If you are eating a roast dinner what part do you eat first?

[redrhubarb]

I know this is completely random but it occurred to me earlier that whenever I have a roast dinner I always start by eating the vegetables. Dp will eat some meat first, same as dd. Just wondered if anyone else always eats a particular part first ?

Veg. I like to save the meat to last. As the saying goes - save the best for last

Always eat the veg first, as does my daughter. Used to drive my wife mad.

the roast potatoes with bits of the rest of the dinner (ie a bit of meat a bit of veg a bit of gravy) all scooped in together on my fork

Roasties and Yorkshire pudding first

I take a bit of each.

Bit of meat, toastie and Yorkshire

Not had a roast dinner in ages.

A bit of everything/most things in every bite. There is no way I could ever eat things one at a time. I have no idea why I feel so strongly about this!

Veg, lentil roast, yorkie, roasties, roasted parsnips inter dispersed...

Carrots first, then meat and potatoes, save the Yorkshire for last. Everything must be swimming in gravy.

Gravy on every forkful 

Meat, broccoli and cauli, roasties, any other veg, yorkie last to mop up the juices.

I want Roast now

Veg first, then roast potatoes, meat and Yorkshire pudding saved til last

Always start with the veg because I was always told to eat it first as a child and save the best (meat) till last..

Skin.

I can never understand eating one thing at a time so the answer is- all of it!

Carrots and mash, get them gone, then enjoy whatever is left.

A bit of everything as in all food. I am odd though in that the vegetables are the main event for me. And I don’t like gravy.

Veggies with stuffing.

But I like a bit of everything in each mouthful.

Always veg first, then potatoes, then meat, then crackling/skin. Then I do it all over again

This is how I eat all my meals actually, veg then carbs, then the best bits!

Me and dp argue about this constantly. I always eat my favourite bit of the dinner first when it’s nice and hot, whereas he says you should leave the beat bit til last. I don’t understand why you would do that? What if you were too full by the time you got to the best bit? Makes no sense.

@HalfBloodPrincess That has just reminded me of what my teenage boyfriend said about Rolos. You shouldn;t give someone your last rolo, you should give them your first because that is the tastiest and most anticipated

I eat veg first then a mash up of meat and potatoes with yorkshire last.

Roasties.

I'll flit from veg to meat to roast potatoes and back again. I have stuffing with each forkful. I always make sure that my last mouthful is my favourite part - usually roast potato but if we have pork it's the crackling. I really fancy a roast now!

Not really sure! Bit of everything I think. Love a good old roast!
