i used to think that my stomach was like a movie theater, and if i ate only one of anything it would be lonely. like going to the movies without a date. odd numbers were bad because there would always be one poor thing left over. to this day i still (if it's convenient, i'm not crazy-obsessive about it) tend to eat in multiples of two or four!
