French Toast toppings...

One of the three best hamburgers I ever had was a regular thick burger patty wrapped in what basically amounted to the outside of an omelet. Put it on a grilled bun, and the only condiment you need is salt. Yum…

(The other best burgers are tame…medium rare, with cheddar cheese, mushrooms, bacon, and a liberal dose of A-1, or the same thing, only topped with bleu cheese and bacon)

I used to add sour cream and Heinz 57 sauce to mine. Thick & spicy!

The weirdest thing I ever put together was purely for shock value (i.e. grossing out sister and friends) and was a ketchup, mayo & potato chip sandwich. Sounds kinda tame but they ran screaming, which was the effect I desired.

Doolin, man, thanks for the shot ideas. Gonna try those out sometime and see how bad they ruin me.

Actually, some of these food ideas don’t sound all that bad…


All Hail Unca Cecil, or the next best thing available!

You just reminded me of one of my summer camp favorites. Sloppy Joes with potato chips, only put the potato chips on the sandwich instead of on the side. This only works with those thick, ridgy chips (Ruffles are the best), but they’re damn good. We also made stuffed hamburgers at camp, where you’d take your hamburger patty, divide it into two, put what would normally be toppings (onions, cheese, etc) in the middle, seal the edges, wrap it in aluminum foil, and throw it into the campfire until well-scorched.

Oh, well putting potato chips in a sandwich isn’t strange, is it? You GOTTA do that with a tuna sandwich. Adds texture.

Oh yeah, mac&cheese with ketchup!!!

And, butter beans with mustard!!

Also, bologna w/ Miracle Whip and Frito’s on potato bread - the best!

You people are all sick, sick, sick! :slight_smile: I don’t think I have any strange food cravings. I am way too much of a picky eater for that.

The grossest thing I have ever seen someone else do, though, was take a twinkie, cut it lengthwise, and put a hot dog in the middle. Yuck!

Start with a Omelet with green pepper, mushrooms, and onions. (or what ever you like, a cheese omelet works too) Top with chile and serve with a side of salsa and a side of sour cream…Mexican omelet. A cafe where I grew up served these, really good but draws some strange looks.

Two awful food combinations I’ve run across:

1. An old college roommate would get rid of flat beer in the morning (y’know, the half-bottles lying around the day after a party) by using it instead of milk over Cheerios. He also smoked opium, so we expected this sort of behavior from him.

2 (this one still comes up regularly, because it’s a favorite of my inbred stepfamily and I see it at holidays and reunions): Fill a large bowl with cottage cheese. Stir in a packet of Jell-O powder, preferably lime. Add raisins and shredded carrots. Enjoy.

RRRAAaaalllffff…

I can see why…

Weird combos for me?

Mountain Dew and creamer. Be careful though that the creamer isn’t bad though, or it will explode when you put it with your drink.

Strawberry yogurt and rice krispies. Yummy.

[I can’t remember what this was called (I’ll look it up and get back to you), but it probably had something to do with fire. Cinnamon schnapps…and tabasco. I am not making this up.]

Red Hots! Had a friend of mexican persuasion who would do shot of tabasco and chase it with the c/schnapps. MEDIC!

My wife had a high-school chum who used to put mustard on cooked spinach. the resulting bilious yellow-green mess was the nastiest-looking thing ever.

Also, when I was a kid I had the nasty habit of dipping my Cheetos in my milkshakes. I don’t do that anymore, but I do like chocolate-covered potato chips…

1/2 Scottish…Always had ketchup on French Toast…that’s no big deal. But Gramma always made fried tomatoes with the Bacon, Eggs, Sausage, potatoe, toast and ubiquitous tea…AND Everone puts A-1 Sauce on their eggs, don’t they?
Americans are so provincial…

Did you see a person do this, or was it a movie? Weird Al did that in UHF.

One of my favorite lunches as a kid was hard-boiled eggs sliced in half and stuffed with tuna fish. Discard yolks (yuck), salt and pepper to taste, and serve with Cheetos™. Or stuff the Cheetos™ in too, what the hell. I would probably still be eating this if I wasn’t too impatient to boil and peel the eggs.

For maximum tuna cohesion, first stir into the tuna ketchup and Best Foods Sandwich Spread™ (“Best Foods” on the West Coast, anyway, I think it’s “Helmann’s” to everyone else in the country).

Yum-yum, Give me some!

In regards to French toast toppings, I had a friend who put corn syrup on hers. Just plain corn syrup straight out of the bottle. Thought that was pretty bizarre. I prefer applesause and cinnamon, myself :slight_smile:

Oooh, that reminds me of an evil thing my mom used to do. She would sometimes only buy white Karo syrup (corn syrup) instead of maple. She liked it just fine and thought everyone else should, too.

Karo syrup on pancakes… it’s just fundamentally wrong.

Well, commercially produced pancake syrup (Aunt Jemima, Vermont Maid, etc.) is pretty much 98% corn syrup, 2% (or less) maple syrup, and some caramel coloring. So you may as well just use Karo syrup.

For me, it’s 100% pure maple (Grade A Medium or Dark Amber, please) or nothing.

My Dear and departed Grandma would about once a week because brains are expensive eat…
Scrambled eggs and Calf brains with ketchup and Kayro Corn syrup. I always slept in when visiting Grandma.


<insert witty sig here>

My grandma used to eat brains and scrambled eggs, too. I’m just too squeamish to eat internal organs (I don’t eat spam or hot dogs, and I’m fully aware that if I saw how sausage was made I’d never eat it again, either, ergo I am never going to watch sausage being made).
