    I did then, and still do, love a good bowl of potato-in-vinegar, which as an adult I have been made fun of for, and grossed out friends with-- doesn't matter. SO GOOD.

    My brother and I used to get in so much trouble for eating butter sandwiches! Ugh. And I used to be obsessed with Vienna sausages (I shudder at the thought. I'm a vegetarian now.) And I looooved Ramen noodles. We were really poor and had those for dinner a lot. My dad called them "ballerina noodles" to make us more excited about them. Haha.

    I would dip everything in something else. I would dip corn; cornbread, macaroni etc. in mashed potatoes, sandwiches in soup, almost anything in ketchup...
    Oh wait... I still do that. :)

    Pickled onions...could literally eat a big bowl full...Probably still could haha! I also used to eat sugar sandwiches and if I wasnt in the mood for sweet, I would have a piece of bread soaked in vinegar and covered in black pepper :)

    Baloney and butter on white bread. Loved it! Can't even imagine eating it now. :sick: Oh and pork rinds too. Double gag!

    I still love peanut butter and honey sandwiches, and also grilled peanut butter and grape jelly sandwiches.
  • Peanut butter and leaf spinach on wheat. Ketchup sammy, mustard sammy. Raw hamburger with onion on a saltine with salt & pepper. Yes, I love the fried bologna sammies too (Chicago, for all you PA people out there.). Eating tomatoes whole (like an apple) with the salt shaker next to me.

    My dad ate grape jelly on pizza..... :noway:

    I'm told I used to eat onions like they were apples.

    I still love onion, but, that's not happening anymore. I wasn't kissing boys then, haha.

    That's the way I eat them 90% of the time. Great crunchy snack with a little salt or dill. :)

    Squishy-soft white bread with sliced pepperoni and butter. Grape jelly on my scrambled eggs (thanks, Dad). Toast with butter and cinnamon sugar. That canned alphabet soup with the weird orange broth. Raw bacon.

    Powdered milk. Just the powder though. I actually still like that but haven't eaten it in years. I also used to like raw spaghetti and raw rice as a kid.

    Liver and onions (and still now occasionally). Cold hot dogs right out of the package, though I would never ever eat a cold hot dog now.

    Butter!! As a toddler, myy mom said she would find me inside of the refrigerator in the middle of the night gnawing on a stick of butter!!! *gag* I still love the taste of butter, but eat it rarely.

    Canned spinach. Plain. Just heat it up and I would eat the whole thing! LOL
