    -Sometimes I haven't eaten Thai food in a long time and although it feels lame to order Pad Thai it's what Thai food means to me and I don't want to take a risk on something else my first time back.

    -Sometimes I think I dislike a broccoli but it turns out it was because my parents overcooked it but when I have it at my favorite restaurant it's awesome.

    -Sometimes who makes the food is more important than the food itself.

    -Sometimes no matter who makes it I don't like the food.

    -Sometimes the recipe is so easy and good it comes out great every time!

    -Sometimes the recipe sucks but the food is amazing I just can't replicate it with these directions.

    -Sometimes I'm not allergic but the way I act may make you think I am!

    -Sometimes I think I don't like something but it's because I associate that food with a bad memory.

    -Sometimes I want to experience new things. I've chosen a restaurant I love and try a different item on the menu every time I go there to see what I may be missing.

    -Sometimes I'm so hungry I just don't care!

    -Sometimes I'll eat something I don't like because that's what my friends are eating and we are hanging out.

    -Sometimes I'm a professional cook and very picky about food due to my overly intimate knowledge or overexposure.

    -Sometimes I want quantity!

    -Sometimes I want quality!

    -Sometimes I own a restaurant and am biased on my food tastes because I depend on them.

    -Sometimes I have a political or morale agenda that affects what I choose to eat.

    -Sometimes I just don't have the time to cook at home.

    -Sometimes I can't afford certain foods.

    -Sometimes I'm a nutritionist and I just know too much I can't eat certain things!

    -Sometimes I've only eaten burgers, fries, hotdogs, and chicken fingers and didn't really ever consider eating anything else.

    -Sometimes people try to break down why we like certain things and I just want to eat!

    -Sometimes I'm a cook and I can take something most people hate and make it taste awesome!

    -Sometimes people keep getting confused when they try to make it on their own and it sucks.

    -Sometimes I like to measure my ingredients.

    -Sometimes I wing it!

    - Sometimes John sneezes in my food and I'm like "Jesus dude, could you turn your head next time" and he's like "Dude, try it anyway" and then I do and it kinda makes me sick, but it tastes good anyway.

    Sometimes the leftovers taste better than the meal.

    Sometimes overenthusiastic reviews and word-of-mouth build hype around the cuisine of some restaurant, then you go try yourself and discover it's not so special at all.

    Sometimes, the exact opposite of the above happens.

    Sometimes I try to recreate an awesome meal I enjoyed years ago, and I get something completely different, and I can't tell which of John's "sometimes" applies.

    Sometimes I just feel like improvising and cooking with what I have in the fridge at the time.

    Sometimes you go and eat MacDonalds because you think you want it, but you get a queasy bloated feeling afterwards and your shit just won't move the next day.

    Sometimes you don't recognize the smell of yeast in the potato soup you forgot to put in the fridge the day before and you have to leave class because you puke too much.

    Luckily I failed to cover a game experience with that sentance.

    Sometimes you serve up a weird dish to your friends just to watch them squirm. Sometimes they actually like it and want more.

    Sometimes you just gorge on chocolate all day long and end up with a stomach ache the day after.

    - Sometimes one of your friends serve you something he says is really awesome and it makes you sick. You puke and puke and tell your friend to go fuck himself and never serve you that shitastic food again. And then you don't talk for a while, but then you just get so hungry again and you're like, "hey, my friend can cook".

    - And then sometimes, you make the same shit for your friends, because you think you're like teh bestest cook evar.

    Sometimes I dream about a gourmet feast, but when I actually get to eat one it all tastes sorta bland.

    Sometimes I keep cooking the same stuff for your friends over and over, hoping that you'll get good enough at it that you can have served that one pinnacle meal, something to remember, so that you can move on to try something new.

    Sometimes I read about a recipe that sounds really good, but when you cook it it tastes off, and you can't figure out what step you missed.

    Sometimes I eat bad food because I was invited to eat it by someone I don't hate.

    Even though I'm a vegan, sometimes I eat food I wouldn't normally on ethical principals because I don't have to cook it and I'm lazy.

    Sometimes you eat (or, actually, usually drink) something that all the prestigious critics say is marvelous, and while you choke it down your brain tries to sort out whether the critics are all in on some big practical joke at your expense or if they've just been suckered by the same joke.

    I'm more happy to put up with food mediocrity than gaming badness. I have many more meals than games but with only about 40 gaming sessions a year, they'd better be good.

    Sometimes a meal at home with a small number of your best friends is better than going to a banquet could ever be.

    Sometimes you like to eat at home where you're comfortable, but sometimes it's nice to go somewhere big and expensive.

    Sometimes the most pleasant experience comes not from the food itself, but from the people you are eating with.

    Sometimes you find a great recipe and really want to cook it eventually but you never do.

    Sometimes I put a lot of work and effort into a home-cooked meal and I realize when I'm eating it that some fast food tastes just as good (if not better) and also would have saved me a lot of time.

    Sometimes I eat food because it's there and that's what it is for.

    Sometimes I crave for one particular dish, and the craving can last for weeks, up until I am able to finally eat that one course.

    Sometimes I am very hungry, but I just can't decide what would I want to eat.

    All of the time, I fetishize my utensils. I have more spoons than I could ever need.

    Sometimes I buy food because of the picture on the box... but what you get inside doesn't look or taste anywhere near as good.

    Sometimes I see magazines with food in them and the pictures look fabulous but you know they've sprayed varnish on the ham and dyed the strawberries and anyway the recipes are ridiculously complicated or take rare and expensive ingredients you have to go hunting through specialty shops for and all of that stuff is just to impress your guests with what a fashionable housekeeper you are and nobody could do that day after day year after year it's a fantasy of food they're selling food porn smiling and winking at you from the glossy covers.

    Sometimes I wanna eat really bad but don't want to get fat(ter) so I pull out an RPG and pretend that I'm eating.
