Your OCs: Controversial Foods

pjthetoonaddict 2024-01-25 00:00:12 UTC #21

Okay!

Both Otto and Blue like Mint chocolate chip... mainly because I do.

But, I feel like both of them have some sort of texture sensitivity with food, so they'd probably both hate pineapple pizza. I love it though. Blue is weird, but she thinks the pineapple makes the pizza slimy, so it's a no for her. She's kinda disappointed because it seems like something she'd like too.

Otto bakes and cooks obsessively. In terms of eating, he really goes for simple food that tastes really good. He likes Kimchi though. He makes it himself so that it's Kosher. He'll grill a cheese with it.

Blue loves the fancier stuff, food-wise. BUUUUUT, I regret to inform you that both her and I like those fried chicken feet they have at Dim Sum.

Why are fried chicken feet a problem? They eat chicken feet a lot in my country. Is Otto Jewish?

pjthetoonaddict 2024-01-25 00:05:13 UTC #23

It's not! Just a lot of folks I know find it weird. And HELL YEAH CHICKEN FEET IS FREAKIN DELICIOUS I'M SO GLAD SOMEONE ELSE THINKS SO TOO.

Otto is Jewish...as well as Blue. I've had to do a bit of research on this for her, but I intended her bio mom to be Jewish (Biracial specifically).

@ThunderChicken

Lol, I don't prefer the texture of chicken feet, but the taste is just fine. I personally like offals, especially hearts and gizzards, but even livers, which some folks might think weird and gross too.

Given the setting of my story, only three people would really understand what the foods are but Ran and Nox love both mint chocolate chip ice cream and eating pineapple on pizza while Vervain is just perplexed by the fact people were willing to put fruit on pizza back then. The others don't really know as the food was essentially lost to time but might be recreated once again.

Ran is not a fan of cilantro because it smells like soap to her while Nox eats it with no problem, Vervain doesn't mind it but will not eat it with every meal. Hans thinks it smells too much like it's cousins while Gretchen is too paranoid to pick at it when it gets found around the village. Alex grew up eating it from his mother's cooking while Edgren follows the same route as Gretchen and Hans due to the amount of poisonous plants that look too similar to it that grow near the village.

Xiz loves to eat bones

This question is ironic for my characters as they’re all fruit ninjas. I guess I would just say:

Apple: Ramen
Pear: Sushi
Pineapple: Cheeseburgers
Orange: Hot dogs

Funny you should mention mint chocolate chip ice cream...

So my two protagonists, Ragna and Ravening, the on-again-off-again-enemies-with-benefits disagree on everything except two things: The superiority of mint chocolate chip ice cream, and they share a co-crush on a character named Deirdra The Unyielding.

The mint chocolate chip thing is the first thing they agree on outside of their co-horniness for a 10 foot tall dragon mommy.

Leyelle 2024-01-25 20:37:21 UTC #30

Is Ragna a normal name or did you invent it?

GodbreakerComic 2024-01-25 21:31:22 UTC #31

It's a play on words. Her background is a viking fighter from the north, her full name is Ragna Rokk.

Leyelle 2024-01-25 21:35:20 UTC #32

I was wondering if it might relate to ragnarok actually lol

Leyelle 2024-01-26 01:36:54 UTC #33

Ah, here's one:

Raw foods. Raw fish. Raw beef. Raw eggs. (Maybe even living foods) where do your OCs fall? where do you fall?

Personally I love sashimi. Raw eggs are okay in ice cream and things like that but in general I have texture issues (I get it from my dad)

For that same reason, Alicia would have trouble eating sashimi. She'd probably find it gross. Kattar can eat it just find and actually likes it, but he would also use it, again, to gross her out.

Now spicy food also has a two army war. I'm on team spicy, but like mild foods as well. Kattar is the same. Alicia can't stand spicy things. She has the tolerance for it, she just thinks it drowns out the other flavors and defeats the point of yk, seasoning the food.

In the Victorian era there were a lot of interesting flavors. Artificial flavors weren’t around until the early 1890s and are yet to be perfected so pretty much to flavor ice cream they had whatever they had around them. Pretty much berries, vanilla and all the natural sweet flavors like honey was for sweet flavors. It was of different texture than what we have today and was mainly sorbet. They would even have savory flavors such as artichoke and cheese?

Here are my character’s favorite controversial ice cream flavors!

Elsie: She likes plain vanilla but another flavor she likes is cucumber.

Roy: Roy loves anything strawberry flavored and he has yet to try tobacco flavor. It was a thing. His friends tell him to stay away from that.

Rosemary: Her favorite flavor is raspberry and that’s it. Though hazelnut she wouldn’t mind every now and then.

Ernest: Since he grew up very impoverished Ernest never could afford to make ice cream as a youth. He’s been trying all kinds of flavors and so far his favorite has been chestnut with chocolate. He’d like to try the coffee one and his friends let him eat it anyway. It’s just the flavoring.

Martin: He just melts ice. Nothing needed.

Leyelle 2024-01-26 03:24:21 UTC #35

Martin is a lunatic. Somebody help him

abigaillmartin 2024-01-26 03:25:01 UTC #36

He’s a steam powered mechanical man. He can’t help it

Leyelle 2024-01-26 03:26:00 UTC #37

Well I guess that makes a little more sense, but it never stopped orbbot and cubebot from eating real food, though it nearly kills them every time

Melissa (Damsel in the Red Dress) (making her debut tomorrow!): Loves loves loves mint chocolate chip ice cream. Her husband tells her she's crazy her son thinks it's gross, but she doesn't care even a little bit. She also likes Hawaiian pizza but she eats it with a fork, separating all the ham and pineapples and eating those together before consuming the rest of the pizza.

Glofernwolfe 2024-02-01 23:06:34 UTC #39

Ahahaa let's see...

Zov'ha: Doesn't care, she eats very little. She'd probably avoid both the pizza and the ice cream as they are high-calorie.

Aekis: Lower sense of taste (Astraleids don't eat so they have lost the sense of taste, but can taste certain things like very bitter or very spicy.) Add chilli to the pineapple pizza, or dark chocolate to the mint ice cream, and he might have a taste.

Marana: Crazy girl will eat both... and a lot. Her bionic organs can process anything.

Subeya: She'd probably hate the idea of both. She's really picky in what she eats.

Sinovan: He'd probably get indigestion from eating either lol. No, he'll stick to fresh food.

Leyelle 2024-02-01 23:09:42 UTC #40

I hope Zov'ha doesn't have an eating disorder of some kind
