Now that’s good eatin’! > 😃 The crumbs in a chip bag are great when used as a meal on fried fish. Take the crumbs and run em through a chopper or processor and add them to the flour/corn meal mix and when fried thet really add to the crispiness. I like a bit of garlic salt and lemon pepper added as well. (I save my chip crumbs just for this purpose.) If I’d been **Aesiron** I would’ve cut that onion into slices and w/ a bit of water, battered that sucker up with the chip meal and had some damned good onion rings. A little ketchup on the side would’ve been nice too. 😃 ---

> [@ponderer](#): > > I watched a friend of mine eat a whole can of Strongheart’s Liver flavored dogfood that he thought was a can of refried beans. 😃 😃 😃 just nearly lost my coffee on the keyboard. Man that’s fucked up! You let the guy eat a can of dogfood? 😃 😃 😃 I’ll admit, I buy my dog really good gourmet dogfood and some of it smells and looks like real food. I guarantee I could put some out at a party and it’d get eaten. Some crackers and cheese whiz on the side. Yeah I can believe it. 😃 I looked on the label and the ingredients are supposedly 100% beef, chicken, and all natural etc… probably as good or better than some of the potted meat you get at the grocery store. ---

I might’ve done that but my stove doesn’t work and I don’t think baked onion rings are all that easy to make. ---

At beach week my roomies and I had peanut butter sandwiches covered with snack mix: pretzels, peanuts, cheezits, etc. Pretty tasty but it looked like someone had used them to sweep the floor under the store snack display. ---

Plain pringles with peach ice cream as dip. Sounds gross, but was really good. Of course, I haven’t had any desire to try it since (and that was at least 30 years ago!!) ---

Damn, 30 years ago. I remember when Pringles first came out but it sure doesn’t seem like it’s been 30 years. Gettin old I guess…funny I don’t feel old. Strangest thing? hmm, how about… a spaghetti sandwich? naah everybody eats those hmm… let me see, what about… a chili omelet? not too good :dubious: er…maybe uh…hmm leftovers stew? I mean a stew made out of leftovers. My roomate cleaned out the fridge…and put everything in a crockpot with about a half a block of Velveeta cheese. Later…everyone was jonesin’ for something to eat. He pulls out this cheesy shit and gives everyone a big bowl and spoon. It was funny as hell. One guy’s saying it tastes like pizza and the other is saying it tastes like KFC. One guys pulls out a half raw piece of bacon and I realized then what the fucker had done. Especially when it tasted like dark Lowenbrau. That sob had cleaned out the box and fed it to everyone at the same time. 😃😃 😃 ya know what? not countin the bacon it wasn’t all that bad… 😃 the things people will eat when they’re stoned :smack: ---

Not me, but my great grandmother. Towards the end of her life she was a real psycho bitch and so her daughter, my grandma would give her “happy custard” which was custard with a valium. The doctor told her to. Anyway, I was visiting and was left alone with great grandma who took a cup of what she thought was happy custard out of the fridge. I immediately saw it was bacon grease, but let her eat quite a bit before she declared “this ain’t custid!” It’s nearly 30 years later and I still don’t feel guilty. ---

this wasn’t precisely sheer munchies, it was a combination of flavors I wanted to savor, and didn’t feel like waiting for three different meals to enjoy each: I made liverwust sandwiches using brown sugar cinnamon Pop Tarts instead of bread, and washed it down with REAL grapefruit juice, not that sweet stuff. I also found a great use for some REALLY naaaasty nacho cheese/salsa mix that someone bought for me - I’d tried it with chips and it was awful, but damn it made a great dip for raw broccoli… [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/whats-the-strangest-thing-youve-eaten-out-of-sheer-munchies/269532.md?page=3)
