What is your favorite weird food?

I love Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches. The pickles have to be dill - not sweet, or bread and butter pickles.
Sometimes, if I'm feeling "spicy", I add some chinese hot oil. Yum.

Favorite depression chaser.

Take a graham cracker, spread with peanut butter, sprinkle on chocolate chips, top with miniature marshmallows. Nuke for about 30 or so seconds...down with glass of cold milk....

Well this is not something I have eaten recently, but while in port in the Philippines during my Navy days, I tried balut. The taste wasn't bad - think hard boiled egg like, but the texture was not the best - think crunchy hard boiled egg.

Sometimes I crave, and must have a fried bologna sandwich with yellow mustard and thin sliced dill pickles.

Cut up bananas, wrap them in bacon with toothpicks and sautee/fry until well done...eat together...awesome!.

Funny thing is I won't eat uncooked bananas or plantains nor bacon (that type) unless cooked this way.

Sounds like a bunch of pregnant people on this thread with these strange concoctions...funny...

Chicken nuggets dipped in Ranch dip made with sour cream, that I mix half and half with salsa.
I also like macaroni and cheese and ketsup

My favourite food -

Boiled egg on top of layers of vegemite - all on richly lathered buttered toast.

My favourite concoction has to win hands down...

A pancake made from thin slices of aubergine fried in gluten-free batter. Topped with a layer of Tahini, sauerkraut, thinly-sliced peppadews and sweet and sour sauce. HHHMMMMM!

Jamaican Ginger cake with spanish chorizo sausage, try it, It's a taste sensation.

I guess mine isn't too weird, but a lot of people give me a weird look over the fact that I love pork rinds. I like the kind that comes in the bag, and I love the kind that comes on bacon. I just love me some pork rinds.

I can't eat pizza unless I can have a glass of white milk to go with it.

While I was pregnant, I liked to eat those little gerkin
sweet pickles with peanut butter.

Wait. I used to take a glass, put a muffin in it, fill with milk, add 2 spoons of brown sugar, and eat the result with a spoon. Sometimes I added syrup.
Then I discovered how much sugar that was in my Thing so I stopped eating those.

Freeze it, so it gets soft.
Then BBQ the legs and when they're done, squeeze a lemon over them and enjoy.

speaking of pickles, next time you're at a restaurant and you get a burger with those thinly sliced dill pickles and fries, take one of the pickles and wrap it around a fry, then, squirt ranch on top of it. my mouth is watering just talking about it

You should try some fried pickles then, sometime...

I like the combination of eating a dill pickle while drinking Orange Powerade Zero. For some reason, the two tastes combine to make a really refreshing feeling...way more than a York Peppermint Patty.

I'm sure most of my fellow Americans are going, "What the heck is vegemite?" Google if you must, but those of us in the 80's who listened to Men At Work know what it is... You're better off not knowing, hehe...

Here is the description of Wikipedia:


''Vegemite ( /ˈvɛdʒɨmaɪt/ VEJ-ə-myt)[1][2] is a dark brown Australian food paste made from yeast extract. It is a spread for sandwiches, toast, crumpets and cracker biscuits, and filling for pastries. It is similar to British, New Zealand and South African Marmite, Australian Promite and Swiss Cenovis.

Vegemite is made from used brewers' yeast extract, a by-product of beer manufacturing, various vegetables, wheat and spice additives. It is salty, slightly bitter, and umami or malty – similar to beef bouillon. The texture is smooth, and the product is a paste. It is not as intensely flavoured as British Marmite and it is less sweet than the New Zealand version of Marmite.''

Doesn't seem that bad...

pickle juice poured into a beer. Yum!

It is good, but it's one of those things that if you've never had it it's almost impossible to describe what it tastes like. Very rich and salty... Yeah it's impossible to describe. In Aust we have the regular vegemite, smooth vegemite which is a blend of butter and vegemite, and Cheesymite, a mix of Kraft cheddar and Vegemite, my personal favourite.

Anyway, two favourites of mine, speaking of vegemite.

Slices of Edam, Parmesan and Colby cheese, on a base of toast with vegemite, grilled to just melting. The mixed flavours of cheese with the sharp bite of vegemite is unbelievable.

Another is what I call the Lasagne Pancake.

Take as many pancakes as you feel for the dish (I usually use 5-6), make them about 9 inches (20-25cm) diameter. Make up minced beef with any pasta sauce you see fit (bolognese is my personal choice), the same way you would make spaghetti beef sauce. When ready layer the pancakes one a at time, laying a strip of minced beef, with grated mozerella and parmesan cheese inbetween. Keep going until you reach the top layer, lay a pancake on top, and place a fried egg over the top pancake. Not the most healthiest dish going, but the taste is unbeatable.

By and far the most odd thing I have ever had, is candied scorpion and grasshopper on a stick in Singapore many years ago. Never eaten a lollipop since....
