I eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches religiously.

I always wish I could branch out and be more adventurous in my food tastes but I just can’t.

I’m quite opposite of you as well and more like Lollygagger – put it in front of me and I’ll try it, at least once (for the most part). I know for a fact I’m a big sushi/sashimi fanatic, but mackerel was not my thing…not raw anyway. I tried it anyway and confirmed what I already knew, but still, I tried.

I guess do what everyone’s saying – baby steps out of your comfort zone. Maybe have a potluck party where everyone brings their favorite dish. Give it a shot…c’mon…all your friends are doing it (how’s that for a new twist on peer pressure?)…

one of the first things doni said to me when we met was “oh, so basically you eat like a seven year old?” she couldn’t be more correct.

my definition of cuisine is well made chicken fingers, pb&j and penne vodka. much outside those things? i’m not so much a fan. :)

Can I cook for both of you? That should be a good starting place for you.

I was once you with the mac and cheese and the chicken tenders and OMFG what IS THAT NUH-UH NO WAY NOT EATING IT.

I’m not like that any more and here are my recommendations for being more foodie-like:

1. Do you have a friend that is a more adventurous eater? Go out with him or her. Ask for their recommendations on the menu and (provided it’s not something over the top… my over the top is in the realm of squid), order it. Be bold! There is always dessert should you not like your entree.

2. OR, if you are like me and do not like cooked fish (raw = yum, cooked = no. I know, it’s weird), order something you DO like (chicken!) and taste something off your friend’s plate. This is how I learned I like halibut, but not salmon.

3. I find one veggie I like and I branch off from there. I’m on a big summer salad kick right now and I often try recipes that include something I’ve either never heard of or have never tried. Sometimes I like, sometimes I don’t, but the best is when you discover something WONDERFUL and DAMN, HOW DID I EVER LIVE WITHOUT THIS? (I remember the first time I tasted guacamole. How I lived without avocados is a mystery. See also: hummus. The chick pea! Who knew?)

Good luck!

I think the best way to broaden your palate is just to dive right in and try it. If it’s something weird, don’t over think it. But take baby steps. Don’t dive right into the weirdest food ever because that might scare you and keep you from trying new things in the future.

Maybe you and your friends could have a dinner party where everyone brings a unique item and everyone can share and sample the other people’s food.

The older I get, the more adventurous I become food-wise. Not too long ago I ate sweetbreads – something I probably would have avoided 10 years ago.

Perhaps the new release in theatres “Julie & Julia” will give you daring culinary inspiration! :) Side note: or…check out the book Julie & Julia from the library! The book is wonderful!!! I am almost scared to see the movie because I loved the book so much. Cheers to adventures, or at least dreaming of adventures in the culinary world! :)

You sound just like my sister! She eats like a 6 year old too, but has since gotten (a bit) better.

I’m that person who always wishes she could cook amazing meals, but I’m so not. At least I’m not that girl right now. Maybe someday?

As for you, I’d say just challenge yourself. Get out of your comfort zone and try new things! You only live once, right?

Oh my…you just keep getting more adorable. I would be happy to be your personal food shopper. We could eat at restaurants professionally. How good would that be?

Jamie, I’m right there with you. I eat horribly – chicken tenders are at the top of my list – but I love watching the Food Network and seeing all the creations. And I have at least half a dozen food blogs on my GReader. But do I cook or bake or anything? No. I drive to my nearest fast food joint and pick up lunch or make some macaroni.

When you find answers and suggestions that work, let me know!

I say start small. Find some recipes that have at least three or four things in them that you can pronounce and love to eat. I bet you’ll find new flavors, combinations and more that you didn’t know were yummy. Try a new restaurant every once in awhile.

Confession: I didn’t like eggs, yes, that’s right eggs, until I graduated college. and I still love chicken tenders. =)

Um, WE hang out more because I LOVE pretending to be a foodie and will make you try EVERYTHING. And we’ll get drunk. And tell stories. (In parentheses)
