Branston Pickle out of the jar with a spoon. Also; [QUOTE=TheChileanBlob] Peanut butter and mustard. [/QUOTE] Did I get this from you? I know it was from someone on this board. If so; thank you! It’s delicious. Try it between two rough-milled oatcakes - nothing finer. ---

**Nava** , I wonder what people find so “gross” about rabbit? I guess I could understand if you ate the innards/blood/eyeballs - a lot of people, me included, find that stuff kind of gross, no matter what the animal. But the “regular” meat ie muscle tissue? Is it perhaps the “cute bunny rabbit” factor? By the way, I remember eating rabbit meat once when I was a kid, and finding it quite tasty. ---

> [@Northern\_Piper](#): > > [Haggis.](http://www.worldburnsclub.com/begin/address_to_a_haggis.htm) Sheep’s liver, heart and lungs, ground up and cooked with oatmeal and pepper in the sheep’s stomach. With a nice sprinking of single malt as a sauce. Yumm! Until someone produces actual evidence of large numbers of genuine Scots eating what is verified to be actual haggis I will never believe that “food” to be anything other than the Scottish National Practical Joke On Tourists. I am convinced that as soon as someone leaves any Scottish pub after eating some haggis the whole place erupts into laughter, people are high-fiving each other and Angus puts another mark on the “gullible foreigners” scoreboard. Then they all go back to eating proper food such as beer. 😃 I don’t think I eat anything that disgusts people but I do eat food so hot it makes even my friends who claim to like spicy dishes say “AAAAAGGGGGHHHH!” I have a pretty high tolerance for heat. ---

I guess I should clarify… I was actually looking for weird combinations of foods, like cottage cheese with ketchup or pickle slices spread with jelly (rather than the haggis/liver/testicles fare). Carry on. 😃 ---

[Thousand year old egg](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Century_egg) is good with gruel. Also, stinky tofu. Spicy soup with pig intestines and pig blood cubes are delicious as well. Sea cucumber too. I think I’ve eaten most of the gross stuff that’s been listed so far and liked or tolerated most of them. But peanut butter and mayo? That’s just wrong! 😃 In the spirit of the thread though, putting ketchup on hot dogs would probably qualify. Also, I sometimes crave PB&J with a handful of cornichons on top. ---
