Welcome to a new regular post on Mamamia.
You know how some days you want to get involved in the conversation but you just don’t have the brain power at the time to sink into deep and heavy? Well the Just Asking post will help you through that. We post a quick question and you answer it. Simple. And Fun.
Today’s question is inspired by Julie Goodwin who tweeted “I am curious – if you could only eat food beginning with one letter for the rest of your life, what letter would you choose?”
Over to you. Choose one letter and tell us why
(and thanks Julie for the inspiration)

I love this! I never have time to join in during the day and there’s no point at night cos all the comments are done! This is fun

I’ll join the C crowd, and my contributions to the list are Camellia sinensis (tea) and corn chips.
Unfortunately cauliflower also starts with C, so maybe I can get out of it by calling it a Brassica…??
loading...
My first thought was M — i am craving a mango right now.
then I knew it had to be P for pizza and pasta
then of course I realised chips, cheese and chicken are also delicious.
:- S
loading...
You could refer to chicken as poultry and claim chips as potato! Not sure on the cheese though..
loading...

Cheese, Champagne, Chocolate, Crustaceans, Chorizo, Cake, Chips, Cookies, Cream, Cheesecake, Cannelloni, Croissants, Capers, Chicken…

C – chocolate, cheese, crustaceans, cows, cheese, celery, carrots, choi-sum, chia, crackers, did I mention cheese?

I have more recipes on my blog featuring a ‘C’ ingredient than any other letter of the alphabet.
And now off to get a dose of category C COFFEE
loading...
C for chocolate and CARBS. Carbs pretty much encompass everything I like eating = winner!
loading...
I pick the letter R.
It doesn’t necessarily mean that I’m a fan of food beginning with the letter R.
It means that as I eat whatever it is, as it goes down my throat and hits my tummy I want to be thinking, ” R……that tastes good ” !
loading...
C = carbs + all the other good stuff everyone else has mentioned
loading...
Can I go with G for gluten-free? (damn coeliac disease!)
loading...
I’ll join you!
But the silver lining, as I confirmed with my dr when diagnosed, is that we can still eat chocolate and drink coffee, so the world is not really a bad place.
loading...
S for “some of this, some of that, some chips, some broccoli…”
loading...
P- potatoes, pasta, pizza, pumpkin, pancakes, paprika (ok so that’s a spice), Persian food!
