    Fish balls.

    It's actually not as bad as it sounds. It's beaten fileted white fish mixed with a little starch and sometimes egg whites to make a for a rubbery texture. It's similar to surimi (the imitation crab meat in California Rolls). Cuttlefish balls and squid balls are similar in texture. It's like a meatball. Serve boiled in soup, or grilled with a sauce drizzled on it. Good stuff.

    beets apparently

    Everybody else I know hates them.
    I hate them, but my parents love them!


    I LOVE raw potatoes with salt or season salt. People always think that's really weird
    I also like green onions raw & with ranch to dip in. This one might not be that weird but I don't think I know anyone other than my mom who likes to eat green onions as a snack rather than as a garnish or addition to a recipe.

    Edit because I remembered another - sunflower seeds. I especially like to eat them when I read. Most of my Harry Potter books have at least one sunflower seed shell stuck inside somewhere. As a snack during baseball season or something isn't that weird, but there are times when I eat bowls of them nightly. My mom is the same way & has sunflower seeds every night while she's watching her TV shows. When she quit smoking, she started eating sunflower seeds instead, so I think that's how that started in my family. My parents buy several pounds at a time from the bulk section at Winco & people are always commenting & asking about it, so I guess it must be pretty strange.

    sea salt.

    Just plain sea salt. I know thats so weird and its more of a mineral versus a food, but I've caught myself mindlessly eating sea salt in front of the computer. Its so strange! My mom had super weird cravings (salt and sand. hahaha would you believe it) when she was pregnant with me so I guess she passed it on!

    I love Spaghettios. Whenever I'm sick, or have a couch potato day planned, Spagehttios are my go to food, straight from the can.

    Oh my gosh, YES. Spaghettios are one of my favorite things. I LIVED on Spaghettios in college. I also like them unheated, straight from the can. What's even nastier is that I like the kind with the super fake hot dog in it the most!

    the weirdest food i've eaten is camel. actually, make that camel lasagne or camel spaghetti bolognaise

    it tastes like beef but it's more chewy, but camel mince isn't chewy, hence mince based dishes made with camel mince

    these days I mostly eat lamb mince, which tasted better than beef or camel mince, and since I moved away from Saudi Arabia I haven't seen camel mince on sale.

    Burnt thin crust pizza

    apparently eating cold pizza for breakfast is considered weird... but it's totally delicious, no-one should knock it until they've tried it....

    my daughter does this. she's seven. I didn't even teach her how to make sandwiches. She figured it out all by herself and decided to make mayonnaise sandwiches (among other weird combinations that she likes to eat)
