What do you eat that isn't to bad for you and sound weird but tastes good.
Weird combinations,

I like peanut butter, egg and cheese on wheat bread. The flavors once combined go real well together, especially if you like peanut butter.

What foods do you combine? I'm looking to try some new stuff.

    My hubby thinks it's weird I like peanut butter and honey sandwiches, as well as grated carrot and sultana sandwiches.

    Pickled eggs.

    Stick hard boiled eggs in a pickle jar and leave them for a few days. They come out green and tasting like egg salad. I love them! We call them Rattlesnake Eggs. :)

    According to my DH, who also eats "bloody eggs' (ketchup), mushroom and olives are weird. From a man who's eggs are RED for crying out loud! LOL.

    Whoa! That is quite an odd combo... I can't think of anything too "out there" but my husband likes bbq sauce on his baked sweet potato.

    The weirdest combo I have heard is a BLT with peanut butter! That sounds nasty to me, but I have a friend that swears by it.

    Strawberry wafers cut up in vanilla frozen yogurt (not strange to me, but my boyfriend always raises an eyebrow when I make it)

    I'm a big fan of the peanut butter pickle sandwich.

    Also, I make BLTs: Bacos, lettuce, and thousand island dressing sandwich. I pile on the lettuce, make it super crunchy.

    Chopped cocktail olives with the pimento, toasted chopped pecans and cream cheese blended together and spread on toasted raisin bread. My grandmother made these for every road trip. We would pull into rest stops, go to a pic nic table and unwrap the waxpaper wrapped sandwiches and enjoy with sweet tea.

    Pineapple rings topped with a dollop of Hellmanns mayo and sprinkled with finely shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

    Cantaloupe dusted with fresh cracked pepper

    Buttermilk topped with fresh cracked pepper and served with crunchy oatmeal cookies

    My brother always did popcorn and ranch, BBQ chips and ketchup, and now his new one, goldfish and milk! All gross to me.

    My odd ones are probably goldfish and Nutella. I personally love Nutella on almost anything.

    All of these sound great to me! You reminded me of my mom's 'fruit salad' - lettuce with a canned pear half on it, topped with a spoon of mayo.

    My grandma made those too! You reminded me of sugared lemons, which we ate as kids. We'd cover a half of a lemon with sugar and then suck the juice out, through the sugar. Yum!

    I dipped carrots in hooters hot sauce the other day. That was odd but delicious.

    Did you ever sprinkle on a dash of cinnamon? Ahh, the Wonderbread butter sugar sandwich. I would try to copy it at home with our Roman Meal bread.

    Are you from East Texas?? My mom made the same thing! Or maybe she got the recipe out of Better Homes and Gardens or something. She would sprinkle grated cheese on the mayo. And she also would do the lettuce leaf with a canned peach half, filled with cottage cheese. That was our 'fancy' salad for Sunday dinners.

    Leftover mashed potatoes and eggs all scrambled together with a side of cottage cheese. Now that I'm tracking, egg whites instead of whole eggs, but in my family we all fought over the leftover mashed potatoes the next morning. One time in college I went to Cheesecake Factory and they had a mashed potato and egg omelet so I know I am not the only one, but my friends all think I'm crazy when I mention this food combo.

    I was born in Witchita Falls! Good guess! I now remember the peaches with the cottage cheese since you mentioned it. I'm thinking Better Homes & Gardens is the culprit - lol. Did your mom ever make 'Texas Hash' ? That was a cheap, weeknight standby. Ground beef, onions, green peppers, and rice in one big sloppy casserole. LOL

    I like spaghetti sauce on spaghetti squash. Cuts my simple carbs down and it's actually quite good.

    As a kid, we ate smashed banana and peanut butter sandwiches, peanut butter and bologna sandwiches, milk-toast, which is leftover toast on a plate, covered in sugar and milk. And also graham crackers with mayo spread on them. And salt on watermelon.
    I still like ketchup on scrambled eggs.
    At 3am one night in my 20s, I discovered I really loved chili cheese and onion omelets!

    She was always making casseroles. Ground beef with sliced potatoes and cream of mushroom soup; pork chops and rice cooked with onions, mushroom soup and tomato soup. Also macaroni, canned tomatoes, and sliced up weiners. She always made that when we were sick, as it was supposed to be easy on our stomach. lol.
