My favorite breakfast is:
A burnt onion bagel with cream cheese, peanut butter and sliced leftover dinner meat on it with pickled onions. I grew up eating it as a kid a lot, and I love it still. My ex used to gross out and became unable to eat breakfast because of it. [8|]

I love cold cereal w/M&M's mixed in. Not the peanut one, the plain ones. This mixture worked best w/Corn flakes. Any cereal w/fruit/nuts will take away from the M&M's *nods*.

The M&M's created a "flavored" milk...chocolate/or strawberry. VERRRRRRY tasty! Mmmmmm, I think I'll stop by the store on the way home. I'm LONG overdue for this tasty treat!

Does ketchup poured on corned beef count as being strange?



VirginPotty -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 6:56:59 AM)

Nope, not at all. I love ketchup on pretty much everything! (Tho I don't eat meat so that part IS strange) [:D]

Peanut butter on a hot dog is uber yummy!



sambamanslilgirl -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 7:10:16 AM)

when i was married to my ex (who's Mexican), i've tried strange foods from tripe to goat's eyeballs/meat and (cow or bull - who knows) brains tacos

somehow the chocolate covered bacon sounds a little better.

Mmmmm   now that sounds yummy! I love PB & mayo or PB& pickle sammies but never thought to combine the two




PB seems to go good with a lot of things.  When growing up the family was going on a picnic and my mother told my older sister to fix some sandwitches to take.  My sister asked what kind, and my mother, meaning for her to fix some peanut butter sandwitches and some tomato sandwitches simply said to fix some peanut butter and tomato sandwitches.  Turned out they were excellent and I enjoy them frequently even today.  I also enjoy having a PB sandwitch (plain) while eating a bowl of chili...makes a great combination!

i adore cheese and strawberry jam (jelly) sandwiches.... we didnt have peanut butter one day, i just got a wild hair and decided to try it..im addicted. yummy!![:)]



MusicalBoredom -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 10:45:40 AM)

I am not originally from here at all.  I dated this girl who's family had a farm in the middle of nowhere.  Every fall after cane season it was time to butcher a hog -- a boucherie they called it.  A whole group of people gather for this event and of course everyone brings tons of beer and starts drinking early.  A big fire is started and a huge kettle is placed on it. 

The actual meat of the hog can't be eaten for about a week as it's just a big pile of warm moist flesh which you could not cut if you had too.  We did have plenty to eat from it though.  Here are a few tasty items:

Cracklins: they take all of the skin and leave about an inch of fat attached to it then cut it into squares and though it in the kettle until the fat renders and they pull out the fried fat/skin and cover it with Tony's and eat it.

Turkey glace':  they take all of the joints, bones and the entire head and boil it until all they gunk floats to the top.  The gunk is mixed with turkey and spices and it forms a sort of turkey jello.

Blood boudin: the organs and spices and coagulated blood are mixed with spices and rice and stuffed in a casing.

(I need to add that I never went to another one of those.)

Where was it? It sounds like France. Or Spain.



servantheart -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 12:06:51 PM)

Milk shakes make an excellent dipping sauce, especially for french fries.  Been doing that most of my life, but the only time I don't get teased about it is when I'm pregnant.  [:D]

On my first ever visit to Warsaw in 1994 I made the mistake of buying 'pizza' from one of the red plastic kiosks near Warsaw Central station.

I paid about a dollar, which was worth it I guess for what I witnessed. First there was the familiar 'ting' of the microwave and a pair of hands appeared in the small serving hatch. In one hand a paper serviette, then a half-baked doughy pizza base onto which this person smeared cheese spread. Then I saw tongs deliver a large dollop of sauerkraut, fingers sprinkled three or four onion peelings (raw) and then the ubiquitous big red plastic bottle of ketchup and BLURRRPPP!!!! BLURRPPP!!!! everything covered with ketchup. However things changed with the arrival of Pizza Hut in 1995/1996.

Other culiniary delights included 'ozorki', basically a cow's tongue boiled, covered in gooey sauce and put on a plate. There is also 'czarnina' - duck's blood soup, 'golonki' which is ham hock boiled, sometimes complete with five o'clock shadow, and 'flaki' - minced cow's intestine.

Then there is a type of vodka known as Zubrowka (loosely bison vodka) which is vodka containing a single blade of grass from the Suwalki region of north east Poland onto which the said zubr or European bison has peed.



Leatherist -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 1:10:14 PM)

Lourreville, LA

And it is a lot like rural France.  In fact most people speak French.  There is one of the largest francophone music and culture festivals in the world here to celebrate the only part of the US where most people still speak French.  (France is sort of proud of that).  There was a huge thing in the 40s and 50s where rural kids were punished in school for speaking french because it was considered "uneducated."  That trend of course was reversed and is now a regular part of both private and public education.  Of course most of the older people used French as a way to talk to other adults without the kids understanding them.

That's the end my unofficial Cajun Country Tourism Commercial.



masterofdrkness2 -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 3:16:26 PM)

after reading a these things.. I am going to stick with the chocolate covered bacon lol... at the state fair is there anything you can not get on a stick?



IrishMist -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 3:18:01 PM)

Fried peanute butter, and banana sandwiches with honey poured over them.

Potato chips and ketsup

Fried potatoes with soy sauce

and my favorite ( I went nuts for this when I was pregnant with my daughter ) ...scallops dipped in melted peanut butter



masterofdrkness2 -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 3:35:26 PM)

It took me years but my umm use to put ketchup on everything from mac and cheese to a 7 $ pork chop  lol and I dont know if they still have it , but  they came out with this colored ketchup, the green on anything was just awful looking !



LaTigresse -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 3:46:43 PM)

If it isn't a recognisable insect or slimey I will probably try it.

I've eaten all sorts of wild game. Everything from squirrel and rabbit to bear. Snake, gator, and some sort of lizard. The big swamp rodent that the rural people in Louisiana like to catch and eat and all that sort of thing up here (possum, racoon, etc).

Seafood I am pretty much the same way. I've tried all of it that's been put in front of me. Some fabulous, some not so much so. I will never develope a fondness for raw oysters.

Farm animal parts, you name it I've tried it. Chitlins (depends on who is cooking, more importantly CLEANING them as to whether or not they are palatable ) the tripe I don't mind. Testicles are over rated, they remind me too much of a bad cross between a chicken gizzard and liver. Might have been the people cooking them also. Brains can be wonderful as can tongue and heart. Eyeballs weirded me out but I tried one. I had bull penis in soup once.....nothing to write home about. The weird parts of fowl are more work than they are worth but they taste okay....head, feet, combs, etc.

As far as fruit and veggie weirdness, I cannot think of anything that seems weird to me. Except that GAWDAWFUL durian!

But yet I adore stinky old cheeses that alot of people here in the US turn their noses up at.



MusicalBoredom -> RE: strange foods (8/28/2008 4:02:14 PM)

I'm a fan of stinky old cheese myself.  (And cali if you read this, that's seasoned by rot...the cheese of course).
