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

[HungryLion]

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.

It was similar when I was in Rwanda. I remember my first night there I was at a hotel and went to the restaurant/bar in the hotel. I ordered a beer and they were like “do you want it cold or warm?” I was like warm? No thanks lol

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

No truer words have ever been spoken on this forum.

That's like drinking warm beer in England. It's like a whole stein of the bottom of the can!

grits I always thought were versatile enough to make dinner or desert. Like Shrimp and grits or a sweet version with fruit.

Butter, salt and pepper. That's it for grits. Don't like sweet corn bread either. If you are going to do that make a dang cake!

Waiting on the people that have had snake, Bear, gator, Ostridge, Possum, Beaver and Snails. Can't wait. I'm afraid! I know you guys are out there.

fried snake and gator is no big deal just kinda expensive depending where you are.

The bear was jerky and it was nothing special.

I don't eat snails.

A friend of mine raised ostridge and said it was excellent table fare.

My dad was a pig feet and pig lips fan but then again he also ate turnips.



soft shell turtle was like snake and gator but they are hard to clean
and so hard to find they are probably a protected species now

Coon, turtle?

I liked turnips raw when i was a kid. Then one day my smart arse cousin came over with a potato gun you used hair spray to fire. We stuffed turnips in the gun a fired them. well, we broke the windshield out f a car passing by and well, I don't want to talk about it.

I tried gator tail once. It was rubbery and slightly fishy tasting. I didn't enjoy it.

I will eat food out of the can sometimes. Ravoli,Chili,Soup,Peas,

*Cannibal sandwich* they weren't unheard of back in the 50's*


I save my dill pickle jar juice & pull a hefty snort from the fridge,,,all the time

Pepperoncini juice too and pickled jalapeno juice. I use them in Bloody Marys, Margaritas and Micheladas and just started using pickled jalapeno juice in making slaw.

I had two uncles, accent on the had, that ate the raw hamburger as steak tartare with a raw egg yolk in the middle.

What's interesting is that our safe food practices back then were non-existent, cutting boards, if used at all, were petri dishes but you didn't hear about food borne illnesses to the degree we do today. And we are overdue for another romaine or spinach recall because we haven't learned putting a pig farm and lettuce farm next to each other is not a good idea.

 

[CouchCoach]

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

Pepperoncini juice is outstanding. So is cherry pepper juice.

I've had it blackened by some crazy coonasses and it was really tasty. However, the chitlins were seven kinds of nasty. Put one in your mouth and you could feel your heart closing.

I can concur sir. very good. We use Pepperoncini in roasts in the crock pot all the time.

If I take a bite of cornbread and it is sweet I spit it out

I dip my pizza in yellow mustard. I also mix it in with mac & cheese.

A loaf of French bread grilled until it's crusty and dipped in A1 is one of my favorite deer camp meals.
