Shredded cheese crisped up in a skillet.

According to my ex, who politely asked me to stop doing that, it makes the entire house smell like particularly foul body odor.

    Sometimes I put a tiny bit of mustard on an Oreo to have a sweet and tangy snack.

    My partner thinks it’s disgusting and my biggest red flag: I make peanut butter sandwiches on white bread and dip them in ranch dressing 😩 the reason I do this is because of growing up a millennial in NKY where a weekly lunch option was a bowl of chili, served with a peanut butter sandwich, and carrot sticks w a side of ranch….I hate raw carrots, always have lmao but I love all the other items….one day I was staring at the sad unused ranch and thinking as I was already keen to dipping the PB sandwich in the chili, that maybe it would be as good as the PB in chili so I tried it and I’ve just done it and liked a PB sandwich dipped in ranch ever since 😓 my partner has even tried it for me and hated it 🤷🏼‍♀️ at least they loved me enough to try it 🥹

    Bean dip on pizza. It sounds super weird, and it is, but it's also delicious 🤤

    This sounds like the bean base for a taco pizza. Not sure how wide spread it is, but where i am from in the Midwest it is pretty popular. Pizza Hut has a Taco Bean and a Taco Beef Pizza. Add cheddar cheese, pop it in the oven, after it's done baking, add lettuce, more cheddar cheese, tomatoes, chushed up Doritos, and some sour cream. So good.

    My favourite pizza topping is pepperoni and flaked tuna, the good stuff too so it's meaty oily tuna.

    Love it but so many people think I'm odd for it. The meaty flavours compliment each other!!!

    A more general answer: Meals without meat.

    For some reason this really confuses people, and often makes them concerned or upset.

    My friend recommended eating kiwis with the skin on. It takes a second to get used to the fuzzy skin, but they are SOOOO much easier to eat! Plus you get some extra fiber ;)

    Raw garlic, just once in a while, as a little treat. Sometimes I’ll mash it up in some bread but most often… plain, raw garlic.

    I have also not met a single thing I won’t try to pickle at least once, and for some reason people around me think that it is Terrifying hahaha. Personally, I find pickling to be a fantastic way to rescue produce that’s otherwise about to go off. Instead of making food waste, I’m making delicious snacks and toppings. Pickle everything!

    Brewed tea leaves, think they're the best part. There's a good number that are terrible (the cheap CTC blacks especially) but think most green teas and floral oolongs are great.

    Weird to brew a cup of tea and then eat the leaves but there's also some legit recipes with tea leaves. Burmese tea leaf salad and longjing shrimp are two. There's also matcha.

    I eat prunes daily. some people think it's a laxative for old people. sure, there's fiber in them and fiber helps you stay regular but just the same as eating most fruit. prunes are just dried plums and they're delicious

    Lobsters and crabs are essentially overgrown bugs that live in water. At one point they were only fed to prisoners.

    During a time where I would eat really utilitarian for lunch, this meal was my daily go to:

    -half a can of skipjack tuna

    -some amount of chopped cabbage

    -steamer bag carrots and peas

    -rice seasoning from the local Asian market (I don't know which one it's just labelled "rice seasoning")

    -hot sauce

    I try to not eat like a serial killer anymore

    I love eating a raw potato like an apple, for whatever reason. Any time I'm cooking a dish with potatoes, I'll wash and peel one for me to eat. My boyfriend looked like I had grown a third arm the first time he saw me do it.

    It's the perfect mix of crunchy and juicy, but not sweet.

    Raw potatoes are like semi toxic. Do you not get any GI upset from doing that?

    No, never. AFAIK they aren't toxic, just that the starch is poorly digested. Either way, I've never gotten sick from it, so 🤷

    It's odd because I have had digestive issues off and on through the years, but the potatoes have never precipitated it. (It's mostly anything spicy, which sucks as I love spicy food-- it's a price I pay willingly sometimes)
