I've been known to make a salad and exclude the greens. I like the toppings and dressing without the lettuce sometimes.

I also used to HATE milk....so I'd eat fruity pebbles with orange juice in them instead of milk.

And I love green olives and the juice. And anything vinegar-ry. I loved hot pickled green beans and okra. Yum.

ETA: I also like raw potatoes with salt. I used to eat them as a kid, I had forgotten all about that!

I'm the opposite! Sometimes I'll make a salad of JUST lettuce!

I LOVE green olives also. Whenever I'm making something that uses them, I do "one for me, one for you" popping a ton of them in my mouth as I go along. LOL

I drink pickle juice with my pickles too! Only dill though, sweet pickles are naaaasty.

I also like to eat chocolate syrup by the teaspoon.... until I get impatient and just squirt it into my mouth :p

And I also eat peanut butter by itself. Or sometimes I'll just put some peanut butter in a bowl and pour chocolate syrup over it. It's like a sundae! Yummm...

It's a wonder I'm not fat.

I love gravy granules straight out of the jar, also if I am using stock cubes in anything I tend to eat some of them before they get to the pot..

I love ketchup sandwiches too.. Hmmm, bread just warm enough so all the butter melts and then wack on a load of ketchup.. Heaven!!

My mom always made me the lamest snacks as a kid. The one that sticks out for me is a stalk of celery with peanut butter smeared inside and lined with raisins. Who on earth comes up with these things...

I like mustard and cheese sandwiches. The two go well together for some reason.

I also like toast with salsa on it.

And I definitely second the person who said that sweet pickles are nasty. GOD are they ever. *shudder*

I can easily open a can of sweet green opeas, and eat the whole can happily. so good. People find that gross. But I loveeee peas.

ketchup and bologona sandwichs.

I love pickles (dill or sweet) can eat a whole can

Im not to strange. In the food catergory atleast lol

Oh and pickles. Dill with garlic. Not weird on their own, but I like to have a bit of pickle juice with them (I pour some in a bowl when I get some pickles out of the jar, then drink it after I eat the pickles). Yes, I realize it's essentially vinegar. Yes, I realize in theory this is disgusting.
Just reminded me of news years of this year. My friend couldnt find a chaser, so used a jar of pickles to chase his shots of rum with lol

vegemite. rocks my world
CONFESSION: I always thought Vegemite was just something "Men At Work" made up for the song "Land Down Under" :rofl1: I didn't think it was real! I googled to find out what it was (just now) :D

Anywho........one of my all time favorite snacks/deserts is potato chips using ice cream as a chip dip. I also love coleslaw as a chip dip.

Another one (that I learned from my mother) is a BOTTLE of pepsi with salted peanuts dumped in it. VERY TASTY!! :D

I'm a dill pickle juice drinker and green olive juice drinker. I always thought I was "odd" so I am glad to know I am not alone!

Hrm...I really don't like that much in the way of strange snack foods. Only thing that I can think of is that I regularly down entire jars of maraschino cherries. It's like $4 for 100 or so. Pretty good deal.

Only reason I say it's weird is my friends always say that would make them sick to eat that much. Doesn't really affect me and I think they'd be fine if they tried it.


Oh and if you save the juice and mix it with rum and coke or jack and coke it's pretty good. I need to try it with more drinks, but usually I just end up drinking the juice by itself.
I mix the juice with Mountain Dew. lol Not nearly as exciting as yours but tasty. :p

I LOVE raw potatoes with salt. You're literally the only other person I've heard of (other than my uncle who introduced me to it when I was a kid) who likes that. Everyones else thinks I'm completely banana sandwich for eating it.
My mom and I LOVE raw potatoes. She eats hers with salt, I just eat them "as is". :D

And I also love raw peanuts. OMG they're so yummy! I'd rather them raw than any other way.

Oh, & I'll also munch on uncooked spaghetti noodles. Quite tasty. :popcorn:

(And when I was little, I used to eat mayonaise sandwhiches. That's it...just mayo :cool: )

String cheese!!. One will last me a good hour because I shred it to strings as thin as a hair before I eat it.

Me and my string cheese drive my hubby absolutely crazy every time we're together :)hehe.

Potato chips with the cranberry sauce that comes in a can is one of my weirder ones. Uhm... I add Raw oatmeal and sugar to PB and eat it out of a baggy... I like chicharrones.... But that's not weird in Mexico lol. Fries in my frosty at Wendy's of course... I used to add milk to my soda to make my parents mad and it doesn't taste too bad. Also Mango or really any yummy fruit/veggie with a little salt and a tiny bit of chili is great... Blame California for that!

ETA; In the ilk of potato munchers, I eat tomatoes like apples... Plain and out of hand :)

Lol, I assumed the same thing. I guess that's what we get for not speaking their language.



And a random thought but it just popped into my head. If you watch Scrubs, there's a point at which the main guy (forget his name) busts out singing "Do you come from the land down under? Where women blow and men plunder? Can you hear can you hear the thunder! Better run, better take cover." while in a room with a patient.

That still makes me giggle.
