Ewwww! Yummmm! Ewwww!

[tzikeh]

I'm sure we're aware that one person's vile, nausea-inducing bucket of slop is another person's most favoritest yummola snack in the world. Usually this discussion is limited to I love sushi / I hate sushi and the like, but what I have recently become fascinated, nay obsessed with, is certain combinations of food that most people would never ever have thought of but others adore.

esorlehcar likes to dip her french fries in her chocolate shake. whatssnoo puts tuna fish in her macaroni and cheese. Either of these combinations can have me fleeing the room. But I like to put grape jelly on my scrambled eggs, which disgusts both of them. (Jelly omlette! It turns the eggs sort of purplish-green, like a bruise! It's yummy!)

So, c'mon, 'fess up. What combo makes you all happy but sends other people out for fresh air? I'm just totally interested in the idea of bizarre food combinations that people actually eat.

Tuna and macaroni and cheese was a standard meal growing up. Very cheap for those on a strict budget, plus it had protein. Hot dogs were the other substitution. Green beans were the vegetable if you needed one.

I've tried the eggs and jelly, and it wasn't bad. It's not a regular thing, but I can understand the appeal.

French Fries in mayo isn't that weird, but I like it.

The most bizarre concoction of my childhood that was inflicted upon us by my mother:
Hot dog chowder. Basically a milk based soup with hot dog slices, corn and potatoes.

Hot dog chowder.

Um, kind of ewww. Also, for some reason (probably the fact that I really need to go to bed now) I would very much like this to be the name of a dance, like the Chicken Dance or the Beer Barrel Polka or something like that. "Come on now, everyone! Get up on your feet! It's time for the Hot Dog Chowder!"
