The headline honestly downplays it a little - not only do they go to this restaurant every day but that is their only meal of the day. More than 80% of all the meals they have eaten for 15 years (20 now) have been identical.

I live in the czech republic and this is the way the older generation is here. Many older couples will have the same meal on the same day of the week every week. So not the same meal every day, but the same meal every Monday, a different one every Tuesday, etc. It's mind-numbing to me (I'm American) and these people tend to be outrageously inflexible in almost every aspect of their being.

Everytime I think of people repeating their eating habits, I think of "the boy who only ate sausage".

The human body is an incredible machine that can deal with all sorts of garbage coming in.

When I was young, a nephew of the same age as me who only ate Mayonnaise at the time. Maybe Mayonnaise on white bread, but that was it. Haven't seen or heard from him since we were young, but I am sure he grew out of it. Kids can be weird.
