Things you are fussy about

Haha thought it needed a counterthread because if I’m not fussy about something then I’m just not fussed. However, there are certain things I am a bit fussy about:

Peanut butter. Pip and nut or die. Tried many others and they’re all awful.

Bread. I mean, I don’t mind a plain white boring processed loaf but if I have the chance it’s sourdough or bust.

Tea. I love a good cup of tea. Yorkshire Gold and to hell with my bank balance.

You go.

coffee (grind my own beans at home, have many, many devices to make a [black filter/pourover] coffee with, would never drink instant [unless desperately needed caffiene on a silly bike ride or something])

sandwiches (actually most things to do with food… well, i’ll eat almost anything if you make it for me but if i’m making it, it’s going to have maximum taste and be fucking great)

clothes. comfy or gtfo. can’t really wear anything with a buttoned waistband these days.

use by and best before are subtly different though - use by is usually fairly cut and dry, but ‘best before’ is largely a guideline and it will be fine well after that date

(you are, of course, allowed to be fussy about whatever you want i’m not the fuss police :D)

Milk, if it’s been open for more than 24 hours I’m not having it.

Will only buy raw meat from certain supermarkets.

Eating if there’s a show on featuring wildlife

think you’re partially to thank/blame for my love of lucy and yak trousers

hah!

i’m in l+y dungarees 90% of the time at the moment. if not those, then elasticated waist cords from l+y (or some levis ones from vinted if i’m skating).

in the summer i live in a single pair of sainsburys ‘bermuda’ jean shorts, which do have a buttoned waist band but somehow they are fine?! i think i ripped them at the end of last summer though so i might need a new pair.

Apart from food:

The way the glasses and mugs are lined up and stacked in the cupboard
My gf always just chucks them in willy-nilly and it drives me mad

Yeah it’s Yorkshire tea isn’t it. All other brands are depressing to drink

Soup. Exclusively only eat Heinz Cream of Tomato. Every so often I’ll try a ‘fancy’ (out of the supermarket fridge) tomato soup but always go back to Heinz.

Red meat. Only eat beef if I essentially can’t taste the flavour (burger, bolagnese, chilli, lasagne). Would not eat roast beef/steak. Dont eat lamb.

Forums I post on. Only the best!

Think I’m fussy about all food and drink. Not that I’m only wanting really expensive ingredients or anything just that if I don’t enjoy something I find it pointless and depressing to eat it.

Wish I wasn’t like that. Very envious of people who can eat anything

Absolutely everything

Coffee is a big one for me. It scares me when somebody suggests a cafe as being ‘your kind of place’.
