I thought I was the only one.
I like my rice sticky and clumping together. Fluffy rice–Blechh.
I’m right there with room temperture soda and limp french fries. I’ll also add non-crispy bacon - I like there to still be just a little elastic chew.
I’ll take the non-crunchy bacon. French Fries to me are supposed to be sort of limp, but not shoestring- so that’s a different thing I guess.
I like chili with chopped raw onions, and beans are just fine. Topped with shredded cheddar. Mmm!
This isn’t quite the same thing, but the more “skin” on a bowl of chocolate pudding, the happier I am.
We found a few like-minded souls in this old thread:
I like all my beer ice cold, even home brew.
I like my hot fudge sundae to be made with orange sherbet instead of vanilla ice cream…
^ Oh, yeah, the first chance I get… 
I grew up on overcooked noodles. Rigatoni, the way my Nona cooked it, was actually ‘flat’, in that it collapsed on itself. "Al dente’ pasta just seems undercooked and crunchy to me. I still can’t cook it the way she did without it falling apart, but I cook it well past al dente. When it gets to that point, that’s when I turn up the burner and start looking for the strainer.
I also like cookies a bit overcooked. I’d much prefer them darker and a bit crunchy then with any hit of dough still in the middle (unless I’m specifically making cake type cookies).
I know two people that both liked their food so over cooked (one hot dogs, the other burgers) that if they were over, after I pulled everyone elses food off the grill, I’d told them their’s were still on and they could take them off whenever they wanted. The hot dog person like them grilled to the point where they were starting to explode, the burger person liked them somewhat burned on the outside, though I’m guessing he had more of an issue with any sign of red on the inside. Maybe he liked the charred tasted (there’s other ways to go about that), but I get the feeling ‘cook the crap out of it, like, when you take them off, leave mine on for 5 more minutes’ was just his way of getting the message across easily.
As a picky eater, I have no problem with wanting food cooked a specific way.
I like steak welllll done.
:eek: The horror! I know!
I like pastrami sandwiches with mayo. I ordered one once at a NYC deli and everyone around me stopped talking and stared at me.
I put leftover sweet potatoes (made with butter, brown sugar and cinnamon) in tomato soup.
You don’t impress me, unless you do it lengthwise! 
When I make chili, along with chili powder, I add cinnamon.
I love eggs over hard.
I like my toast to be so under toasted that is essentially warm bread.
I’ve never heard of draining white rice. How can you? It will absorb as much water as you put in it, turning into paste if you use too much.
Anyways, considering the standards of this board:

Yes. None of this creamy sloppy nonsense. I mash potatoes until they are broken, then I stop.
I eat cereal dry 99% of the time, I thought I was alone.
Back in the day when I ate eggs, I asked for broken yolk, fried hard, lace is ok. I never could stomach a egg that was even raw-ish.
I’ll be right over! 
I’m confused too. Trinopus, what is the “correct” way of cooking rice that you don’t do?
