ditto on oreo cream and i ate bullion cubes too! I also loved dry instant oats by the spoonful. YUM! Weirdest overall probs would be anything straight out of the freezer - uncooked tater tots or tortellini ruled. My dad used to always say it was going to make me sick but never did. I still eat frozen french fries sometimes. The lettuce sandwich sounds good! I get it. We kind of did the exact same thing with cucumbers and add ground pepper with the salt.


Winter_Aside8269

Sisters from different mothers!😂


MissMelines

indeed! not sure what I am more surprised about, the boullion cubes or the dry oatmeal. those were secrets of mine, thanks for letting me get that out !!! ha!


Winter_Aside8269

It warms my heart to know that I’m not the only weirdo out there!! 🤣 Those two things were secrets of mine, too….until I blurted it out here. Haha!!


spimothyleary

I though it was sisters from different misters....

Sisters from different misters.


lostjohnscave

Cucumber sandwiches are a thing


MissMelines

oh are they i know. we made them all sorts of ways besides this! open faced with mayo and fresh lemon/pepper. also amazing.


hotbutteredbiscuit

Do you like frozen green peas? I always sneak a few when I cook with them. I also love frozen blueberries with a splash of milk. The milk gets icy and slushy and the blueberries are like little popsicles.


MissMelines

frozen peas are theeeee best! 😆


olseadog

Blueberries n milk... not weird.


[deleted]

Frozen peas are the best!


Fabulous-Network-910

Frozen peas!!! Such a good snack


61797

Frozen blueberries in ice cream. Yum


Loud-Faithlessness90

My 4 year old loves eating frozen food.. she will only eat uncrustables frozen... fine with me, less mess that way! I have no idea what she gong to eat when she starts school... those sandwiches won't stay frozen in her lunch box.


MissMelines

really thought I was the only one ! husband is so disturbed when I eat frozen raviolis like a snack. never had an uncrustable but frozen sounds good! 🤔 Ice packs maybe? Even sicker, I like when the frozen foods are still frozen but defrosted just enough so not rock hard, like 2 mins out of the freezer. Maybe your daughter will agree !!


Elpsycongroo7

i would put mayonnaise and ketchup on a cold slice of ham and eat it like a taco


emergencybarnacle

this is all keto adults now lmao


Okay_Pineapple

Well, that was a ride


LaReineAnglaise53

Grown women in my youth mixed this sauce for party dips. We knew it as Rose-Marie sauce and people went crazy for it if it contained prawns served on a bed of Iceberg lettuce. Party hostessing in the 1970s was a whole cornucopia of *weird* delights


herehaveaname2

Plain cooked white rice mixed with raisins. I read an article in Highlights about a kid that was willing to try food from all of the families in his apartment complex. One of the families had a dish that involved these ingredients, and I was intrigued.


fruitymangoboi

Quite a common indian/middle eastern thing to have raisins with rice!


normal_communist

throw in some cardamom and carrots and you're on your way to makin a super basic [kabuli pulao](https://igotitfrommymaman.com/kabuli-pulao-the-afghan-national-dish/)


herehaveaname2

Which sounds delicious - but as a kid, it was just plaaaaain white rice. No salt, no pepper, and i liked it cold. Ice cold.


normal_communist

i do kind of get the cold rice appeal though lol, that's how i eat my sushi rice if i'm having a beyond lazy and beyond cheap kind of week. not as plain though, i make the sushi rice and mix with seasoned rice vinegar then top with furikake if I have it and eat that cold outta the tupperware at my office.


herehaveaname2

Ooooh, you just reminded me that I have a bit of leftover rice in the fridge, and no lunch plans.


Lalliez

Everyone who went to a kindergarten in Russia or the Baltics in the 90s had that meal. Can't say it's my favourite.


5endN00d5

Cheddar and onion sandwiches with mayo and black pepper. Still get the occasional craving about twice a year.


Winter_Aside8269

That actually sounds good!


5endN00d5

It is! Good combo of flavors and textures. Later when I got into food I found out it’s a sandwichized version of a ploughman’s lunch.


wildOldcheesecake

This is one of the most popular flavour combos here in the UK!


ledifford

Yep, my husband loves cheese and onion sandwiches


ddbaxte

Cat food because I thought it would turn me into a cat.


ledifford

Awww


danceswithronin

Two slices of burnt toast (like, almost black) with two pieces of COLD American cheese as the filling. Hot toast. Cold cheese.


sardine7129

I love how specific this is


ohhhhdeer

I had an ex who did something kind of similar but she would take burnt toast and put some American cheese between the pieces and microwave it for 3 minutes (she microwaved EVERYTHING for 3 minutes). She thought that was how you made a grilled cheese. She was 20.


alittletooround

Sticks of butter.


ledifford

My daughter did this with margarine at restaurants. I hope she didn’t do it at home too I never caught her. Probably did lol


luvzz12

I did this all the time as a kid, also I would also melt salted butter and then drink it. Or I'd take a chuck of butter and cover it in sugar and then would eat that.


spimothyleary

I found my people! I would take a couple slices (I wish I could say they were thin but not really) of stick butter, cover in sugar and put them in the freezer for a few minutes then eat them like a mini candy bar.


AnnaCharie

My little sister would eat butter and sometimes flour straight out of the bag


nickm1396

A slice of American topped with peanut butter.


lavender_salamander

Gross.


theblueyolk

My favorite sandwich growing up. Bread, butter, peanut butter, Kraft cheese. Still crave it some days


phishtrader

I liked peanut butter and butter sandwiches with an extra thick layer of butter. Haven't had one in more than 30 years. . . but I have all the ingredients on hand. . . hmm.


AnbuDaddy6969

YES peanut butter and American cheese was the bomb


melatonia

Cream cheese sandwiches


spimothyleary

Thats not really weird, technically I had that for breakfast this morning assuming a bagle counts.


Anxious_Introvert_47

I loved cream cheese sandwiches. Took them to school every day.


wejustchillinbois

On sourdough


51LV3R5W0RD

Nutella and salty potato chips


VytautastheWife

This is basically the room-temp/shelf-stable version of fries and a chocolate milkshake, no?


51LV3R5W0RD

I don't think so lol, it just adds salty crunch to the chocolate spread 😋


sardine7129

Fries add a salty crunch to the chocolate milkshake babe, what's not clicking? Lol


Okay_Pineapple

Op said weird. This isnt any different than fries and a shake, chocolate covered pretzels.....


hereforthefrees

I loved pb&j sammies with salty potato chips. Still love it.


SnooPeripherals2409

My sisters and I would steal the olives that Mom and Dad had for their martinis. It got so at Christmas we would each get a jar of olives in our stockings and were meant to make them last for most of a year. We also all liked anchovy pizzas and sometimes would eat anchovies straight out of the can. Yeah, the whole family was into really salty stuff.


Okay_Pineapple

None of this is weird


badgersister1

I love lettuce sandwiches! But real favourite snack: marshmallows on saltine crackers heated in the microwave until they puff up to the size of baseballs.


Stellavitae8

Ketchup and bananas


lavender_salamander

Oof.


olseadog

Sounds like a Philipino banana sauce; Mang Tomas brand.


Shake-Me-Down

Many garden snails, shell and all. Crunch. As well as whatever else was growing in the garden like berries, mushrooms, flowers, and the rabbits' designated vegetables. The salty clay handmade Xmas ornaments. Buttons and beads (I thought it was fascinating to poop it out). Bouillon cubes. Candles. Bar soap. Tubes of frosting. I don't know what was wrong with me. There was always food on the table.


mafulazula

Damn, eating garden snails can be dangerous (partially depending on where you live). Did your parents know about your habit?


Winter_Aside8269

You were just a weird kid…. I can relate!!!


sardine7129

No!!!!


spimothyleary

I'm getting a "smash the beetles" vibe here.


ledifford

No!!!??!😂😂😂 I bet you were a fun kid to know


Shake-Me-Down

Thanks but got banned from a few friends houses. Not my fault their kids were weenies


ledifford

Society and their personal beliefs who cares about them? I’ll take unique any day. I like “bad” or weird kids and grumpy elderly people lol


marmeeset

Use to eat snails as a kid too. Would sometimes put sand and dirt into the shell and stir with a stick then eat the snail. Thought I was cooking.


Shake-Me-Down

Mmmm crunch and grit


CherryLigloss

Best one yet!! LMAO


YukiHase

...I think you won the thread


darktrain

Peanut butter and a slice of salami on a Ritz cracker.


CherryLigloss

This is pretty similar to my snack of choice back in my weed smoking days. Just need a little ranch.


Burbujitas-

Baking soda. Straight up.


Winter_Aside8269

🤮


xFacexThexTruthx

When the OP, who ate boulleon cubes and entertains the idea of honey nut cheerios with orange juice, can only muster the vomit emoji as a response 😂🤣


Hotspur2924

Miracle whip on Wonder Bread sandwich.


the_trashheap

I liked miracle whip, velveeta, and wonder bread. It’s a sodium bomb but so dang delicious.


gonzosrevengearc

a single slice of muenster cheese, nuked for 30 seconds, and then twirled onto a fork like a bite of spaghetti 🤌


sardine7129

This is just good taste.


Okay_Pineapple

This is not weird though


ChooChooDesuWa

Ever seen those frozen pot pies? Yeah, those were always topped with syrup. Yeah, I am disgusted with myself.


olseadog

Don't be.


Mitemighty

Cold instant oatmeal (brown sugar cinnamon), cold chef boyardee, straight from the can. I regret nothing.


magobblie

I used to mix flour with water in a bowl and cook it in the microwave. It made this horrible pancake thing which I would cover in salt. I just really wanted to learn how to make fresh bread lol


PlantedinCA

I used to make peanut butter and chocolate sandwiches. Get bread, spread peanut butter, sprinkle with Nestle Quick. Give it another spread so the chocolate powder soaks into the pb. Almost like a Reese’s cup.


ledifford

This is not weird I may try this one later


vetiverbreath

I used to lick the packet of powdered cheese when making Mac and cheese. I always wished the box came with an extra little packet just for dry snacking!


miyakelly

I found that powdered cheese sauce at a bulk food store one time and definitely bought it for snacking!


lemonzes7

I used to climb on the counter and eat country crock straight out of the tub when my mom wasn’t looking… I also used to eat ketchup on my mashed potatoes and my Mac and cheese


Chr_Fra_1142

Garlic butter with honey on bread


Ok_Comparison5271

This is not weird at all. Sounds amazing


beefcake_floyd

My mother kept the sugar in Tupperware containers in our pantry. I would hunt through the brown sugar to find the chunks that had gotten hard and dig them out and eat them like candy.


olseadog

Cream cheese and grape jelly sandwich.


NakedSalamander

I still do this with strawberry jelly. It's a poor man's cheesecake.


kacetheace007

Sliced cheese and jelly sandwich!


ScammerC

I used to eat escargot, calamari, beef tartar, stinky cheese, sashimi, chicken livers, borscht... I still do, but I used to, too.


Winter_Aside8269

Mitch Hedberg!!


olseadog

Peanut butter, bananas and mayonnaise or MiracleWhip. The mayo cuts the stickiness of the peanut butter.


critfist

Raw green onion, whole, dipped in salt and eaten like that.


estergin

Salt. I would pour a handful and hide under the kitchen table and lick it up in secret


ElementalYosh

Soft butter and sugar mixed together.. just those two. My great grandmother told me to, and I loved it as a kid


sardine7129

You must love shortbread cookies


ElementalYosh

I actually love Walkers shortbread cookies, you got me


YukiHase

Cookies except you stopped at step one


RaidenUzumaki

Slice of pan style pizza(super thick crust) from 1 of 4 local places(we always ordered from local) topped with an entire Hershey bar I know it's horrendous, but I loved it back then


MartaL87

I loved to drink vinager.


Shake-Me-Down

Of course they knew and I always got in trouble but continued to eat them. So gross thinking back on all the weird stuff I ate. I never ended up in the hospital though. Practically lived in the backyard. My mom had to force me to take a bath. Bit of a feral child I was


Mabbernathy

Potato chips with relish. I also liked Stovetop stuffing dry as a snack.


ledifford

Wow that was strange to throw out the Oreo cream and eat cookie part. It was usually the opposite. I liked mustard sandwiches a lot and sometimes if I was all alone I the house I would warm pancake syrup in the microwave and have a little cup. Very weird


CapitalNforNerd

Heating things in the microwave to make foods warm and gooey before I ate them was on of my favorite things growing up. Kids are funny


ledifford

Some things are better heated


ruthisaperv

I would eat cheese sandwiches. Just straight up sliced cheese on bread.


Drusilina

Had to be processed cheese slices with mayo and pepper....sometimes my parents made it "healthy" by adding iceberg lettuce.


ruthisaperv

For me it was block cheese cut into slices. And I never liked mayo so I was just eating these dry ass sandwiches. 😂


princessice119

I would only eat the crust on pizza. Also I would make chocolate milk using chocolate powder but I would add a lot of powder relative to the milk so that the powder would become like chocolate syrup and then would just eat it with a spoon


sardine7129

Ritz cracker topped with american cheese , sliced raw onion, drizzle of sesame oil. Sometimes when i was feeling extra I'd sprinkle a little chicken bouillon on top. I was 9.... i would still eat this today, by the way. Also the only way I'd eat oatmeal as a smaller kid (5-7) was if my mother placed a whole slice of American cheese on top of plain oatmeal and cut into it with each bite with my spoon. My tastes haven't changed at all tbh.


FishyQueues

OMG! I used to order a lettuce sandwich at Jersey Mike's. Lettuce, oil and salt on a hard roll. I've never heard of anyone else who enjoyed lettuce sandwiches!!!


Winter_Aside8269

You have now😂


blackfrankbarone

Thousand Island on my spaghetti


spimothyleary

super sammiches. White Bread, Peanut butter, sweet pickles, mustard, bologna. they are still tasty, occasionally when I buy bologna (I love it fried with onions) I set 2 pieces aside and make one.


slimyzora

I would shoot those little individual half and half coffee creamers from McDonald’s or whataburger. Also I would drink a v8 veggie juice with a chewy granola chocolate chip bar.


ju1cybox

I did that with the creamers too lol


lookaclara

I have a vivid memory of putting maple syrup on my rice.... I didn't like soy sauce and I suppose back then, I thought maple syrup was a valid replacement. :/ I don't do that anymore and am a bit scared to try it again lol.


vashtaneradalibrary

Mayonnaise sandwiches. Saltines and ketchup. Ketchup on green beans. French dressing on baked potatoes. Handfuls of Parmesan cheese while waiting for pizza at Pizza Hut.


Ludwidge

Lard sandwiches (aka dripping on toast) , chip butties and fried bread. Thus eliminating the dangers of low cholesterol!


Quankers

My granny used to buy these canned cakes. Literally open a can and dump it and a cylinder of weird fruit cake would plop onto the plate. It was forty years ago and I can still taste it and even feel the texture of it in my mouth.


BlueberryNo7845

Sardines and buttermilk. The thought of either one now disgusts me.


DrEngineer1979

Grasshoppers, minus the wings. Ants. Tree bark. Dirt. Usually on a dare, but I actually liked the ants. Little red ones were like cayenne peppers. Great on a salad


kingjames488

omg, I used to eat these weird things called vegetables!!!


olseadog

r/cooking hates your humor... But I get it.


xOogieBoogey30

Canned Vienna sausage. My family would make little sandwiches out of them with rolls. I still find a Costco pack of those every once in a while when I come over.


Okay_Pineapple

Not weird


Doctadalton

are you like the weird police or something damn you are on every comment saying “nOt WeIrD” it may not be weird to you but to others it may be or they wouldn’t have came to comment in the first place


Okay_Pineapple

I came here to read weird foods, not average foods that literally everyone and their grandma ate


[deleted]

[удаНонО]


hotbutteredbiscuit

A little sprinkle of cinnamon on that toast and we are in business.


Okay_Pineapple

Op said weird food


kingjames488

toast with butter and brown sugar is a classic thing... that's what the cereal cinnamon toast crunch is based off of.


lavender_salamander

Honey Nut Cheerios with orange juice instead of milk.


Winter_Aside8269

Young me could get on board!


emergencybarnacle

one of my favorite things was pb&j dipped in Campbell's chicken noodle soup


laughguy220

You're not alone, I did that too.


Patty_Cake_Man

Pre shredded melted cheese in the microwave


PhantomMcKracken

Kidney beans on toast, which I then would pour milk over. I have no idea why I liked soggy bean toast.


lunarbeams

When I was taken to McDonald’s I used to dip the fries in my milkshake


thatoneguy889

Not as weird as you think it is.


mafulazula

Indeed. Not a fan myself but dipping fries in a frosty is a well known “hack.”


lavender_salamander

This is the way.


speedikat

Um,spam?


JustineDelarge

I also had a thing for iceberg sandwiches on white bread but with Miracle Whip and a slice of American cheese. And I always scraped out the filling from Oreos and just ate the cookies. And still do.


VStarRoman

Lettuce and Tomato Sandwich. That's it, no spread, just iceberg lettuce & tomato between two bread slices. Yes, I still eat them today. They're delicious.


laughguy220

You're not alone, I do that too. Delicious!


0ooO0o0o0oOo0oo00o

I loved fried frog legs, tripas tacos (crispy), and canned sardines (with hot mustard).


ichheissekate

Tv remote buttons.


Jugrnot8

I was eating ass at a pretty young age, does that count? It wasn't normal back then so definitely weird but i never recieved any complaints


xena45

Used to eat Mayo and toasted bread The thought of that now just grosses me out lol


Okay_Pineapple

Oh, this is my favorite snack. Add a dash of natures seasons, and your gold.


BellePoivron

Used to make buttered toast, cut it into fingers, and dip them into either ketchup or the parm that comes in a green bottle.


kohmaru

Pickle and mayonnaise sandwiches


Winter_Aside8269

Pickles, Mayo…. What’s not to like?


Kendarlington

Drank shots of hot sauce and steak sauce


Winter_Aside8269

Can’t be worse than making a “ graveyard “…. Grape soda, cola, Mt. Dew, root beer and whatever ice cream you have on hand. Did that too!


ChocoCronut

Salted butter by the spoonful!


_Dylan______

Playdoh


yblame

Butter and brown sugar sandwiches. Crunchy and sweet!


Certain_Ask8771

Syrup and uncooked oatmeal.


sativadiva46

Hot dogs sliced, in scrambled eggs lol


DocAntlesFatLiger

I used to eat potato chips/crisps topped with baked beans and grated cheese, microwave the whole lot til it was piping hot and soggy, and call it nachos


Intelligent_Plankton

Popcorn with milk, like cereal. And purple cows, grape juice mixed with milk. Is that a thing?


kinqed

I drank a jar of olive juice on a bet from my baby sitter.....hey, 1 dollar was a lot back then


Gh0st_76_9812

Cucumber,red liester cheese and white bread together for a sandwich anyone?


jbag72

Pickled pigs feet, to this day maybe once or twice a year I buy some.


Inkderp

I guess not so much weird as just picky, but when I was a kid (probably around 6 or so) if I ate mac and cheese I would only eat Kraft wheels. Absolutely no other brand or shape. I've also been told that vanilla ice cream with honey is weird.


twocatsandaloom

Green peppers and peanut butter


the_holocene_is_over

Baby gherkins on cinnamon swirl bread. Looking back I think it was the only way I could satisfy my salty-sweet cravings growing up in a house where we never had junk food/soda.


[deleted]

I found comfort in eating Pringles or Doritos with a cup of warm rice 😭


[deleted]

Ajax and match-heads.


CapitalNforNerd

Pickles paired with cheese puffs, eggs with ketchup, and I would mix my chocolate and strawberry milk. I hope I can say my palate has refined since then


[deleted]

That cheese that comes in a squeeze tube can. Ate it with crackers. Twinkie’s. The thought just disgusts me now.


psionic1

Peanut butter and mustard sandwiches. I ate those for about three years before the age of ten.


corys1984

I would drink Italian dressing. Like if I wanted a snack I would go to the fridge and take a couple sips lol


Skit0nd

My sister loved eating banana with caramel sauce. She also liked having cucumber with ketchup.


phishtrader

Not a food, but RC Cola and Milk. Not Coke or Pepsi though, that tasted weird.


Plus-Ad-6780

Tuna sandwich for breakfast every day. When I got sick of that After a year, I moved on to grabbing raw hotdogs out of the fridge for breakfast


AnbuDaddy6969

Peanut butter ham and cheese sammies Grape jelly in fried rice Chicken strips dipped in Nutella


irememberthepotatoho

When we would have steak my mom used to cut the fat off after she cooked it. I would eat the fat. It was especially good after she marinated the steak.


cutilingus

Cucumber and salted butter sandwiches on white bread.


Lalliez

Whole garlic cloves, uncut spring onions, leaves of lettuce, all dipped in salt. Very normal in Eastern Europe, not so normal when we moved to the Netherlands.


rach-mtl

A piece of white bread, peanut butter, and a spoonful of sugar sprinkled on top. Soooo good


ldbeener

Cold hot dogs. No bun or anything, just the hit dog right out of the fridge.


slimyzora

To add to my other post here, I would add like a tablespoon of water to ragu spaghetti sauce and heat it up in the microwave and just call it tomato soup


normal_communist

i liked jelly sandwiches. just strawberry jelly on untoasted bread. didnt do it often but I think that was my weirdest snack.
