    Granny smith apples sliced up and sprinkled with salt are amazing. I always get looks when I eat them, but my dad always had them that way too.

    I like to top a baked potato with cold split pea soup instead of butter. Is that weird?

    The Chinese eat a lot of fruits with a light sprinkle of salt. Salt is a scent and flavour enhancer that can make fruit seem more fragrant and nuanced. My mom ate peaches and honey dew melons with a little salt.

    not weird at all...It actually makes what fruit your eating more 'sweeter'

    Canned smoked oysters on Lays original potato chips!! My family hates the smell but I love it! I don't get to eat it often because I developed a seafood sensitivity after having two children. Also, watermelon with Heinz 57 sauce. It's so good.

    I was recently gifted David Thompson's authoritative cookbook "thai food". I stumbled upon a recipe for chilli salt to sprinkle on tart fruit. A teaspoon of roasted chillipowder, 2 tablespoons of salt and 3-4 tablespoons of sugar. There is also an ancient version that contains toasted shredded coconut to sprinkle on mango and watermelon.

    My favorite way to make popcorn, air-popped drizzled with olive oil, braggs amino acids and sprinkled with nutritional yeast. SO yummy.

    I mix plain Greek regular yogurt and cold cooked rice together and add salt. It's like savory rice pudding.

    You should try spraying with pure coconut oil cooking spray......tastes soooo much better imo

    The only way I'll eat ketchup is if I put a ton of pepper in it.

    I used to do this, I would sprinkle ground pepper on chicken wings.

    I don't do these anymore.
    Mayo on saltine crackers,
    toasted rye/pumpernickel bread with Gulden's mustard. (okay maybe this one)
    Yellow mustard on potato chips, or a potato chip sand which.
    Italian dressing on bread
    Cinnamon in Breyers Vanilla ice cream. (Breyers ice cream bought out, they no longer use the original cream, sugar and vanilla recipe)

    I have clean up my strange stuff, most was so unhealthy.

    I didn't notice this was an old thread.....
