Reply #22: Not only do I eat like that, [View All]

...but I listen to music like that too. I can play the same CD for hours a day, days on end... and never grow tired of it. Because every time I'm finding something new in the sound... a lick of an improv backbeat here, a vocal nuance there, an extra sixteenth note I hadn't really noticed before...

The food though, it's not new every time. But I think when I'm eating the same stuff over and over it's because my thoughts are sufficiently scattered and focused elsewhere such that the food doesn't matter, as long as it tastes okay and isn't distracting from the really interesting stuff going on in my brain.

Sometimes food is entertainment, and sometimes it's fuel. For me, most of the time, it's just fuel.
