Hey There. So today’s let’s start with a self analysis. What kind of eater you are ? Following are some of the categories I could list out-
The fussy eater – I don’t want this, I don’t like that, I am in no mood to eat this
The orthodox eater – This is not exactly how my mother makes it, This is not the combination
The cautious eater – How many calories would that have, It looks gross would it be tasty
The simple eater – Eats what he is served without much questions
The experimental eater – Loves to try different dishes, cuisines and variations to dishes
So what kind of eater are you? Well I am a mix of simple and experimental eater. Except the allergy food and “not allowed to eat due to health reasons” food I like to eat or at least try every dish.
