Irish - same here lol (I get the strangest looks when ordering BLT's :) ) I don't even let him dip in mayo in the same room as me he has to take it elsewhere

I think i would be lost without mayo or ground black pepper in my cupboard :)

I like snails in garlic tho"

legend 04-25-2002 12:30 PM

i'm with everyone on the mayo thing, yuck! and i gotta agree with OF on the cereal thing, i have my cornflakes at nearly any time of the day

but my weird combo i guess is icecream, cornflakes and chocolate sauce...cocoa pops and powdered milk...golden syrup and whipped cream sandwhich...

icecreamthighs 04-25-2002 12:35 PM

did anyone say icecream?

how about icecream, legend and my thighs? ;)

legend 04-25-2002 12:38 PM

ict - that wouldn't be weird, that would be heaven ;) i wonder if that heaven comes on a stick :D

Lilith 04-25-2002 12:47 PM

Well, being both a Canadian and an anthropologist, I guess it's fair to say that I've eaten my share of weird stuff...

To start, there's poutine --- french fries, cheese curds, and gravy. It's a French Canadian specialty designed purposefully to clog any artery in sight, and oooh so yummy.

Then... let's see...

*Caribou (realy lovely rich, dark meat)
*Muktuk (blubber --- not a favourite of mine, despite the fact that poutine has to be at least as high in fat :D)
*Pemmican (berries, fat, and meat ground into a pulp and dried out, as a traditional native travel food)
*Paganens (an Algonquin wild hazelnut soup)
*Acorn bread (ground acorns can be used as a kind of flour substitute)
*Bannock of many varieties (bannock is just a basic quickbread kind of like tea biscuits, but when you use ground sunflower seeds instead of flour or fill it with fresh blueberries you've just picked, it's quite special)
*Fiddleheads (a certain kind of fern, just as it's newly sprouting, has beautiful curls that resemble the scrollwork on a violin, and when just lightly steamed with butter, they're sooooo yummy)
*Grasshoppers both roasted and fried (let me tell you once and for all that they do not taste like chicken, though they're pretty good once you get used to the idea)

And perhaps weirdest of all, there's that peculiar British specialty, the battered deep-fried Mars bar on a stick. Quite tasty, actually, but I worry about the mental health of whoever thought that one up! Can't you just see it? 'Hmm, if I stuff a stick into my chocolate bar, and roll it around in the batter I'm frying my fish in, then I can deep-fry my dessert too, 'cause that'll be good for me!' :p ROTFLMAO!! :D

--- sweetstuff

p.s. According to my grandmother, my father used to eat peanut butter and liverwurst sandwiches --- what a combination!! :p

Right on Lilith! Always wondered if I was the only one who liked Phish food and all the chocolate fishies!

And who can forget poutine, especially after a cold day on the slopes, absolutely great stuff!!

I love all kinds of sashimi myself....... except sea urchin

Jizzlobber-- I have to agree with you Guiness is the one beer that i LOVE. I can drink a ton of that stuff.. Ever done a irish car bomb ??

Grumble dear-- ROFL i know for sure because Aunt Flo paid her visit this weekend :D:D:D:D

I came up with some more. Cottage cheese with salt and pepper or cottage cheese with pineapple... Mushrooms any way i can eat them but my all time fave is, Fried mushrooms in soy sauce, and red wine vineger with mozzerella cheese, let the cheese melt and its the BEST!!

I'd like to dine with Sarriah this weekend... I've tried the cottage cheese w/pineapple myself, only prob I have with it is the acid in the pineapple seems to put an extra...curdle to the c.c.

I ordered a "BLT" at DeAngelos(sp?) once and my waiter asked me if I wanted lettuce&tomatoe;on it.I replied that I didn't order a
"B";did I?That question must be so automatic;that they don't even think before they ask. Irish

Neige 04-26-2002 03:00 PM

Oh, how I love poutine!!!!! I have one almost every day for lunch... the local tavern makes the best!!!

And now, for the grosser stuff: RAPÛRE!!!!!! English-speaking people call it rappie pie (around here anyway). This is two layers grated potatoes with a layer of meat (usually chicken or clams or beef, although some people make it with corned beef or moose or deer or rabbit) in between. The whole thing is put to cook in the oven for about 3 or 4 hours, and it crusts over and it basically looks like a grayish brown mush and it's just the most delicious thing in the world!!!!!!! It just looks really disgusting... It's traditionnally an Acadian meal, so it might be popular in Louisiana too...

i love black pudding also known as blood pudding

Ophelia 04-26-2002 03:40 PM

I love dill pickle and peanut butter sandwiches!

Sharni - vegemite is wretched!! ICK! It is definitely an acquired taste...that I never acquired!

I think the weirdest thing I ever SAW anyone eat was a "bubble and squeak" at a roadhouse! Very bizzare. Ok, maybe the toasted spaghetti sandwich too! (those zany aussies!)
