I’m not sure whether anyone will actually think this is gross (I can’t get my housemate to eat it), but when I lived on the Big Island I picked up on the “loco-moco” for breakfast: A bed of rice with a hamburger patty, fried egg, and brown gravy stacked. It’s glorious. ---

One of my absolutely favorite meals is liver with lima beans. MMMMMM. (Most people have never had liver properly cooked, BTW. It’s all too often overdone and turned into shoe leather.) * * * “East is east and west is west and if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does.” – Marx Read “Sundials” in the new issue of Aboriginal Science Fiction.

Ok, _ahem_: Cottage cheese with strawberry jam mixed in. Liverwurst & Plum jelly sandwiches. Sardine sandwiches with malt vinegar (the British in me). ---

Blue; I think voltaire was right. I believe you are referring to the legs of the squid. They might actually be called tenticles–I don’t know–but they most certainly do not have suction cups on them like octopi. I’ve bought whole fresh squid at the market many times and can assure you they have no suction cups. * * * “I should not take bribes and Minister Bal Bahadur KC should not do so either.

Already mentioned, but I kind of like spam. Beef tongue. My parents made brains (from cow) in a white sauce a few times, and I really liked it. One of my bachelor staples was this sandwich: two pieces of toast, tofu and basil/garlic spaghetti sauce. For a quick dinner: throw a can of tuna, a bag of chips, and some milk in a pot, and cook it until the milk has mixed in with the chips and tuna to make a kind of casserole. Mustard on almost anything. (but **not** French’s yellow mustard.) Lately I’ve become hooked on the vegetarian meat substitutes you see at the grocery store: “bacon”, breakfast “sausage”, breakfast “sausage patties”, or even the “vegetable crumble” that you can use in lieu of ground beef for a marinara sauce. * * * Quand les talons claquent, l’esprit se vide.

I was all set to say spam, whish is true, but I see that several other people here share my refined taste in refined meat products. I knew the SDMB was a select group (well, mostly). Therfore, I shall have to say: raw beef, served with a raw egg and sliced apples. Yum. * * * - The best lack all conviction The worst are full of passionate intensity. \* ---

Oooh, thanks for the reminder… Leftover pasta, quickly stir-fried with olive oil, minced garlic and a few healthy squirts of Tabasco. Pamesan optional; nice for texture, but who can taste it? Chopped black olives are nice as an addition. Aglio y olio y Tabasco? Not that I’v ever treated anyone else to this particular culinary breakthrough. Sooo…who wants to stop over for dinner? Veb (P.S. You Canadians. Quite right on the mayo and fries thing. Hey, who cares about arterial sludge? Just keep schlepping on the kosher salt…) ---

A seasame seed bagel with butter and grape jelly with ham and cheese. Marshmellow fluff and peanut butter on potato bread. Ham and cheese on potato bread (or sliced italian bread) with black cherry yogurt to dip it in. I though some of my tastes were weired until I read all of the things posted here. ---

I love to eat bream, and when I’m done with the meat, turn it around and eat the crispy tail in one bite… it’s like a potatoe chip almost. BTW, my cousin likes chocolate ice cream with parmesean cheese on top, and I have been known to mix mac-&-cheese with worcestershire sauce! And lets not forget my great-grandmother, who was famous on her street for the worlds greatest squirrel gravy!!!
