Plate-turner

N. A person with the odd dining habit of eating each item on their plate in its entirety before rotating the plate and eating the next one.
I was a plate-turner as a child: had to eat all of my pork chop first, then all of the green beans, then the mashed potatoes, rotating the plate each time so the next food item was directly in front of me.
