I don't think I've made a post on here about food, so here goes! πŸ˜ƒ

I'll go first...I just love eating uncooked pasta. It has such a satisfying crunch and the tomato pasta and wholewheat pasta are my faves! This has been a habit that I've had ever since I've had teeth and people are always surprised that I haven't damaged my teeth doing this. I enjoy pasta cooked too!

Soylent original.

it's so plain. I love it. I could switch to it almost entirely. I could get fat on it.

Bacon and cream cheese sandwich on white bread.

It's the second greatest sandwich ever.

There was some news story i saw a long time ago where a crazy christian married couple were still virgins and the guy said every time he gets hot and bothered he just bites into a raw potato. Then shows him doing it. I laughed my ass off

I have 2.

Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches. Best served on the lowest tier white bread you can find.

The second is onion rings and maple syrup. I wish someone would do maple battered onion rings because those would definitely be delicious.

I like drinking diet tonic water straight. As far as I know, it's not generally-consumed as a drink, just used as a mixer. More sour than most sodas.

I don't know if it's super weird, but I don't believe that it's the primary intent for the thing.

White cheddar macaroni and steamed green peas mixed together, particularly with fish sticks

Not incredibly weird but mist people are surprised when I eat multiple breakfast cereals together, like a salad, rather than just one. I like Wheatabix with shredded wheats, raisin wheats and fruit and fibre often. I do usually have it with almond milk though, rather than plain, so not too weird.

I haven't had this since I was a kid, but I used to take two pieces of toast, put Nutella on one slice, and margarine and Vegemite on the other… and then sandwich them together and chow down. Sweet and savory and umami all at the same time. Don't know if I would do that these days, though.

Shrimp heads and and fish heads, but only non-Asian people think it's weird (I'm not Asian myself--I just eat a lot of Asian foods).

[–] Steamymoomilk@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Peanut butter and hot dogs

I eat chicken wings with the bones. The whole thing. And I love picking at the meat that is on the bone!

Give me a pork chop, T-bone steak, chicken thigh and I’ll gnaw at that bone like I’m a fully grown dog. Granted I don’t do it in public, but I feel like leaving meat in the bone is a waste and it’s sometimes tastier!

Apple pieces with three to four tabasco drops on each of them.

God I'm addicted to this.

Lasagnchiladas.

Layer of lasagna, layer of enchilada, keep stacking until baking dish is full.

It's a bit more work since you're making two whole dishes but it's the one thing that such from Epic Mealtime inspired experiments.

I love natto. Which isn't that weird IMO, but people sure seem to think it is.

Even when I lived in Japan for a little bit, people there would be like "a GAIJIN that likes NATTO!?" Sure, it's stinky, but yum.

Pretty much everything. My partner thinks it's weird that I like to eat...

Pepperocinis, Baby corn, Pickled ginger, Any kind of olives (green, black, kalmata, oil-cured...), Cheese hotdogs, Hot sauce on soup, Hearts of Palm, Cincinnati-style chili,

I guess the curse of my German/Swedish heritage is, if you soak anything in brine and vinegar long enough, I'll probably eat it.

Anchovies on pizza, I wouldn't say that I love it but sometimes I get strong cravings for that salty little fish on my pizza.

probably heart for me these days.

it's my favorite cut of meat, and everybody agrees if I cook it for them, but until they try it I always get weird. looks or blank stares and confused questions.
