Unusual things you like to eat or drink others might find odd

I like to eat potato chips with an apple. One of my all time favorite snacks.

I can totally dig that, one of my Dads favorite snacks was an Apple, Townhouse Crackers and a huge block of Colby Cheese. Back in the day when Cheese came in the size of a can, and was vacuum sealed in wax{anyone else remember that}?.

That is a New England type of thing, apples and cheese

I absolute don't recommend this but, my grandfathers treat was raw hamburger and mustard sandwich. He would only do it when grandmother went to town and bribe me with orange slices not to tell.

*I didn't know they were vacuum sealed, but I do recall round ,about 16oz. FOOD Can sized, rolls of waxed wrapped cheese,as you'd soon learn to discard all the wax rings after slicing& before eating*

That sounds really odd... sweet or dill?

Ok, I save that as well and cook pasta noodles. Butter, salt, pepper and pickle juice as a dressing.

Poor man's

it works.

Microwaved frozen samosa. Some people may hate it, but I love it.

Dill

Thats a very interesting texture. sounds insane but, i think I could do it. Peanut butter and pickle...

 

[Reverend Conehead]

I remember when I lived in Germany, people thought it was weird that I would mix tuna and mayonnaise, something that's an American standard. They also found it weird that I like drinks super cold and would put ice cubes in the drink to make it that way. Again, normal in the USA, considered weird over there.

Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches.

I started putting hamburger dill chips on a peanut butter sammich when I was a kid and I will still do it only I've advanced to sour pickles slices and pickled jalapenos.

I am into contrast flavors and one of my favorite snacks is homemade pickled jalapeno halves stuffed with chunky peanut butter. I also put peanut butter on apples and cheddar cheese on a slice of apple or even better, hot apple pie is great.

When I was a kid, I ate sliced tomato sandwiches with Tobasco until, I discovered Louisiana Hot Sauce. Now, that's all I eat and especially like it on popcorn. I ate sliced pineapple and Miracle Whip sammiches as well. All of this, of course, on white bread.

One thing about growing up in the 50's/60's that wasn't great was the lack of variety of food. Lettuce, you could have any as long as it was iceberg and if you were lucky, leaf. Steaks? Bone in ribeye? Fugidaboutit, round steak, the father of jerky, sirloin and the occasional splurge on a thin t-bone. Fruit? Apples were green or red. Fish? Came in sticks.

We ate cold bologna and hot dogs without asking what was in them and a can of Vienna sausage and a jar of mustard was a fine meal. Spam or Treat, fried crispy on white bread with horseradish mustard, onions and pickles was heaven sent.

Roasted bone marrow... Not something I eat on a regular basis; in fact, I have tried only a couple of times. Both times I tried it (my wife prepared it while I drank bourbon), I thought this is pretty good, especially since it is essentially fat. Admittedly, the bourbon may have slanted my view of bone marrow.

This has been a very interesting thread, to say the least. A lot of you guys do have special tastes. I don't think I have any weird foods I eat as I'm a meat and potatoes kind of guy, but I do like canned meat like Spam, Vienna sausages, and potted meat. My wife will gag when I open a can one of those. When I was a kid I loved pouring a half a bottle of syrup (or more) in a bowl and using bread to soak it up, slice by slice. I could easily go through a full loaf of bread doing that. It's no wonder I'm a diabetic now.

Serious question!! Has anyone found a way to enjoy Chitterlings? I try it once and it tasted like **** smells. Old country boy would like to know.

Bourbon, or whiskey in general, makes everything better and if it doesn't, that's because you haven't had enough.

Remember the first time you accidentally got syrup on your bacon or sausage? Never an accident again, was it?

My most recent and tasty application of Maple syrup is life changing, at least at dinner time.

Toss some halved Brussels sprouts in olive oil with plenty of kosher salt and pepper, put cut side down on a baking sheet and sprinkle small cubed pancetta all around and roast that until charred and crispy. Now toss that with Maple syrup and begin scarfing. I don't even have that as a side dish anymore, that's an entree.

I do this also. Not just pickle juice but a lot of other picking juices as well.
