      I don't think this is probably too odd, but I dip my potato chips in pork n beans. I do the same kit kat thing as the people posted above... eating all the outsides off, then taking apart the layers. :).

      I've never heard of that before, but it sounds amazing!

      I leave my teabag in until I'm completely finished drinking my tea.

      I don't consider this weird, but if I order a soup and sandwich. I insist that the soup waits until I'm served my sandwich, because the soup becomes my dipping sauce for said sandwich.

      You can't not dip the sandwich. That's madness.

      Grilled cheese just isn't the same without tomato or cream of mushroom soup to dip it in! I've never dipped other sandwiches in my soup before, but I bet it would be good!

      I love eating leftover food, but not reheating it, just eating it cold is best. Like pizza or burgers, mmmmm it’s so good. I especially like eating the cold pizza with a cold glass of almond or coconut milk.

      When I was younger, I put milk in my Dr. Pepper. (Don't drink sodas at all any more.)

      Yes we always did that with milk and a local fizzy red drink - no Dr Pepper where I was growing up.

      I do the same. Had no idea it wasn't common practice!

      I can eat anything for breakfast, doesn't have to be breakfast food...like soup.
      Sometimes I like to put ketchup on my oatmeal. :smiley:

      You could be asian. Most of our breakfasts are savoury noodle soups, Laksa in Singapore and Malaysia, Pho in Vietnam, etc.

      @ella82 I might have to try this. I enjoy savory oatmeal.

      @DeserveVictory that sounds amazing.

      So many yummy "weird" ideas from this thread.

      I don’t like to waste my almond milk, so after I’m done eating cereal I put the bowl with the left over milk in the fridge and reuse it when I’m ready for another bowl 😂

      Apparently 3 minutes is a good guide, but I've seen some take it out in much less time than that. Been told that's what the dainty little saucer is for under your traditional teacup. I use a mug, and have no such hangups about what to do with my teabag while drinking.

      I like to drench fresh peach halves and pinapple chunks on skewers with balsamic vinegar and grill them. Everybody looks at you weird but they're yummy.

      I put tuna and salsa in my mac & cheese. My hubs likes it that way now, too. In fact, if I don't add the tuna and salsa, he gives me a pathetic whine and a sad/confused face.

      I heard! I don’t drink almond breeze anyway and I have no issue with real milk. I just drink unsweetened almond milk because it’s low in calories lol. Thanks for the heads up though! @DoubleUbea That was nice of you :)

      That sounds good, but a salty vinegar is good on anything.

      I would try that (would have to use Diet Coke), but for the fact that an old friend told me that, if you drink milk and then drink Coke, you’ll cancel the calcium’s blessing (not to mention needing about an hour of alone time to deal with the belching!).

      A lot of my east Indiana friends (when I lived back home) would use pink cream soda and put milk in it. Claim it tastes like strawberry milk. Tried it and it really isnt that bad.

      I only like any sandwich I make at home to be smashed/flatten (like pancake flat), tear the ends off and put them on top, flatten some more then eat it. Only exception is brisket corned beef & pastrami sandwiches

      I have to cook my corned beef and pastrami deli meats, I won't eat it unless they are cooked a bit.

      I only like meats well done (little to NO pink). Same for packaged & frozen foods, whatever the instructions say, I'll leave it in the oven or stove 5-10 minutes or more longer than the directions say, to make sure it's well done.

      I only eat bananas if they have a wee bit of green on them, I like them a bit raw and won't eat a ripe banana, period.

      I love mangoes drenched in hot or tabasco sauce, lemon juice and salt

      I put salt on my watermelon

      I love foods that make me work to eat them (pomegranates, sunflower seeds, crab legs, nuts, etc.)

      I prefer eat the hard part (the edges) of brownies and most cakes/bakery goods and leave the very soft part.

      I won't eat scrambled eggs, only hard boiled or over medium/hard or over hard

      I don't eat many weird foods, but I do some weird things with food.

      I will only ever microwave things for 90 seconds. Half the time, if it's still cold in the middle afterwards, I just suck it up and eat it anyway.

      I eat my things in a very specific order - worst to best. OH eats it best to worst and I can't understand why he'd want the last bite to be of something lame.

      I can't handle sweet things with savoury, like sweet and sour chicken, but I do like savoury with sweet like pretzels and chocolate. I don't know what the difference is between the two.

      I dissect everything I can - Kitkats, M&Ms, Mars Bars, carrots (the core is definitely sweeter).

      Pizza crust is my favourite part of a pizza.

      Cold chow mein is so much better than hot.

      If I have a baguette I pull the soft inside out and eat it on its own, then spread butter on the crust and eat that.
