I don’t want to start my straight dope membership off with a perception that I am in fact…insane, but my friends and I enjoy:
Keebler softbatch chocolate chip cookies
dipped
in homemade guacamole
thank you…and goodnight.

Too late, you’re here and the fight is over. A big welcome to the cyber nut house jarbabyj!
This is one of my favorite sandwiches:
Bread can either be white bread or rye. I like rye. Toasted.
Mayo. Not that wussy Miracle Whip crap either. I mean real, taste the egg Mayo.
Sharp Cheddar Cheese. Extra Sharp Cracker Barrel is best.
Scrambled Eggs. Scramble McDonald’s style so it’s a big egg-cake.
Tobasco.
Salt and Pepper.
Now this is truly sick, and it was served to me on Thanksgiving:
English Peas, cut green onions, green pepper, pimentoes, and some other crunchy green shit that is nasty. Now, soak it all in white vinegar. It will form a slimy, gross mess in the fridge over night. Serve cold. Mmmm.
If I’m out of plum sauce, I’ll just use grape jelly on my moo shu pork pancakes.
Pork and Beans in Chili. Zenster’s already commented on that particular combination. Some others, let’s see… well, nothing offhand, but of course, I didn’t think P&B in Chili was all that weird either… oh well!
Grow up with a Dutch parent: Licorices that it salty. Adn I love the “Dubbel Zout”…a double dose of salt.
I don’t se what’s so weird about peanut butter + something sweet. Sounds like a variation on PB & J.
And why are certain foods only allowed at certain meals? Why can’t I have pancakes for dinner? Or lasagne for breakfast?

Also, in my younger and somewhat more munchy prone days
I would tend to get bologna, spead peanut butter on it, and then lace it with anchovies,then roll.
I stopped that,I kissed a LOT more now…
My mom used to make me peanut butter and maple syrup sandwiches for lunch when I was a kid. With a side of chili, that was my favorite meal between the ages of 6 and 11. I blame her for many things, and this is the root of it all, I think.

I can’t eat pizza or french fries unless I have Hidden Valley Ranch to dip them into. MMMMMMMMMMMMMM, Ranch Dressing.
This time of year, I use eggnog to make everything: hot cereal, rice, pudding, cocoa. It’s really GOOD.
Ok, here goes…

P.S. Forgot to mention the Hotdogs with Crushed Papaya & avacado! Learned that trick from some bad Matthew Perry movie!
Unsalted peanuts and iced tea.
I know, it sounds weird, but its good.
Also, something I once tried at a home buffet. They had a whole bunch of food items and you could combine them anyway you wanted.
I liked this: white rice, cut tomatoes, shredded cheese, and peanuts.
It IS good.
No, I don’t have a thing about peanuts.
The weirdest thing I ever made was when I was about 9, I put some raw hamburger inside two pieces of Hersheys bar.
I don’t recall if I ate it or not.
Welcome to the boards fellow authentic licorice consumer. I am so very impressed that you used your first post to mention Double Zout licorice. Tell me one thing, are you able to think of salted licorice without immediately salivating? It is impossible for me.
Finally, someone who understands.

What really sucks is that it’s always stale when I find it in this country (USA). It takes a trip to Holland (by me or a relative) or a visit from a relative living there to get the really good stuff. Giant bags of it…mmmmmmmmm. Just thinking about it makes me thirsty.
Yookeroo, you want to contact Ingebord’s (tel: 805.688.5612) in Solvang, they have a superb selection of Dutch and Danish licorice. Another purveyor of said candies is The Nordic House in Oakland, CA.
Although I just purchased four rolls of Klene Dubbel Zout the other day, I still favor the Danish licorices for their finer texture. They do not use flour in their candies and they have a smoother quality to them. I strongly recommend Lagerman’s “Piratos” or Haribo’s “Saltpastiller”. Either of these will satisfy your cravings. The “Super Piratos” are so strong that they will curl your toes!
Please email me if you have any difficulty.

Oh yeah RedVelevtSunset, I used to eat raw potatoes with salt when I was a kid.
Whenever I get lo mein or fried rice, I mix in equal amounts of duck sauce and hot mustard. If the mustard is really spicy, I use a little less of it.
Mr. Tech can’t watch me eat the concoction.
I am sitting here getting ready to feast when I realized I’ll bet you don’t see this one every day:
sliced tomatoes (sp?) and mayonnaise sandwiches. My husband thinks it’s a disgrace to tomatoes, unless I remind him about the raw potato thing!
One other thing…Does anyone think it strange to eat Matzos with butter and jelley if you aren’t Jewish? And as a matter of fact, I absolutely LOVE Borscht over cream cheese.

Pickled garlic and pretzel sticks , eaten together.
Someone earlier mentioned cornbread in milk. My mom, a former farmgirl used to crumble cornbread in a glass of buttermilk all the time. As a kid I found buttermilk itself pretty strange…
I can’t believe no-one has said McD’s chips with a soft serve yet. I like to put chips in my burger but when my friends watch me they’re like ‘WHAT THE HELL!?’
pfft, screw them!

I can add beans to anything. I grew up in bean country, and they had recipes for everything. Beans in meatloaf, refried beans in fruit smoothies, bean toppings on fruitcake cookies.
