Food (redux??)

Tito's Kitten · 02-23-2005, 03:19 AM

Okay since I read that whole "corn dog redux" and it seems people like to eat weird things, what I want to know is what is the weirdest thing that you eat that others find either uber repulsive, odd, gross etc. but you think is the greatest tasting thing on earth?? (I don't know if this thread has been done before but oh well.....)

For me, I think the weirdest is when we have a family gathering, I make my homemade potato salad, which is so tasty, and I find that dipping Nacho Cheese Doritos into the sald (like a dip) is soooooo good.

And hey, nothing too easy like McDonalds fries dipped in a vanilla cone. (Which I have to say is good too.)

-Fries with blue cheese dressing, nothing new.
-McDonalds Fries with Cheeseburgers togeather
-Penutbutter and Honey sandwiches
-i love real crispy Cornbeef hash!

I don't know, I guess I'm not an adventurous eater...

When I was little I used to love dill pickles dipped in pancake syrup. Kinda sour, kinda sweet..kinda good!

Miracle Whip sandwhiches...just MW and bread! Sometimes add Lays Potato Chips onto the sandwhich...yummy!

Mozzarella cheese and ketchup...tastes like a pizza.

Peanut Butter and Karo Syrup sandwhiches....still eat these, sometimes!

Spaghetti with canned Wolf brand chili..and ketchup!

McD's Fries dipped in an uber gross looking mix of ketchup and mayonaisse.

And looks like this may turn into another thread for me to avoid like the plague.

I love fry sauce for my fries too!

A sausage McMuffin with the hash brown in the sandwich

I use cottage cheese as a dip for bbq potato chips

Hash browns with onions, meat(sausage, bacon or ham) and topped with cheddar cheese, sometimes I put sour cream on top Yumm!

I've been known to dip my bacon or sausage in maple syrup at breakfast when I have pancakes or french toast

It's not so much that I have one kind of food or food combo that I love and others find disgustiong, so much as I'm a fan of the Thanksgiving Mix style of eating. 8 times out of 10, I can pretty much gather samples from everytying on my plate onto one fork bite. Peas, sweet potatoes, chicken, salad...all in one fork bite.

Not always, but usually I can do this. And it sometimes grosses people out. Probably reminds them of offal. I'm like a pig at a trough.

Wouldn't be a weird food thread without me mentioning ketchup sandwiches. Ketchup and white bread, mmm.

This actually sounds really good, and I'm not a big fan of cottage cheese either.

These threads always make me try something weird and new.

Well, to start with, I loooove sushi and I know that for some people, sushi is the ultimate in disgusting. I love eel, salmon skin rolls, tuna, yellowtail, halibut, sea urchin, soft shelled crabs, etc... I also love oysters on the half-shell.

If you want more unique culinary oddities though, I can go there too...

- I like fried shrimp, dipped in a combination of ketchup and mayonnaise. It started as a kid with TV dinners and never stopped.

- I haven't done a ketchup sandwich but I've done more than a few mayonnaise sandwiches on a kaiser roll. Again, started as a little kid.

- I'm with Borneo on the crispy corned beef hash, the stuff out of the can that my chef roommate fondly refers to as "dog food". Love the stuff and am always delighted when I see it at a breakfast buffet. I think I'm the only one that eats it.

- Love peanut butter and honey sandwiches as well, but I also like to slice banana on them. I don't fry them though (with bacon), ala Elvis Presley.

- elbow macaroni and tomatos (the crushed in-a-can kind) with some black pepper. Nothing more, nothing less.

As most of this stuff is far from healthy, I try to avoid it all. Still, every once in a while you get those cravings for comfort foods.

Oooo! Me too! We've been eating this since I was a little kid! My Mom used to fix it as a side dish! Yummm! It's great comfort food!

Peanut butter on Eggo waffles with maple syrup!
