Do you play the “I don’t know what do you want for dinner?” game?

The never-ending food struggle continues! How often do you play the “What do you want for dinner?”, “I don’t know what do you want for dinner?” game? Never, Always, or Sometimes? Next Question: Do you check in with each other before making a big purchase? Back to the Beginning: Never, Always, or...

    I totally believe that a whole food diet without processed foods is the healthiest way to eat. Since I want him around as long as possible, I'm feeding him as healthy as possible, low sugar, low salt, fresh ingredients and 50 to 75% vegetarian

    Never.

    I'm the one who cooks, and I have weekly meal plans in place, so I always know what we're having. With having to juggle my postgrad studies, work, and now wedding planning, I haven't got time to be indecisive about what we're going to eat!

    This is the story of our lives. Like, this is what we get snippy about - "I don't want to THINK about it, you pick!!"

    Me right now lol. I try to plan out what to cook during the week (or Sunday or Monday make a huge batch of dinner so we have leftovers most of the week) but I never know what I feel like making haha.

    Always, especially when I don't wanna cook cause I know hes gonna be like come on babe we going out. lol.... But he does that atleast once a week anyway, but he is very considerate that I work and have to come home and cook... It frustrates him when I play the I don't know where I wanna go out to eat game. hahahahahahahaha

    Sometimes, but not often. He is the cook, so whatever he makes, I eat.

    We sometimes do this when neither of us are craving anything but we know we’re hungry and have to eat something.

    I’ll ask him what he wants for dinner and he’ll say he doesn’t know and then ask me the same thing and I don’t know. So, o guess the answer is yes! Though in recent years (since we got engaged in January) I usually just pull something out before I go to work or school and then tell him that’s what we’re having.

    Always. Always, always, always. And then the answer always ends up being tacos.

    We do this sometimes. Not always because I usually have cravings that are VERY specific hahaha. But if I don’t have a craving/taste for something we are totally lost lol. If it’s dinner out FH chooses the same places over and over and I usually say that again!! Haha. I deal with so many cravings I’m assuming that when I get pregnant I won’t have any cravings 🤷🏾‍♀️ Hahaha

    Sometimes we go back and forth but most of the time we know what we are having.
