I have a strange taste in food. My latest thing is walnut bread. It shouldn't work, but it does...

What's your favourite strangest combination?
 
No STRANGE FOOD, I am a chef! Shrimp, plump, butterflies, a saute of onion, red and green pepper, onion and garlic, tarragon, a fambee' of pernods, de glaze white wine, 2 minutes or less on one side, 2 mins or less the other. . . a flaming candle for left over juice :D NO BuRGERS!:D

Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches.

I think that must be a regional thing--I grew up eating them. But my folks were from Nebraska and I came up in Texas, and everybody around me thought this was weird.

Sweet or dill? (I prefer sweet, myself).

Now the rice and barbecue sauce is a bit, um, unusual. Reminds me of a Thanksgiving lunch we had at my workplace. The boss ladled a generous helping of what he thought was gravy onto his mashed potatoes and it turned out to be brown mustard Oops!

Dill.
 
Why do strange when good is fabulous.

Lunch today - across the road.

Table nibbles of marinated octopus, black olives and presunto (Portuguese proscuttio)
Broa - corn bread
Bacalhao (salt cod) baked small potatoes, lots of garlic and olive oil
Half a bottle of red
Expresso coffee

I dawdled reading C.P. Snow's - The Search that Ogg kindly supplied for me during the Yorkshire visit and thought fondly of you J-L.
 
I eat ketchup on grilled cheese sandwiches and people say this is just nauseating, but it's good. Also, cottage cheese as a dip for potato chips. Don't knock it till you try it.

What's strange about walnut bread? :confused:

Some people have raised eyebrows when I told them about my vanilla/ginger/tomato steak sauce. But only until they tasted it.
 
Kraft Macaroni & Cheese with a can of Nalley's Chilli with onion mixed in. Pure single livin' food.
 
melted american cheese on chocolate chip cookies.
i know.. but what can ya do

i lurve lurve lurve escargot!
 
Black pepper with butter and sugar in oatmeal isn't bad.

Peanut butter on a bacon, lettice, tomato sandwich is very good too.

You can make a very tasty sandwich using toast, canned anchovies, cream cheese and tomatoes.

There's an Indian snack (India Indian) called "hot mix" that's fried rice-noodles, beans and stuff, all seasoned with hot red pepper. It's just perfect with milk.

One of the secrets to making a good pot of chili is adding some unsweetened chocolate. Kind of like a Mexican mole sauce.

Up in Michigan they sell big jars of pickled baloney, but it's awful. Tastes like it sounds. I understand that in Kentucky they also make barbecued baloney.

I saw deep-fried pickles somewhere too.

Weirdest thing I've seen was this guy who used to put coffee grounds on his cornflakes to get his caffeine in the morning.

Raw egg on hot rice (the heat cooks it a bit), but compared to the rest of you...it's just so vanilla.

We eat 'em down here, doc. Breaded and fried, like everything in the south. If it doesn't move they will bread it.

It sounds Persian! It's the classic accompaniment to chelo kabab, and it needs to have ground somaq sprinkled on top of it.
 
White sugar and dripping on white bread.

Disastrous for the diabetes and not as good as it was when I was 7 years old but still wonderful.

Exactly, avacado stuffed crab, or escargot is not more than $1.50 cdn, Hurumf where is the yahoo spit :D
 
Tortillas in place of bread. All of my sandwiches are really more burritos, only with deli meat, cheese, mustard, and mayo.

Damn, that sounds good. Unfortunately, I have no meat or cheese in the house. Just the ever present tortillas.
 
This thread is making me hungry. At 2 in the morning. :rolleyes:
