Eating Habits

I came across this food quiz on And Now, Lights and decided to put Mike and I to the test.

Apparently, my eating habits are far superior to my husbands (heh), who consumes coffee and soda like they're going out of style.

Favorite cooking herb:
Me: Rosemary and thyme.
Him: Salt (Obviously salt is not an herb, further demonstrating why he doesn't cook...
How many days a week do you cook at home?
Me: 2-3
Him: 0
Favorite recipe you cook at home:
Me: Shepherds pie & chicken tertazini 
Him: Shepherds pie & breakfast
Food allergies: None
Anything you claim to be allergic to so it doesn't end up in your food because you hate it so much:
Me: Cucumbers and sesame seeds. Yuck.
Him: Nope, nothing!
What do you get on your burger?
Me: Spinach, artichokes, bacon and bleu cheese, ideally. If not, just bacon and cheese. 
Him: Bacon and cheese.
Peanut butter and jelly/honey/jam?
Me: Ew, I hate peanut butter and jelly with a passion. Just peanut butter, please!
Him: Peanut butter and jelly
How many grocery stores do you shop at on a regular week?
We generally shop once every two weeks, and we keep it to two stores. Mike probably comes with me once a month.
Worst part about food prep:
Me: Touching raw meat just grosses me out. Funny how I still manage to eat it though ;)
Him: Having to have patience
Favorite fruit:
Me: Oranges
Him: Grapes
Favorite vegetable:
Me: Spinach and corn
Him: Carrots and broccoli
Biggest cooking flop:
Me: I'm a pretty good cook, but I tend to always burn things in the toaster.
Him: Using 3 tbsp of salt instead of 1/3 tbsp of salt... on our first Valentines Day...
Favorite cuisine:
Me: Italian, Ethiopian, and West Indian.
Him: Italian
Favorite snack(s):
Me: Sweets... cookies, ice cream, chocolate, love it all. My ass, however, does not.
Him: Cashews and cheeze-its.
Drink of choice:
Me: Almost always water, if not then skim milk. 
Him: Coke Zero and strong coffee.
Favorite candy:
Me: I would kill someone for a Godiva maple walnut truffle.
Him: Twizzlers.
Favorite cookie:
Me: White chocolate macadamia or peanut butter chocolate Newman-O's.
Him: White chocolate macadamia or oatmeal raisin.
Favorite breakfast food:
Me: Eggs benedict and cereal.
Him: Bacon, sunny side up eggs, and toast.
Most expensive meal you (not parents) have ever paid for:
Timpano, NYE 2009 
Soda?
Me: I never really drink soda, but if I do, Coke Zero
Him: Coke Zero
Favorite fish:
Me: I'm a really picky fish eater. The only fish I eat are salmon (only smoked), tuna (only in sandwiches), cod (only in fish & chips) and tilapia (for dinner, rarely).
Him: Tilapia
Favorite shellfish:
Me: Crab and scallops (are scallops considered a shellfish?)
Him: Shrimp
Favorite ice cream:
Me: Peanut butter chocolate or anything with cheesecake chunks. Oh god. 
Him: Coffee and sherbet (not together, obviously)
Favorite alcoholic drink:
Me: I only drink vodka, my favorite mixed drink is Sex on the Beach. 
Him: White Russian and whiskey and coke.

What are your eating habits like? Are they similiar to your spouse?

ETA: I have no idea why the formatting is so wonky, but apparently I can't fix it so... whatever.

i like this! matt and i are similar. i'm a pretty strict vegan and he likes chicken, so that causes a ruckus. other than that, we both love veggies and legumes! oh, and i TOTALLY agree that there is no better herb than rosemary. it adds sophistication to any dish!

My hubby is the same way! No jelly for him, just PB only. ;)

I love that his favorite "spice" is salt. My boyfriend would agree with him!
