Picky, Picky
I am a notoriously picky eater and I always have been. I don't eat what I don't like and that's a lot of stuff and its not random stuff like green peppers or peas. Most of my dislikes are hard to avoid. They include:

1. Bacon - NEVER! I even hate the smell of it!
2. Eggs - I do not want them scrambled. I don't want them over easy. The very thought of am omelet makes me really queasy.
3. Sausage patties or links - Yick! I can eat sausage on pizza or when its ground into something like lasagna. Strangely, I have no problem with smoked sausage. I don't hate pork. I'll have some ribs or a chop in a minute.
4. Mint - Peppermint, spearmint, any kind of mint. I don't even use mint flavored toothpaste. I use cinnamon instead. When people chew smelly mint flavored gum, it works my last nerves. This means no after dinner mints, no candy canes, none of it.
5. Maple syrup - Maybe it was all of those field trips out to Amish country as a kid but I hate maple syrup, maple candy and all things maple. I do like pancakes though as long as they are served with fruit or fruit-flavored syrups.
6. Butter - I do not slather it on bread or dump it on veggies. I cook with it but I don't add it on after the fact. However, I love movie theater popcorn with butter as long as its the fake butter.

As you can see, eating breakfast is quite a challenge. At IHOP, I always get strawberry pancakes with a side of smoked sausage. It's particularly annoying when I go home because although I've eaten this way my entire life, my dad insist on trying to get me to eat some disgusting bacon or sausage. Every time!

So should we ever meet, I prefer we go out for lunch or dinner. If you insist on taking me out for breakfast, we'll end up at IHOP or somewhere where they serve strawberry pancakes. I'll pass on the bacon burger and unless it's a cinnamon, I'll pass on that after dinner mint.
