Strange food combinations

[Gypsy]

Butter, onion and sugar sandwiches. A kid I went to elementary school ate these everyday and I got up the courage to taste it one time...and one time only! Ewww!! The sugar and butter on their own would have been fine, but the onions just did me in!

Yeah. That would do it for me too. ICK.

BUT you reminded of a girl in my fifth grade class and her sandwiches. READY? Peanut butter, pickle and potato chip. The potato chips were in a separate bag and she would take the top bread off the sandwiches (and expose the pickles) and then crumple the chips right on there and eat it as one big squicky sandwich.

The combo sounds pretty yuck. Though on their own I love all the foods in that combo but together, ewwww.

This thread is making me feel simultaneously eeked out and hungry. Hmmm . . .

I feel so much better about my milk habit. DH can't stomach it when I drink milk with pizza, so that's the one time I just drink water, instead. Otherwise, he deals with it.

Haven- I love milk with everything!!! Especially pasta! My Italian hubby is utterly disguisted by the thought.

Peanut butter and bacon sandwiches!!!

Ooh!! I just thought of such a good one! My dad loves peanut butter, mayo and lettuce sandwiches. Apparently discovered when my grandma hurriedly put together the wrong sandwiches for the kid's lunches. My uncle got ham and jelly and my dad got PB, mayo and lettuce. And loved it!

This reminds me of my dad how once combined tuna salad sandwich with a peanut butter and jelly sandwich at a picnic when we were kids. We all say EEEEW, and I remember him saying that it all ends up mushed together in the stomach anyway!

My dad also has creative ideas for breakfast. He'll put scrambled eggs, banana, and jelly between toast,and call it his breakfast sandwich.

I must say that I am guilty of bacon & peanut butter sandwiches SO thinks its horrible, but he has YET to try it!

My mom used to make me butter and sugar sandwiches when i was younger and they were yum!!! Can't imagine onion on it though!

Omg, they are so, so, soooo good!!! I would get them in my lunch occasionally as a kid and I loved them!!! So fatty/crispy/creamy/salty/sweet and it has to be on really soft white bread. FI was weirded out by it at first, but hooked once he tried it! I have never know anyone else who knew about PB and bacon!!!

 

[tuffyluvr]

Trader Joe's sells chocolate-covered potato chips.

I have not yet tried them.
I want to but can't bring myself to buy them.

Mmmm... They're gooooooood!!!

My son likes to eat nori and drink milk at the same time

Okay. That's gross. You win.

 

[Deia]

Mayo sandwich....a girl I knew used ot eat these constantly, I was like eww...just mayo and bread, say what? I tried it and liked it...haven't had one in years!

I ordered friend chicken and waffles at Amy Ruth's in NYC (Harlem to be exact)...The Rev. Al Sharpton special. I was amazed at how well it worked together...maple syrup and all. Obviously a incredibly unhealthy lunch but OMG. It was the BEST friend chicken I have ever had. Not greasy at all, and the chicken super moist. Hmmm..I am hungry!

Milk! I don't even like to pour it for someone else to drink. I don't like to have it in the house. Grossest of all the gross things in the world.

This just makes me want one even more! It sounds sooooo good

I was reading this and thinking "I don't eat anything weird" then started to realize I definitely do!

Flufferella sandwich (i totally made this name up!)- peanut butter, marshmallow fluff, and nutella - and even better if you add bananas!
I think the weirdest thing, at least to other people, i'll eat is a tuna sandwich with swiss cheese and pepperoni!
And I don't think this is weird in the least either, but I eat spaghetti sanwiches all the time! Its just spaghetti with sauce on a peice of buttered white bread folded in half! It's probably my favorite thing in the whole world to eat!

You just reminded me of another facet of my Nutella obsession. Warm toast with peanut butter and Nutella. The heat melts the peanut butter, so everything is gooey. Perfect. I make it on whole grain toast, so I can fool myself that it isn't as incredibly unhealthy as it really is.

This is my new favorite thread. Everyone's contributions are so funny!

We're focusing on food ethics in my 101 class, and we started out the term writing food autobiographies. One of the things I shared that made my class squirm was that I eat my oatmeal with honey and raisins. For some reason, the raisins grossed them out.

DH eats fruit in his cottage cheese. I think that is so disgusting. Pineapple, berries, etc. Ugh.I eat cherry or grape tomatoes in my cottage cheese. YUMMO.

I hate fruit in salads, too. Except for apples. I'll eat apples in nearly anything.

Oh man, I had the best chicken and waffles at Roscoe's in LA last year. You're not kidding--that is the perfect combo.
And I don't usually like anything fried, other than potatoes.

I love jelly on my eggs -- when I was little I used to do it in secret because for some strange reason I thought I would get in trouble. My dad's "secret" to macaroni and cheese was a squirt of ketchup.

I love milk and will drink it with anything (I used to gross out my friends in college by getting a 32 oz milk from the cafeteria...kind of grosses me out now, come to think of it).

I love sweet and salty, so I love fries and milkshakes. Hated Mo's Bacon Bar although I expected to love it. Love fruit in salads. Had a delicious one this week with oranges and dates. I love dates. I love bacon wrapped dates. Jaleo in DC has fried bacon wrapped dates that may be the world's most perfect food. Here's a recipe for them.

I don't think any of these things are all that strange, but undoubtedly someone will!

My bf also likes fruit in cottage cheese, which in theory I'm ok with....but the ONLY fruit he'll eat in cottage cheese is bananas, i think it sounds TERRIBLE!!!

You know, I'm starting to think bacon and chocolate is something I could get into. Salty and sweet is YUM.

HI:

A shop in town makes gorgeous doughnuts--one is maple and bacon. (jelly modern doughnuts)

cheers--Sharon

 

[dragonfly411]

French Fries in chocolate icing.

 

[Lynnie]

For the cream cheese and jelly lovers - you HAVE to try poppers (the cream cheese kind) with grape jelly. YUM!!!

I dip my pickles in ketchup, too! I eat ketchup with a LOT of stuff - potatoes (even potato chips!), beef (not just hamburger, either), chicken, cheesesteaks (I live in Philly), eggs... mmmm I love me some ketchup!
I also like balsamic vinegar - straight - in salads, on deli sandwiches, to dip french fries or chips or bread or cheese... Unfortunately, I'm preggo and get heartburn with it anymore Not that it stops me - bring on the TUMS! haha

Chocolate covered bacon is to die for!!! Yummmm!!!!

THEY ARE SO GOOD! especially on bagels! I LOVE eating nutella, peanut butter, and sliced strawberry and banana sandwiches! ...

Roscoe's chicken and waffles . . . one of things I miss the most about LA.
