FESS UP! your most embarassing food moments.

alright! since it's the new year, look back and remember and share some stupid, embarassing moments with food-we've all got em! keep it anonymous if you want that's juuuust fine. but we're all in the same boat! i've got alot myself. and i wana laugh about it. things like getting caught sneaking food as a waitress,  stealing sugar packets at the restaurant, going on a date with a smear of PEANUT BUTTER on my face, and tons of others. BRING EM ON PEOPLE!

Well, it's only embarassing in retrospect - when one was in the fridge, I used to have pie or cake for breakfast.

But the one that is truly embarassing, and the source of my aversion of raisins to this day, is when I was 7 and my mom was making oatmeal raisin cookies.  I loved raisins at the time, and I ate so much of them my mom had to go out to buy more for the cookies.  I Crawled into bed with my parents later that night with an awful stomachache, and then threw up.  It took a while for my parents to stop mentioning that one.

I probably have had more embarrassing incidents than I can remember, but the first one that comes to mind is this one:

One evening, I get the munchies and I almost run down to the local supermarket to get a chocolate bar, a huge bag of crisps, rice pudding, cake and biscuits (I was overweight at that time btw). At the check-out, I bump into one of my skinny friends and I was so embarrassed I told her I was going to see a film with some friends and I'd been asked to get the snacks. That was the last time I ever ran out to the supermarket when I had the munchies.

Or maybe the time I spilled some dressing of some kind down the front of my trousers leaving a white stain in a strategic place, and not realizing it until my friend asked (much much later) 'so, what have you been up to so far?', pointedly gazing at my trousers.

I'm a huge fan of spicy food. Back then when I didn't have IBS, I'd eat anything with chili. Once, I was out with a bunch of people and we went to eat spicy ramen. I ordered the hottest ramen and everyone was impressed. The first few mouthfuls were okay but it became increasingly difficult to eat. I didn't want to 'ruin my reputation' so I finished the whole bowl with swollen lips for one day. Everyone called me Sausage Lips.

:) I gave up cheese for lent a few years ago (being an insane cheese addict and all), so after Easter I went to Costco and bought the biggest block of cheese(s) you could get. Somehow I forgot about moderation, as I started to devour string cheese, cheese quesadillas, pasta with extra cheese... Let's just say I was in literal pain for the upcoming weeks as my stomach wasn't used to dairy anymore. It was probably the worst 'stomach flu' i've ever had in my life , in which I barely can eat that much cheese now. Moderation is key!!

When I was a kid, I got caught drinking the juice out of a can of black olives.  My brother still gives me a hard time about that.

More recently, I'd have to say there was a week or so that my husband was back east and I got really bummed out and lived off semi-sweet chocolate chips and almonds for about three days.  I ended up finishing off one of those ten-pound Costco bags of chocolate chips that still had a lot left and was really embarrassed when he got back and wanted me to make chocolate chip pancakes, and I had to fess up that, um, I had eaten all the chocolate chips ...

While it was posted in 2007, it still haunted me last year.

^lol

my embarrassing moment is when I ate my 1 cup of veggies for lunch, which just so happened to be broccolli. 6 hours later was my high-intensity cardio class with two of my closest friends and just enough time for my broccoli gas to start acting up... I tend to pass gas just from all the movement in general, but broccoli puts a little extra flare in 'em.. I farted (silent but deadly) right in the middle of class it was so stinky and gross that my one friend who was right next to me brought it up after class laughing and asking who "sharted"... I didn't admit to it.. just suggested glade plug-ins next class... lol.. super embarrassing though...

I'm sure there are more but I have the worst memory... this just happened a few weeks ago.. lol

oh yeah, in third grade I ate so much Halloween candy I puked... at the time I was more proud than embarrassed though :)

Well my embaraasing story was around June 2008, Myself, this guy who I liked and liked me and his beep of a friend (she was alright at the time but in the end she was the reason we never got together offically) As I was saying I met them at a Retail course that running for 3 months and every Tuesday for the course we went and volunteered at a charity shop, well we were on break and he went to get maccas, and her and I went to this burger joint and got a burger and chips, when we recieved it the burger was huge and full up pack, the three of us sat at the burger place and with the burger it was hard to know where to start or bite into, so when I did, I tried to do it neatly but it ended up spilling over and going on my face, he just happened to have his camera out and took photos of that and was laughing.

once when i was on a cruise, i ordered prime rib & i told the waiter to drop all the extras.  i had to keep telling him that.  he was shocked.  i guess he never heard that before.  he couldn't understand why i wanted him to drop it all.  LOL

another time, at a party with hubby's friends, one of them was telling a joke & i laughed so hard that i cried & i spit my drink out from my mouth & my nose.  well, what i spit out from my mouth went shooting way across the table & right onto hubby's friend!

yep...  stuff to never forget...

hahaha

well check this out, you know those HUGE premade cookie batches things where you just heat them up? i started making one on a day off at 8 am, half was gone before it got in the oven, and the other half with peanutbutter and cheetos was gone before it cooled...ohhh and

once at work i was craving stuff soooooooo badly and the desert was chocolate cake, and there was some for people who needed pureed and i ended up having a couple of those pieces-i mean, how can you go wrong on any pureed desert? it has to taste good!

Being caught during my binging habits..even when I thought I was being sneaky. Especially at my old job.....:/

Oh this one looks fun!

16 years old, my first date, very tough piece of chicken....momentary struggle....chicken in my date's face.  hehehe

A couple friends and I were in Canada.  Being only 19, our last day was spend drinking beer and eating fried food in the pubs...Going through customs, on our way back into the states, I got the worst case of beer and fried food sh*ts, I made my friend pull over on the side of the highway because I couldn't make it to the gas station 5 miles up.

lol NICE....oh that alcohol is mean >.<

I was ravenously hungry and went to the supermarket and got a slab of ribs and some chow mein and it was really good so the next night I went back to the same supermarket and go the same ribs and chow mein but also happened to get the same check-out clerk who commented that I had that for dinner the night before.  I guess the look on my face told her she should just mind her own business but I was really mortified.

Another time, I was with a work group at a restaurant for lunch and I love to order breakfast for lunch and I had just asked the cute waiter dude if breakfast was still being served and I was totally expecting him to say "no" but he went on to say that breakfast was served til 2PM and since I thought he was about to say no, I said sweetly and flirtily "Not even for me?" and just looks at me like "you dummy I just said we served til 2PM"  So my co-workers gave me a really hard time about that for about a year.  Every time we were in a meeting and I would ask about something and the answer was "NO" my joker coworker would go "Not even for her?"  lol everyone got a big kick out of that one.  Even me, because I do have a sense of humor

Handing someone a salt shaker across the table and dipping my boob in the shrimp cocktail in front of me.  I was wearing a white sweater.

Ahhh, the Boob Dips, gotta love 'em!!

 ahahaha....not complaining about what I have, but sometimes I wish they were big enough to 'dip'......lol

Eating a dozen crispy creme doughnuts in one sitting, better yet I was washing them down with sparkling wine.  My husband was out of town and my mom had the kids.  Hubby called to ask what was going on, and I actually told him the truth.  The next morning he wanted to know if I was okay.  I was not massive sugar hangover. 

Mmmm. Doughnuts!

My most embarrassing food moment came when I was 42 weeks pregnant. That's right, you do the math. I was totally totally huge.

All I wanted was bbq, collard greens & hushpuppies from Otis, our neighborhood friendly bbq guy. The delima: I wanted both ribs and chicken. The solution: "The Hookup" i.e. everything Otis' got. When I ordered the waiter LAUGHED IN MY FACE. I gave him the infamous pregnant "I might kill you" stare & he got my hookup.

After I did a number on this gigantic plate of gorge, Otis himself came out to say hello & bring me some hushpuppies & peach cobbler "on the house."
