I used to eat soft serve ice cream with pickles and fell asleep with watermelon Hubba Bubba in my mouth. Let's hear yours!

    Dipping hard boiled eggs in sugar instead of salt. Thought it was "normal" until I was about 10.

    Believe it or not, I was a picky eater as a real young kid. I didn't like chocolate, didn't like to try new things... Then all of a sudden that changed. I developed a biiig appetite and got fat. :(
  • I really liked going to fast food restaurants not because of the food, but because I liked drinking those little coffee creamer cups like shooters...lol

    My different foods could not touch each other, and I ate all of one before I'd start another.

    I use to eat the frosting out of the can... Mt mom always yelled at me because she would find the jar with a spoon in it in my room! I always had a stash of junk food in my room so my four younger siblings wouldn't get it!

    Wendy's frosty and fries! It's been a while, but mmm......its so good

    cottage cheese and baked beans, mixed together. Then I would use that as a dip for my chips, yum

    gummy candy, bears, worms, etc. I would lick then and stick them to windows and play out a little story, then eat them. I know gross right! my dad always said, "a little dirt never hurt no body" so I always ate food that had been dropped on the floor all the time too. my parents didn't care lol

    Yeah, I used to do this too.....

    And I would take a slice of cheese, like the kraft individual serving in the plastic wrapper, and make a ketchup sandwich. With just the cheese and ketchup.

    I didn't like melted cheese as a kid, or anything salty. Oh if only I had kept those preferences!

    I did this too. Except - mashed potatoes and corn. I mixed them together and topped with butter, salt and pepper.

    OH! And I had to dip my McDonald's fries in my chocolate shake. HAD to! :-)

    I used to steal equal packets or hot chocolate packets and eat them in the backyard secretly. Can you say sweet tooth?

    As a previous person said, I wouldn't eat anything if it had touched anything else. My older brother, on the other hand, used to mix EVERYTHING together until it was beige gunk. :sick:

    Just so! But then I moved to Texas in my early 20's and discovered Mexican food. All bets were off after that.

    I have two:

    When I was in grade school, I used to love to mix my peas into my mashed potatoes. I was yelled at by one of my teachers when she was the lunch room monitor (YOU'RE GONNA EAT THAT) and I said, of course I am.

    I would eat three plates of spaghetti at my friend's house (his mother was Italian). And then ask him to swing by Burger King for Whopper and fries before every football game.

    warm a flour tortilla for 20 seconds in the microwave, smear on sour cream, sprinkle on season salt, roll and eat. I still get a craving for it now but I started that when I was 13.

    All of these habits reminded me of eating kook-aid out of those little packets (no sugar in them) and drinking straight lime juice concentrate. No wonder I have a stomach hernia!

    Oh about those little creamers, I would shake and shake them to try and make butter. Didn't work.
