popsicle, ice cream, corn dog sticks... anything like that drives me insane, not even nails on a chalkboard gets me- but as humorous as it is to my children to freak me out with it, a wooden popsicle stick grinding against teeth makes me nuts. I am looking to see if there is a name for this...

I have a fear of foods on sticks, like corn dogs or popsicles. When I was younger, I was eating a popsicle and somehow got a splinter in my gums. Now I cannot eat anything on a stick.

I can never finish food I've snagged from my mother; sweets in particular. I recall one day during lunch I'd happened to bring a bagfull of oatmeal cookies I'd absconded with the day before my mother took off on her flight to New Orleans. ... However, when I set into the bag, I found it near impossible to finish, as I was wholly convinced that to finish the bag would be to kill my mother. ... I *still* can't finish a bag of oatmeal cookies to this day.
