If you’re just talking about individually enjoying things you’re eating instead of mixing them up, that’s pretty normal. OCD kicks in when you freak about food touching like my aunt does. And this is why she has a kid who rejects any perceived flaw in her made in China toys. Which is precisely how I got a sweet stuffed pikachu last year, so I’m cool with it.

In the old days, people mixed their food. They collected everything there was to eat and mixed it together for meals. But IDK if you eat the various portions one at a time it makes much difference health-wise...as long as you eat all the various portions within a 20 minute window or so.

One of the various step dads I had in my life was big on this idea of eating one bite of every portion clockwise around your plate. He was very particular about how people eat. He allowed me to eat all my vegetables at once though because I didn't like them and wanted to get it over with first.

I always eat all my vegetables and got dessert. My brother around my age, always refused and sat at the table for hours sulking. When my mom came home from work and caught my stepdad trying to force a spoon of spinach in my brothers mouth -- she put a stop to all that. She was only with him like 5 minutes.

It's also worth noting that sometimes people get weird about what they eat, how they eat etc. when they lack control over their lives. They do this as a way to kind of have control over their own behaviors. Especially kids.

Yep. That's probably why I was really weird about it.

See, I disagree.

Let's say you're eating a luscious dinner. Straight from a melting pot.

You have sweet, pristine white corn at one corner, black olives at another, and then a glob of refried beans (who somehow found it's way on your plate, even though they don't even belong with the dish)

When you mix them all together, it creates stomach aches. The white corn uses the tongue to prevent the black olives from blending well in your mouth. They used to be a lot better at this but they're slowly becoming replaced. They could maintain their numbers if each kernel had at least two baby kernels.

Also, despite the fact that black olives make up 13% of your plate, they cause over 50% of indigestion. And don't get me started on refried beans. Every year the plate gets more beanier. It's like someone is using a spoon to catapult beans onto our plate.

Olives are pure fat. There are better ways to get healthy fat.

Some beans here and there are quite healthy for you -- but you wouldn't want to overdo it. Especially shitty refried beans. Just a spoonful of healthier beans or two is all you need. Otherwise you get fat and gassy.

In general children like simpler foods (and dislike complex ones, especially spicy foods) because they have more taste buds. As you grow up and drink hot liquids, you slowly damage your taste buds, making complex/spicy flavors less so, and that's why adults tend to prefer those flavors while kids don't.

Not sure if that's the only factor involved (probably not, I'm no tongue doctor), and it certainly doesn't explain Melon's behavior, but /shrug.
Interesting! Do you liek spicy foods? I hadn't thought how other preferences have changed alongside this, but realized it also happens to coincide with greatly increased affinity for bitterness and comparably reduced tolerance for sweets. prefer my coffee black.

yeah, it's been an unconcious change from the intentional mixing that had defined my previous eating habits.
