Food you love but is a pain in the arse to eat

[GnomeThief]

Burritos. The kind they serve you at Mexican restaurants that are a foot long and smothered with burrito sauce and melted cheese. They're so messy for me to eat, but I can't stop myself from ordering one every time I go.

Anything that sticks to the plate, like chocolate cake.

Or peas. You get them less than two inches from your mouth then they roll off your spoon.

Crab: DAMMIT BREAK SHELL!!! Oh, look meat...MMMM Damn that is good... DAMMIT BREAK SHELL, I NEED MORE MEAT!!.

Pomegranate: Seeds... Peeling the seeds off.... still doing it... eat some... Gah, got juice on my shirt... shit... more seeds... 10 min later: THE JUICE IS EVERYWHERE!!!

Those god-damned chocolate coins. I wish I didn't bite my nails.

 

[reyttm4]

Anything that takes longer than a minute to prepare.

So true.
My other choice would be grapefruits. Its really annoying having to get all the skin off and then most of the white stuff and for me a good presentation never happens, then when I'm eating if I have cuts in my lips they get all up in them and hurt like a *****, then afterwards I look down and there's a sea of juice going down my shirt and my hands are all sticky. I honestly dont know why I continue to eat them

Grapes with seeds. Yay for the seedless kind.

Where do they get the seeds for seedless grapes? Hrmmm.....

Anyway, back on topic, all individually wrapped sweet-boxes (Celebrations, After-eights etc) are a pain in the arse to eat because of the sheer, utter mass of wrappers you accumulate by the time your stomach is lined with chocolate goodness. However the mass of the wrappers is directly proportionate to how many chocolates you've eaten. So it just never freaking ends.

Michigan Hot Dogs. It's hard to eat it without wearing it but they taste so damn good.

 

[Arcadia2000]

Coconut. Requires either caveman tools or power tools to get into, makes a mess, and not so much on the inside for all the effort. And hard to tell from the outside whether or not you got a good one or not. -_-'

Also, I cut my spaghetti up. Because I don't have time to deal with that nonsense. When I'm hungry I'm not one for worrying whether or not my noodle is gonna make it from plate to mouth. Make into tiny pieces and scoop with impunity. Yum.

 

[TopHatTim]

Pistachios. After breaking a few open my fingers start to hurt, and it's even worse when the shell's completely closed, making you resort to biting on it. If they weren't so delicious I wouldn't bother.

god damned pistachios...pain in the arse to eat, always prying them apart with your fingers.
then theres the bastards that just dont open like they've been concreted shut..

 

[ntomlin63]

They're called CRAWfish thank you very much. And yes, they are both the most delicious food ever AND the biggest pain in the ass to eat.

Wiki says you can use either
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crayfish

They come from Louisiana, so we here in Louisiana get to name them. And we named them crawfish.

I grew up calling em crawdads and you folks in Louisiana called them mudbugs I thought?

 

[Damien the Pigeon]

Really any kind of crustacean. Crabs, lobster, crayfish, etc.

So tasty, but soooo much work!

Michigan Hot Dogs. It's hard to eat it without wearing it but they taste so damn good.

Spoiler: hot dog

Dude, I don't even like hot dogs, and I really, really want to eat that. Drool....

 

[The Inconsistant Cookie]

Toffee and Curly Wurlys.

I love them both but they stick like god damn glue.

Also, for some strange reason I like opening pistachios, it's almost thereputic for me and the nut itself tastes quite nice.

 

[AkJay]

BBQ ribs/chicken, soooo good, but very messy =X

 

[TheSapphireKnight]

King Crab is a real pain to eat sometimes.

 

[Ophiuchus]

I'm far too lazy to eat anything that requires a lot of effort... always going for a takeaway or something that I can just throw in the oven and leave for 20 minutes, even if it means eating the same thing every day. Which it usually does. Also, I really hate seafood, so I don't have to worry about that.

I guess the aromatic crispy duck from the Chinese takeaway is the most awkward thing I eat... wrapping it up with vegetables in those really thin pancakes that always split.

 

[Ago Iterum]

People, with all the complaining and what not.

 

[Zombie_Fish]

Children. First you have to get them away from their parents, take them to a special restaurant...
Wait hours and hours...
Ugh, it's just not worth it.

On an actual note, I hate eating food. I seriously do.

Also, depending on the quality of the children, it can taste disgusting.

Vin Diesel and Godzilla are also a pain to eat as well though (Have you ever tried making roast Godzilla, takes forever in the oven and by the time it's cooked all the way through, the skin's so tough you can't get into it ).

 

[Mardy]

Dried sheep meat, ah such a long time for it to actually dry completely. Then I need it shipped to me. Otherwise I don't like eating much.

 

[Frank_Sinatra_]

Pomegranates, simply getting the seeds out of the thing is a lot of messy annoying and tasty work...

Don't forget they stain really bad.
It will never come out!

 

[Mstrswrd]

Cheeseburgers. You might think "why is that a pain in the arse?" Well, lactose intollerance quit literally makes it a pain in the arse.
