Scrapple Frog’s legs I’ve been known to pour Old Bay seasoning into a small Dixie cup and just nibble it off the tip of my finger. Oh, I love Old Bay so much! I only have to think of it and my mouth waters. ---

Add a couple of thin slices of good white onion, and some mayo, to that egg on bread… That’s something my dad ate all the time, but while I was growing up, I hated eggs. Now, I like those same sandwiches, though admittedly once in a blue moon. WORST BAD BREATH EVER!! And worth it. ---

peanut butter and sweet relish sandwich. Loved it as a kid and would eat it now. Also butter (yes, real butter, not margarine) and peanut butter sandwich. This one grosses out my family ;p [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/what-do-you-or-someone-you-know-eat-that-would-make-others-go-eeewwwwwwww/522991.md?page=6)
