Can you be a food snob/ which foods with ???

[MissSara]

Im posting after my OH called me a " food snob" last night after i refused to eat HP beans with my dinner.........

There are certain foods i can't eat if there not the right ones, and Oh finds this highly amusing especially as i have to ask when we go out for meals and things.

Here are mine

Heinz Beans = won't eat any other, can tell right away with the colour if it isn't heinz

Heinz Tomato Sauce = any other sauce tastes wrong

Lurpak Butter = can't eat toast, sandwich if it has any other type of butter on

Be nice to know what everyones "snobbery" is, maybe OH won't just laugh at me then

 

[LisaJ1986]

Same, Heinz Beans, tomato sauce, salad cream. I don't think any other taste nice at all!
And besides chinese, i refuse to reheat anything at all!

 

[x-kirsty-x]

I know it's not exactly food snobbery, but I can't have soup in a cup.

Whenever I think of somebody drinking soup with lumps rather than eating it with a spoon I actually feel physicall sick

 

[SarahH]

I can't eat packet ham Has to be a bit of ham I have cooked and sliced myself...... packet ham tastes slimey

Or mash potato - smash and all the other ready made stuff have to boil and mash them properly

And T-Bags.... must be Tetley!

Processed chickeny things, like chick sticks or whatever, ugh how people eat it is beyond me. Also i refuse to drink milk that isn't organic after I heard that the hormone injections they give non organic cows make them drip pus into the milk

 

[Sarah&Braydon]

I only drink PG Tips

I only eat free-range eggs/chicken etc aswell, although I don't think that's being snobby cause it's more about the free range thing rather than the taste.

 

[Miss.Monroe]

hate cheapo bread, only use PG tips or Nescafe coffe.
Orange juice has to be tropicana
im the same as others with the tomatoe sauce, but that goes for mayoniase and brown sauce and salad cream too.

 

[Tadpole]

PG Pyramids.

I like bread from the bakery - y'now when it's just cooked and they slice it for you. mmm. With seeds as well.

And I am fussy about sausages - I like the v. expensive fancy ones.

Oh and I don't eat frozen foods. I even like my chips homemade. (OH makes lovely ones).

So - yes I think I can count as a food snob.

My DH got me a Tesco value steak once , I nearly made him wear it. He cooked it and agreed that it tasted like a shoe .

I don't buy any own brands. Never have, never will. Nor processed meats or convenience food. Have you seen the crap that goes into it all? And the salt content of convenience food!

I only buy butchers meat, not supermarket. Local farmed and reared. Local slaughtered.

Same with milk. Local farmed organic.

I never ever shop in Asda. Loathe the place. Usually Sainsbury's is my shop of choice.

 

[Misslarue]

I rarely eat processed foods. I've never eaten packet mash/pop noddle/pepperami/processed meat shaped to look like stuff etc etc Obviously I do treat myself to chinese/pizza etc every now and then!

I like fresh foods, I buy all my veg from a local produce market. I have a fish delivery man and our milk comes from the milkman.

I eat only quorn sausages or handmade ones from our local farm shop (I can't stomach what goes into 'normal' ones!)

I can't stand salty processed stuff and much prefer to make my own stuff (it does help that I used to be a chef!) I also make my own oven chips Tadpole, they are yummy! Slimming world special!

Same here - the meat just has so much more flavour and I'm in the process of converting everyone I know!

I'm the same with meat - can't eat anything processed. Has to be literally sliced off of the animal. I try and buy local produce where I can but we're poor so occasionally resort to meat from supermarkets - but from the deli and stuff.

PG tips are the best

and Kellogs cornflakes

When me and OH move out we're going to be so skint that I'm going to have to budget carefully, that's why it bugs me that fresh local produce is so much more expensive - i have to choose between cheap junk or expensive good stuff! I'm reckoning it'll be a compromise between the two in the end!

Have you got a local produce market anywhere near you? I live in a village about 15 minutes from Aylesbury and we have a market thats goes around all the villages in the area. It's actually cheaper than Tescos and it lasts longer.
