My dad used to take a slice of white bread, spread condensed milk on it and then top it with a slice of white onion. I cannot bring myself to try this.
There is also Guinness IN the cake.
I used to snack on a slice of rye bread sprinkled with Tabasco sauce; probably haven’t done that since high school.
Our company cafeteria had a salad on rotation that was extremely similar to this, but it had jicama chunks and parsley flakes. too. It was awesome! I got it every time it was available.
Interesting. I came in here to say “cottage cheese and kimchee,” which I always thought I was weird for liking, but is not very different.
Really! I grew up with peanut butter and mayo (Kraft). I didn’t think there was anyone else. (My father and brother were the only other ones I knew of).
The other thing I eat is peanut butter and Lebanon Bologna (from PA), a salami like meat.
My husband likes whitefish salad on his cinnamon raisin bagels. I do not. But I do like milk in my malta, so there’s that. And a blast from my past, a chunk of cheddar cheese in my hot chocolate. Use a saltine to scoop out the melted, hot chocolatey goodness.
I like a BBQ and Pimento Cheese sandwich.
I think we have a thread winner here!
What’s the BBQ in this case? I’m thinking it’s pulled pork with a sweet tomato sauce, but am wondering if it’s something else.
I like green olives in my tunafish sandwich. Is this a well-known deliciousness, or is it my own invention?
It may be the answer to a slightly different question, but there's a common 4-dish combination enjoyed by poor people here that seems fantastic to me, better than the sum of its parts:
(1) Laotian papaya salad -- ingredients include shredded unripe papaya, tomatoes, lime, garlic, shrimp paste, fish sauce, fermented fish, and miscellaneous beans and vegetables (especially yellow mombin).
(2) sticky rice
(3) herb sprigs, e.g. basil (or something more exotic like the leaves of *Cratoxylum formosum*)
(4) a little meat, e.g. beef jerky or fried chicken
The papaya salad will be mixed and mashed freshly when you order. Normally very hot chili pepper is one of the main ingredients, but I tell the chef the pepper juice left over in the mortar from the last customer will be plenty enough for me!Pulled Pork, but not sweet tomato sauce.
That combination is actually a bit more popular than one would think. This article even has the history of it. Apparently, it’s associated with the South and goes back to the Great Depression.
I’ve tried it, but it doesn’t quite work for me. I go the pickles route when I want something tangy to go with my peanut butter.
Makes sense. I’m not a big fan of cheese and meat together, but I can see that combination being fine.
Another good idea to try. Do you make your own Kimchi? I did once many years ago. I used nappa cabbage, Now I just buy the refrigerated at the Asian food market.
A farmer friend of ours had way too much cabbage this year, so she decided to adapt a kimchee recipe. At first I thought it seemed a lame idea, but wow, it turned out fantastic. It ended up very hot, but it’s a balanced heat utilizing onion/peppers/garlic/ginger.
Peanuts (specifically Planter’s dry roasted) and Fritos.
Yes, same here, especially cold pizza in the morning.
Is that you, nephew? I picked it up from my brother, who had two sons.
Grilled peanut butter, bacon, and banana sandwiches, I love the texture and the sweet and salty combo. For snacking, I love soft pretzels dipped in Caesar dressing. My daughter got me started on it, and I can’t imagine never trying it before.
