I like the combination of smell, taste, texture, temperature and getting special cravings like salty or sweet met.

I like the creaminess of eggs, potatoes, and bananas; the chewiness of meat and bagels; I love apples and oranges and other fruits that are so juicy they explode and dribble down your chin when you bite into them (and that's saying a lot as I don't care for "messy" food).

I like using my teeth; to pull the flesh off a artichoke that's been dipped in butter or mayonnaise, or my jaw's strength; crunching nuts or chewing some tougher meats. I like the softness of cheese and how it gets softer and softer the warmer it gets in your mouth.

I like playing with food too, shaping bread into moist pellets, using my tongue to smash potato chips against the roof of my mouth, peeling or freezing seedless grapes before I eat them.
