    I would eat hearts of palm like, right out of the can. Bizarre. I still like them though.
    I still do this. My coworkers think it's gross!

    raw beef and butter. I used to get in trouble all the time for getting into the fridge and getting that. My mom was convinced that I would die if I ate raw meat, but I kept doing it anyway. I'm not sure why I craved it so much

    you're a zombie. i hate to break the news to you this way.

    I'm sure all of us had the one food that most kids hated but you loved.

    For me it was lima beans and peas. My parents never had to fight with me to eat them lol

    I also loved lima beans and I still do! Also broccoli, brussel sprouts, and cooked red cabbage. I still love all of them!

    melted peanut butter on pizza... wowww... sounds gross til you try it :) It was a big thing at my grade school, since they always served the plastic pizza square with bread and PB on the side. I still like it but it doubles the calories in the pizza... :(

    Does anyone else remember when the pizza Lunchables used to come with marinara sauce, cheese sauce, chocolate sauce, M&Ms, and pepperoni? Yeah, I would use one crust to make a "normal" pizza, one with cheese only, and one with cheese mixed with the chocolate with pepperoni on top. I'd eat the M&Ms separately. I'm vegetarian now, but aside from that, I would totally eat that again... MMMM!

    I was the weird kid who liked butter WAY to much. I would wake up extra early so I could stick my finger in the tub of butter and eat it like icing without my mom chasing me around with a fly swatter. I also liked to eat jelly by itself as well. Waffle house workers would hide the butter and Jelly racks when I came in... True Story....

    my sister used to do the same thing with butter. It got so bad that they were planning to put a lock on the refrigerator at one point.

    I absolutely LOVED one of my mom's childhood favorites--peanut butter and mayo sandwich.

    I also loved my grandma's night-time specialty "milk and bread"--buttered bread cut into pieces and then put in a bowl with milk. Microwave the whole thing until warm. I still sometimes do this when I'm feeling sick. :)

    Oh, and my best friend and I used to experiment with food and make our own recipes. My lucky little sister "got to" (ie. was forced to) try them all. Our best combo yet (and actually found in a cookbook which I still own) was "orange soda"...orange juice mixed with Coke! Ewwwww!

    Cooked Spinach. It was a Popeye fascination when I was really little.

    Now, I can have spinach dip, raw spinach, but once it's cooked and turns into that slimy mess...Blech! :sick:

    I LOVED oysters, broccoli, brussel spouts, cabbage...

    Basically any vegetable normal kids would hate. Not many kindergartners love oysters.
    (Helps when your dad is a waterman.)

    Also I liked to take chopped up fish sticks, mac n cheese and canned peas, mix it all together and douse it with ketchup. Yuck!

    I would ONLY eat the Popeye brand spinach as a kid. I told my dad all the other kinds sucked because they wouldn't give me muscles like the Popeye brand would.
