I'll start: pesto as a bagel topping.

I used to eat onion and mustard sandwiches years ago. They're not bad, actually.

I could see this slapping with cooked onions and Dijon on a nice crispy bread

My husband cringes every time I do it.

Pizza with hollandaise sauce base instead of tomato sauce. My father almost disowned me for it.

Have you ever tried French fries in hollandaise? I've had it once and it was the greatest fry topping I've ever had.

I loved cream cheese and grape jelly sandwiches when I was a kid! Nobody else was convinced that it’d be good, but it certainly works for me

You should try cream cheese with a spicy pepper jelly on crackers! So good.

Pesto on a bagel sounds good as h*ck tho

I’m one of the teeming dozens who like circus peanuts and necco wafers. I may, however, be the only one under fifty years old to do so.

If I find a good bell pepper, I will eat it whole like an apple.

When I get a beverage/food garnished with an herb like a sprig of mint or rosemary, I like to nibble on them. My friends and girlfriend sort of lost their minds when I took a bit out of a cinnamon stick from a cocktail.

Haven't eaten it since I was 16 or so, but I loved toast (white bread) with ketchup and nutella (yes, spread on the same side, not like one half ketchup and the other half nutella)

Edit because it came to my mind: My girlfriend finds it really weird that I like to spread mayonnaise on my meat-bread (like proper bread with salami or other sliced meat sitting on top of mayonnaise)

I love eating a raw potato like an apple, for whatever reason. Any time I'm cooking a dish with potatoes, I'll wash and peel one for me to eat. My boyfriend looked like I had grown a third arm the first time he saw me do it.

It's the perfect mix of crunchy and juicy, but not sweet.

chips + jam

specifically, kettle chips (plain salted or unsalted) with a nice strawberry or blackberry jam to dip them in...

where it really gets controversial is that I like to do this with the bonne maman jams 🙈

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I could imagine the sweet and salty goes well together. I like when a charcuterie has a nice jam and brie. A cracker or piece of bread with brie, prosciutto, and jam, I could eat so many of those.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

exactly! sweet and salty plus CRUNCHY (the best texture). it's heavenly.

also: hard yes to baguette with brie, prosciutto, and jam. i also love using an apple slice as the base for those toppings.

A friend once turned me on to peanut butter and tuna sandwiches.

I... do not know why I thought that was good at one point, now that I think about it.

Make a bowl of chili, make a peanut butter sandwich, drop the peanut butter sandwich in the bowl of chill, eat it. I think this is a midwestern thing and everybody else thinks I'm nuts until they try it.

My wife would say: Kipper Snacks

Stinky fish is delicious.

Greek yogurt and natural peanut for breakfast. Not really that odd in my opinion but the face of the people I tell that too say otherwise.
