He has no likes or dislikes at all, nor does he have set meal times. He can eat anytime and anywhere. He doesn't refuse what is offered to him. Nik will eat it himself even if it is not served to him. It seems that he only shows off his hermit-like versatility and youth-like positivity when it comes to eating."[2]
