    Peanut butter and pickled jalapenos is probably my most offbeat. Come to think of it, jalapenos are pretty good with a lot of things you wouldn't suspect, like tuna salad or chocolate ice cream.

    Roasted ants: have a lemon peppery flavor with great crunch

    BBQ scorpion: nutty and smokey

    Fried, descaled fish skin: light and sweet ( the sauce was sweet anyway)

    I tried lots of others that made me want to gag but I remember really liking these three.

    I also have green eggs and ham. I scramble eggs with ham, spinach, cheese and mushrooms, then slice avocados on top. Looks kinda gross, but tastes great!

    Scrambled eggs blended with nuked Stouffers spinach soufflé. Often served with sautéed onions and mushrooms on the side. We would make it for guests and they would look doubtful and then scarf it down. 40 yrs and we've never had leftovers!

    Smoked ham and swiss cheese, on a buttered (but not toasted) cinnamon raisin bagel.

    English muffin, toasted, topped with peanut butter topped and honey or karo.

    Cottage cheese and grape jam mixed together. Looks kinda gross but is quite tasty. Have a banana w/peanut butter on the side and there's lunch.

    Stuff it in a pita with sprouts and you have my Mom's favorite pic nic food. We ate this after every Lacrosse and Soccer tourney. Along with lbs of quartered Navel oranges! Great memories!

    Creamy peanut butter and sweet pickle sandwiches are amazing! I also do ketchup on my scrambled eggs (never considered this weird...but ok). Also love fried eggs over pan fried polenta with a little hot sauce and crushed red pepper.

    I am basically the walking poster child for weird food combinations. My family and boyfriend tease me about it all the time!

    Some of my favorites are:
    Whole wheat noodles in ketchup instead of pasta sauce
    Carrot sticks dipped in mustard or hot sauce
    Watermelon with sea salt sprinkled on it
    Yogurt with peanuts mixed in

    Rice in bbq sauce.

    I always thought it was normal until I married my husband. He watched me do it a few nights in and told me I was crazy.

    Banana wrapped in American cheese - Learned from an old Mr. Rogers episode. I swear, Google it!!

    Most people think that I am disgusting because I love pickled hearing and scrapple. If you don't know what scrapple is made from......don't ask. Also, I put some type of hot sauce on pretty much everything....and I mean everything. Ice cream anyone??

    I thought that ketchup on scrambled eggs is pretty normal, at least in my parts.....

    Peanut butter, bananas and bacon on a hamburger. It's AWESOME. Bonus points if it's chunky PB

    I love peanut butter & sweet pickles on whole wheat bread!
    My Mom used to make mayonnaise, peanut-butter, pickle, and onion sandwiches. They're still pretty good without the mayonnaise; the peanut-butter and pickle flavor combination is really interesting.

    1 can of Tuna (drained) with 4 Tbsp of fresh salsa. No mayo, just the tuna and salsa. Everyone thinks I'm strange when I eat this but it is amazing!

    My wife thought fruit with chili powder was weird. Standard in Mexico :) Anything goes: mango, pineapple, apple, banana, cantaloupe, coconut...

    Spicy chocolate sorbet is glorious. Bacon covered in dark chocolate is, too.

    My mom puts popcorn in her soda Icoke, specifically) when going to a movie... that's beyond my understanding, but I think she likes slightly salty soda.
