A bite-size post about bite-size food that I still take multiple bites from…
This is kind of an extension to a post I wrote a couple of years ago about my slow eating. I’ve been noticing that there are a lot of bite-size things that I am still compelled to consume in multiple bites. Here is a provisional list:
- Scallops (possibly my favourite seafood, so of course I’m gonna savour it)
- Dried figs (I once tried to count how many bites I took, and got to about ten (?))
- Oreos
- Squares of Lindt chocolate blocks (or similar)
- Strawberries (but I will sometimes eat them in one bite)
- Grapes with seeds
- Meatballs
- Fudge
- Dumplings (apart from the ones that have soup/broth in them)
There are some bite-size things that I will eat in one bite. This is mostly because it would be impractical to bite them (e.g. oysters, cherry tomatoes), or because it would decrease the enjoyment of said food (e.g. chocolate balls or the chocolate you get in boxes – I know people who will eat these in two bites because they want to see the filling, but I think it’s much better to just eat it all at once).

People can eat an Oreo in one bite? How is that even possible?
Not sure if Oreos are just smaller in Australia but definitely bite-size if you don’t bother with licking the cream off first 😉
I totally agree I love eating things in one bite. When I was a kid a jaffa cake was my favourite thing to eat whole. Now it’s lychee without the core.
Hmm I’m not sure I’d consume a jaffa cake in one bite. That’s probably the sort of thing I’d like to savour, even if they’re small. Lychees though – definitely a one-bite food!
Haha I only had to eat it in one due to my brother always trying to steal my treats.
Haha fair enough!
Ohhhh…you’re one of those..:)
I can’t even watch..:)
Hahaha trust me, you’re not the only one baffled and frustrated by my odd eating habits 😀
