    I despise ketchup and only use it if I'm eating McDonald's fries.
    I love mozzarella cheese sticks dipped in cocktail sauce.
    BBQ sauce in Mac and cheese
    I hate mixing sweet and savory like a mcgriddle or Maple sausage.
    I can eat black and green olives all day.

    I like ketchup on most things especially eggs and I like salsa on eggs. No one in my house likes either of those.

    Salsa on eggs is the best!

    GREEN salsa...For some reason I like the sourness of it.
    Totinos frozen pizzas in the microwave.....the crust gets gooey....scrap off and eat the toppings with a fork....then roll the crust and chomp away. My husband gags lol

    Warm chocolate cake in a bowl with milk poured on it....kinda like warm cereal? I HATE icing so this works well. My grandma started this.

    I love limburger (spelling?) cheese....I will eat it plain without anything else!!!!

    Any raw dough....pizza dough, pie dough, cookie dough. Raw pancake batter, cake batter...whatever. Love it!!!!

    McDonald's ice cream and chips combo is always a winner in my book. I am a big fan of the sweet/salty combo in general.

    My OH will only have his plain French Toast with Ketchup. Apparently that's normal for him and I'm the weird one for having maple syrup!

    To those who love bacon with their peanut butter: this isn't so weird. In fact, for a while back in the 60's, you could buy peanut butter with "bacon bits" already mixed in. I think it was a Skippy product. The bacon bits were actually flavored soy, which was quite novel back then, but I remember really liking the flavor combination -- especially on crackers. Is anyone else old enough to remember this? Was it maybe just a Minnesota thing?

    Really not weird :p delicious though! Sweet/salty is probably my favourite combo.

    Marinated raw steak. Chop up steak into 1/2" cubea, Lime juice and chives, set for an hour. Nibble nibble nibble
    Steak tartare. Not strange. I do this with mahi-mahi as well.

    I do the mix-it-all-up with leftovers and dump on top of salad greens almost every day for lunch. Cottage cheese on top of anything savory, especially Italian.

    Here's a few from my childhood that I don't do anymore, but great food memories:

    Cake milk - especially chocolate cake with milk to make a big bowl of yummy glop
    Popcorn popped in bacon grease
    Tacos with peanut butter, cheese and ground beef
    Grilled cheese sandwiches dipped in cold chocolate milk
    Frozen cookies snuck out of the freezer when mom wasn't looking

    From my grandson - Strawberries and grapes dipped in hummus.
    From my husband - leftover mac and cheese on an onion bun (carb overload sandwich).

    I also used to eat Reese's peanut butter cups and Heath bars like others have described Kit-Kats. All the outside chocolate until you just have the inside peanut butter disc or toffee bar left, then nibble away. Ahhh, the memories.

    idk if they're 'food', but definitely the one i'm least likely to let the average member of the public catch me doing.

    if i have a box of smarties, i like warm them gently via body heat, and then bite the world's tiniest hole in the edge of each shell and use something like a paper clip to hollow them out. for one thing, you can make a box of smarties go a LONG way doing that . . . and for another i really love it when i've gotten all the chocolate out of teh way and i have a whole box' worth of empty smartie shells.

    because those are basically the best part of smarties.


    eta: i'll do the same kind of thing to those dipped cones from dairy queen, although not with a paper clip. obviously. and that's another perversity, i suppose. i LIKE that pseudo-chocolate that they dip those cones in.

    When I have cereal, I leave it in the milk for so long it's basically soup. Yum.

    You reminded me of a recipe I have for a cake (its for Froot Loops but you can use anything) where you pour the milk over the cereal, leave it for an hour, then strain it and use the sugary cereal milk for the cake. Delish.

    do they bake in in the shape of froot loops? because if' not then that recipe needs adjusting.

    i'm another lemon-and-sugar pancake person. that's not weird where i come from, it's ordentelik.
