Can Anyone Eat the Same Foods Without Getting Bored?

Post Reply New Topic

I eat the same things all the time and don't get board with it. I don't like a lot of food.

I can definitely eat the same thing everyday and be perfectly fine with it. Good thing too with the cost of college and living.

Potatoes, pasta, foods containing cheese, minced beef, fish, sausages, bacon, fruit or chocolate are foods I could never get sick of. Bread and pies are other food stuff I could eat repeatedly, but because of my IBS, I am much more restricted with these as I am with high fat foods such as burgers or pizza.

Unvaried menu topic

Eating the same amount of the same food that I cook means weight and budget balance. No nasty taste usrprises, either.

Yes, I can easily eat the same food over and over again without getting bored for as long as a month at the maximum....
I would eventually get bored and start picking something else.... but as long as I love it, I'm not fussed.

"The same things" is kind of a vague category. If your menu consists of a dozen dishes rotated randomly, that's not really 'the same thing' all the time.

I find trying to survive on SSDI, I'm left little choice. Thanks to Uncle Sam forcing me to pay for government medical insurance I can't afford, I subsist primarily on Ramen noodles, canned vegetables and hot dogs (thank the gods for condiments). There's more sodium in my diet right now than ever before in my life. Now, after being healthy as a horse for 50 years, I'm going to need medical insurance as my arteries become clogged with salt.

I much prefer to stick to the foods I'm comfortable with. Breakfast is never solid, it's always a shake, a juice or a cup of tea. Dinner is (veggie) pasta, lasagne, shepherd's pie, once in a while a very soft nut roast. Other than that I eat soup. Ideally, I only have the two meals a day, breakfast and dinner, late.

I'd eat pizza and pasta all the time if I could. In fact I probably will when I live on my own.

I'll eat the same thing for a long time. Then suddenly I'll find it to have a horrid taste, and not eat it for a month or two.

yeah I eas peanut butter and jelly every morning. For luch I eat the same kind of sandwich every day. Dinner is a rotation of 4 different meals with a 5th one thrown in every once in a while (pork chops). I also have eaten about 2 boxes of Cheez-Its a week since I can remember.

Yes. My parents have been cooking burgers for dinner at least 2 or 3 nights a week for the past several months. I never get tired of eating burgers. We don't eat a wide variety of other foods, either - when we're not eating burgers, we're either eating spaghetti, tacos or pizza. Again, I never get tired of these things.

My Father already does that. He will eat the same things every day, probably till he dies. Not because he's dieting or anything, he just prefers those foods. He's done it for over a decade or longer. He might have a microwaved hamburger, or have white gravey on toast for lunch. If it's chili or fried beef hash and potato, he'll have salteen crackers. For dinner, he usualy prefers the same things. My sister feels annoyed with it sometimes, because she gets bored of certain foods very quikly. The vegies and fruit he prefers to be aged.

monday- friday my wife steams so vegies and then scrambles eggs with the vegies and sometimes puts some cheese on top, and thats our breakfast, weekends gets a little more elaborate- but always the same- hashbrowns, eggs and toast, sometimes with ham, bacon or sausages.
suppers we alternate between beef, pork , chicken, fish, nobody really likes leftovers in our house, so we try to cook only enough
lunches we all make our own, we don't like the same things
my younger daughter has cereal all week for breakfast and then our breakfast on the weekends, for lunches during the week she has been eating the same thing for probably the last at least 17 years- cheese, ham and crackers (only cheddar, black forest and ritz- god forbid), one of four fruits, and broccoli and carrots with ranch dip -only. For supper she eats the meat item we have cooked and most meals she has a baked (can only be baked) potato, and salad (it used to be only spinach mixed with blue cheese dressing- but she has expanded her tastes to include caesar salad- this only last year- but amazingly we have been able to get her to eat chicken caesar salad and sometimes even in a wrap

This is so interesting, I eat the same foods most every day. Abt 3 nights a week I vary the dinner. I don't gert bored with it, instead I find it comforting. I do the same thing with clothes (except for the underwear).

Yea sometimes

I eat the same foods and flavours most of the time. I have fresh chillies or asian chilli sauce at maximum heat level (!) on everything except porridge or fruit. If I vary the food, I still douse everything in the chillies - so the texture alters but the flavour remains consistent and just how I like it.
I am very restricted and routined in my eating habits.
