meal is vegetables.

I generally like crisp things and don't really care about sweets. I don't normally eat dessert because I'm usually too full and it's just not that much of a treat for me. When I get cravings, its usually for salty things. I hate eggplants (don't like mush unless its bananas), peppers and melons and SPICE (why eat something if its painful?? You should be comfortable when you eat). Other than that I'll eat anything. My dad is a huge foodie and my mom is foreign so I've had crazy food. Every year on my birthday my parents take me to a restaurant called Eve (its right outside DC in Alexandria) and we sit in the tasting room and have a 9 course meal.

I have Venus in Taurus, too, and my Sun in Taurus conjuncts my Venus

What I love about chocolate......is not just the fact of eating it. I love the bursting of soft chocolate flavor melting all over my tongue.......and the tingling sensations I get all over, creeping up to my brain.....

Satiated

I'm really conscientious about where I get my food, I only eat organic produce as well. Hello Pisces Moon!

Lately I keep eating pasta or Indian food, and I love me some teatley british blend tea in the morning.

When I was a younger I had a very large sweet tooth, loved chocolate and over ate due to depression.

Breakfast.

Once, I'm up I don't have a lot of time for breakfast. It sorta of like "go,go,go", "come on get moving".

So, I have my coffee maker pre-set to start brewing at 7:30, while the coffee is brewing I might put a bagel or toast in the toaster.

or I have fruit already cut and ready to go in my fridge. Normaly on Mondays and Tuesday as it give me the
weekend to prepare it.

As soon as I'm changed and showered, I pour my coffee into my travel mug and eat/drink while on my way.

Lunch,

Somedays, I'm at school other days at my internship.

If I'm at my internship all bring something as its in a suburban office buildings, no grocery or any resturants near by.

At school all grab something on my meal card.

Dinner,

heaviest meal of all and only time of the day I can get a big meal and not worry about time.

Time to time all experiement with meals and what is expected out of me for the day, for example if its final exams all all eat more grains for breakfast and fish and chips for lunch.

If its a "planned Long Exhausting day", but not a test or exam day all switch to steak and eggs for breakfast and either get up extra early or prepare the night before.

I often don't enjoy cooking, but most home-made dishes taste better than the already prepared foods at the store (not that I've eaten much of anything made from scratch, recently). I love home-made spaghetti sauce, and now cringe at the stuff in the jars.

Ever since going through a huge refried bean burrito phase in 1994, when I was drawing and painting a lot, I crave burritos when I'm absolutely starving. I love hot sauce - not the watered down kind, that most seem to be - but full of flavour and *hot*. My stomach can hardly ever handle it anymore, so I have to be careful. (It can hardly handle most foods, nowadays.)

A year ago, I couldn't stand Orzo salad with feta cheese in it. I ate around the cheese. Now, I *adore* it. I was pleasantly surprised to find a Dominos veggie pizza that we ordered last month - on a comfort food and movie night, which turned out to be a really good evening - where was I? The pizza had Feta cheese on it, and it was good.

I'm not so keen on meat, as much as I am the sauces or flavourings that they're covered or marinated in. I had to be convinced to try Chinese Spare Ribs, from the co-op in West Drayton, when I was maybe eight years old, and they ended up being one of my favourite foods. They became a staple in our house, until we left England. (When we moved out of the London area, mum found the local butcher had the same sauce, so she bought them from him every week.)

I loved Pepperoni Pizza, as a child - I rarely got to eat it, but it was my first choice, when we went to Pizza Hut, or any pizza place, for a birthday dinner or special occasion. I love real deep pan pizzas, and haven't had one in twenty years. I also loved the garlic bread. For some reason, I can no longer stand Pepperoni.

I like vegetable juice, once I get used to it, and like fruit and green smoothies.

A large, hot mug of tea in the morning, after my breakfast and a shower - tea, with milk and sugar added. I used to like digestive biscuits with my tea, in England, and on the odd occasion when we found them here (I can't remember if they're in Giant Eagle, or where they were found).

Recently, I've started once again, to mix some colostrum powder into ice cream. I need to do that, ideally, as soon as I get up, and follow that with a glass of water (as of two weeks ago, that water has four drops of Liquid Kelp in it).

I like foods like Fettucine Alfredo, I love cream cheese, starburst chewy sweets. A little chocolate most days, is good, but a few months ago, I found myself reaching for a carrot to eat, instead.

Flax oil in a smoothie or yogurt - something I need to get back into. It's good for the skin, and taken internally, also helps to sort out my hair and ease tangles.

I went through a taco phase, starting in 2003. Before that, I hated sour cream (by itself), but I now love it. I used to not like spinach, sour cream (as stated), or mayonnaise, but mixed together with a few other things, into Spinach Dip (home-made), and I love it, with chunks of French or Italian bread. (Italian bread with a little butter and cheese is also good.)

My dinner tonight, is a Subway sandwich, veggie, with Southwest dressing and hot peppers. I like all kinds of things, it just depends on my mood. Roast potatoes. Mashed potatoes. Jacket potatoes with butter and cheese - or sour cream and chives. Cheesecake. Muesli is my favourite cereal.. and I'm writing an essay. Sorry. I don't even eat much - my diet just varies.

I didn't tell you I was Scorpio(Sun-Moon), did I?

this thread made me hungry !! lol

I love vegetables, spinach, broccoli, brussel sprouts, eggplant,potatoes.... But they have to be cooked with olive oil or in tomato sauce or as casserole, or cooked chinese style. I eat at least one veg. dish a day with greek yoghurt.

Grilled salmon is also one of my fav foods.

Also fruits. Also chocolate and chai lattes but I have sensitive skin so I'm supposed to stay away from junk food/ fast food
