The husband and I butt heads on this one a lot. I prefer my veggies with a crunch, and he just doesn’t - he’s even said “its practically raw!” And the only time we can agree to have broccoli is if its smothered in cheese, and practically mush. 
I know you want to put my 2-liter bottles of soda pop in bags. They’re too heavy and hurt my shoulder. Just put them back in the grocery cart, please. Yes, I’m sure. Yes, I’m really sure. No, I don’t need any help putting them in the car. My husband will help me carry them in the house. If you put three of them in a bag, I have to lift all three of them. If you put them individually in the cart, I can pick them up individually. One at a time. Really, please. I’m sure.
Pasta with white clam sauce and lots of grated cheese. Yum.
I hate the bread too, but I have GOT to have the cheese. I just ignore the gross bread.

You heathens need to stay the heck away from my steak, salmon, eggs, pasta, etc. but this one post, I can totally get behind. 
He IS an ass.
But seriously. None of you are ever cooking for me!
My wife refuses to eat soggy bread in any form - pot pie, chicken and dumplings, goopy sandwiches, whatever.
I like ketchup on my hot dogs, and I don’t care how wrong that is. In fact, the more you make a big deal about its wrongness, the more I’ll put on just to watch you twitch. I’m eating for my enjoyment, not yours, dammit.
Picky eaters, the lot of ya.
Ditto. Except for the way mom made em part.
Heathen! To the stocks with you!
It’s never too late for breakfast or too early for pizza.
Ooooh, another one I can agree with! I put exactly two things on my hot dogs: ketchup and onions. Raw or caramelized, either way is great … but the ketchup is mandatory and nonnegotiable.
I do not, however, subscribe to the theory that this has any wrongness to it at all. This is how God ordained that hot dogs be eaten. 
I have mastered the art of adding just a little extra cereal after blending the required amount with the cooking liquid, just to make lumps. Oh, and it should be somewhere around the consistency of thick wallpaper paste, too.
I want my steak cooked. I like the taste of meat, I do not like the taste of blood. If your considered opinion is that you’d like to strut around bragging about how much you llluuurrrvvve that blood dripping off your dinner, then go ahead; I’ll be out on the patio.
And ditto for scrambled eggs. I can just barely deal with a loosly jelled yolk on a fried egg, but scramble them dry or just give me toast.
And my sauce Hollandaise is extremely tart. I zest a lemon over it, then strain after it’s done. Some day I’ll get brave and just put a few drops of bergamot in.
I get this principle. Last night for dinner I had a bowl of vegetables, then a perfect steak sandwich.
What constitutes the perfect steak sandwich? A medium piece of fillet straight off the grill between two slices of fresh wholegrain bread. No spreads, sauces or other fillings.
Hot dogs should have mayonnaise on them. Yup. Bun, hot dog, mayonnaise, and that’s it.
Does eating ketchup on my broccoli count in this thread? I know when I have a plate with meat, fries, and broccoli, you’d think the ketchup was for the fries, but it’s not.
I don’t care how you cook your meat (sometimes I like well done, sometimes I like blue, most of the time I like medium-rare) but I do care that it’s NOT BLOOD. No, seriously, it’s not.
I too like ketchup on my hotdogs. I remember reading a discussion, maybe here, about how it is wrong to put ketchup on a hotdog because the sweetness of the ketchup covers up the complex tastes of the hot dog. What?! It’s a hotdog, it’s probably best those tastes are covered up. Geez.
Another one for ketchup on a hot dog. I’ve always had them that way, they taste good to me.
On hot days when I actually drink milk, I put ice cubes in it. What’s that you say? It dilutes the taste? That happens with every drink with ice cubes then, your reasoning is flawed if you only exclude milk. EVERY cold drink needs ice cubes, no exceptions
And I also enjoy ketchup on steak. And ketchup on fried rice. And ketchup on scrambled eggs.
I’ll add Dry Cereal and Medium Well Steak with Ketchup to my declared list of sins.
Absolutely. My kids are the age at which eating stuff that grosses out mom is amusing. So they really like runny yolks. My daughter discovered soft boiled eggs. Can’t even sit at the table because of the smell.
(Red wine, not sangria, is supposed to be about 65 degrees. A little cooler than most people’s room temperature, but warmer than a wine cellar is suppose to be. I like mine right out of my “wine cellar” - the back corner basement of a house in Minnesota in winter where the upstairs temperature is 65 - its probably about 58 degrees. In the summer the basement gets warmer and the wine is “too warm.”
I ask for no cheese whenever I order a Filet-O-Fish. Much of the time, they’ll still put the cheese on.
Other than cream cheese with smoked salmon, cheese on fish or cheese on chicken is disgusting to me.
I know stouts are supposed to be served warm, but I like them cold, dammit.
I also love cold pizza leftovers and cold Chinese food leftovers the day after.
If the meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, or noodles are really fresh and of the best quality, then I am completely in line with the pink-in-the-middle/soft/crunchy/al dente requirements. Don’t cook the best stuff out of the food!
But if it’s not top quality, those things don’t necessarily apply. I’m not going to go to Pat’s Steaks and want a Cheesesteak pink in the middle.
And unless it’s the best beef in the world, I’m probably going to need some kind of sauce to go with it.
