Welcome

Hello and welcome to my blog, The Fussiest Eater.
I'm Rachel, a 21 year old student from England and a fifteen year long vegetarian. I've been a fussy eater for as long as I can remember, to the point where saying I was a vegetarian was just easier than explaining what I do and don't like.
But this year, things have changed somewhat. I've spent the 10 months abroad, in two rather grotty student halls which have led me to be somewhat experimental with my food, due to the horrible conditions of the kitchens. And, on top of this, I've been living in two countries (Germany and the Netherlands) where vegetarianism is more a sign you should be checked into a mental hospital than a life choice.
So, my current goals are to turn myself into more of a foodie. I love food, but only the foods I'm used to, so if that means straying away from the classic jacket potato with beans and cheese then so be it!
