Popsicle Stick Phobia?

Question

I think I have this weird texture phobia. Like, if I'm having a popsicle, and I bite into the wooden stick, it's like nails on a chalkboard. Seriously. I'll have to stop eating it. It's not like I'm SCARED of the stick, it's just really...grating. Am I the only one?

Answer 11

I just noticed the same thing about myself the other day!!!

Only, some sticks are different than others.

There are some, like DQ's Dilly Bars... I cant even eat all the ice cream cause Im afraid I'll lick the stick and taste the wood and the texture is like sand paper.

But some popsicles have those jokes on the stick, they seem to be a lot smoother, and they dont taste or smell like wood... so they dont bother me as much...

But honestly, I gagged the other day and had to run to the bathroom like I was going to vomit when I touched the stick..

So yeah, its different.. ITs not like a fear, but more like a disgust/dislike.... and I dont think youre a weird person for it...
