> [@IvoryTowerDenizen](#): > > My daughter eats peanut butter on a hot dog. I still love her, though. Have you tried it? It’s actually quite good, especially when you add Sriracha to the mix. The dog has to be fried or grilled, however. The combination of smokey, hot and nutty is good stuff. For me, it’s peanut butter and mayo sandwiches on white bread. My wife leaves the room. I deliberately ask for a side of mayo at a burger joint, because not only do I like dipping my fries in it, it grosses out the people sitting around me. What, you don’t like potato salad either? ---

mayo, ketchup and a scoop of pickle relish. This is called Thousand Island Dressing, I believe. Or at least that’s what my mother called it. Fried chicken livers, heavily dipped in ketchup. My husband refuses to be in the house with me when I’m cooking/eating those, but man, are they good! ---

French vanilla ice-cream on top of pepperoni pizza. It sounds ghastly, but was actually remarkably yummy. ---

Raw hamburger with a bit of salt. Sometimes that’s local carefully stewarded grass-fed . . . and sometimes that’s what was on sale from the grocery store that probably contains components from hundreds of cows. Ironically, I normally eat so little meat that people often assume that I’m a vegetarian. I suppose when my body decides it is time to top off the iron, the message is urgent by that point. ---

That kind of sets off my “ew” factor as ground beef is almost akin to raw chicken in it’s germy content, as well as it being close to “here’s the leavings we squeegeed up off the cutting room floor…grind it into burger”. ---

One very hot day I came home and couldn’t decide between a beer and a scoop of ice cream. So naturally I compromised and made myself a beer float. IPA with a scoop of vanilla. It wasn’t half bad, actually. ---

Canned pear halves with a dollop of Miracle Whip in the middle. My mom eats this. She also eats liver sausage and Miracle Whip sandwiches. She’s so fecking weird. ---

Haggis. Really. And anchovies. And here’s a sandwich my mother used to make us kids, and I’ve made it as an adult and it’s really, really tasty. Toast white bread. Layer it with peanut butter, mashed banana, mayonnaise, and bacon. Squish together, and eat. ---

> [@Ellen\_Cherry](#): > > Hey I don’t think you’re insane either, regarding the mayonnaise and ketchup. We used to make it all the time when I was growing up; it’s similar to French dressing. Plus I eat mayo and ketchup on hamburgers all the time. When I was a kid, this was an impromptu salad dressing. Add sweet relish and it’s Russian dressing. > [@](#): > > When I was in my 20s I used to mash butter and flour and sugar together to create a makeshift cookie dough when I was craving that and couldn’t be bothered to make actual cookies. Mmmm. Add a splash of vanilla for variety. Or use brown sugar or confectioner’s sugar. ---

My mother makes a cold potato salad with mashed potatoes, cider vinegar, and chopped onions, chopped boiled egg, and chopped pickles. I love it. As a sandwich. ---

Since I was a kid, bolony with mustard and mash a handful of potato chips in there. Not so much gross, but unusual. ---

> [@Ellen\_Cherry](#): > > When I was in my 20s I used to mash butter and flour and sugar together to create a makeshift cookie dough when I was craving that and couldn’t be bothered to make actual cookies. Mmmm. Heck, I still do that. Brown sugar, butter, flour, a titch of water, and then either vanilla extract, almond extract, cocoa, or any combination depending on what I’m craving. Can even stick it in the microwave for a few seconds to make it half baked! I don’t think anyone would ever look at that and say “ugh”. ---
