I'll start: pesto as a bagel topping.

I will not-unhappily reheat and eat unrefrigerated two-day-old pizza. But I have the world's lowest standards for food.

@[email protected] what kind of bagels are we talking here? Pesto on a toasted everything sounds amazing.

We make chips out of Plantago major with a little oil, salt, garlic, and pepper. I once got a stern talking to about eating the fruit from a 'Kousa' dogwood from the owner of the landscaping company I was working for. In my defense, they were shared with the owner of the tree, who had never sprayed any -cides there.

I mix Coke and Orange Juice to wake up in the morning sometimes. My wife that dips steak in ranch dressing and friend that eats peanut butter and ham sandwiches hate it.

I once watched a friend mix soda and milk together and then drink the entire thing like nothing was wrong. I was horrified.

A dash of yogurt in instant noodles (specifically Indomie). Also, pesto on bagel is indeed reaaaally good. Especially if you add cream cheese, a fried egg, some spinach and make a kind of sandwich out if it.

Creamy polenta with head cheese. Yes, the head cheese melts. And yes, it's delicious.

I like pineapple on pizza, but I think there's only one specific sort of pizza where it's actually good. You need a good barbeque sauce base, jalapenos, and some sort of meat (I prefer chicken and bacon). The usual ham, pineapple and tomato sauce version can get in the sea.

fish heads... they're just so much cheaper than the rest of the fish and delicious in the air fryer. also i'll eat the tails on shrimp.

microwaved cookies (they're better warm)

Greek yogurt and natural peanut for breakfast. Not really that odd in my opinion but the face of the people I tell that too say otherwise.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, I've blended peanut butter and plain Greek yogurt in a blender and it almost tastes like peanut butter ice cream

Tahini as butter on a sandwich. It's delicious and goes with almost any sweet condiment!

Type of sushi called Uni (sea urchin)... more specific, it's gonads, although most people don't even know that piece of info. They just don't like the color, texture or taste.

To me it's more like a creamy raw oyster without the worry of biting a piece of shell.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I love the flavor of uni, but I cannot get over the texture.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oh man, I used to love eating uni...many years ago when I lived in the Seattle area. Now I'm in the midwest where "sushi" means "suspect-looking tuna rolls at the supermarket" and I'm vegan to boot. No more sea urchin gonads for me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

That reminds me, one of my favorite sushi rolls to make is cucumber and sauerkraut. My wife thought it was really strange when she saw me making them, I don't know why since other pickled veggies are common in vegetable rolls, but when I finally convinced her to try one she really liked it as well.

Shrimp tails, especially on fried shrimp; the crunchy texture is great. Not strange but something that I usually get looks or comments about.

I've gotten my family used to it enough that they will give me the leftover tails from their plates at a restaurant.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I’m with you! Always got strange looks from friends but I’m like “Hey, more protein!”

Banana sandwiches. Banana, mayo, white bread. It's a Southern thing, and it's always Duke's mayo.

Tomato sandwiches. Really good tomatoes, mayo, white bread, salt. Also Southern, also Duke's.

I don't drink a lot of milk, but when I have a glass, I like a couple cubes of ice in it. Milk tastes sweeter to me as it warms up, and I don't like that, so the ice delays it.

My mom likes canned pineapple rings with mayo.

Rice porridge with milk instead of water. It’s a thing where my parents are from but I’ve never heard of anyone else having it before. It goes great with nuts. I prefer bbq flavoured peanuts, but anything sweet and salty will work.
