I don't think I've made a post on here about food, so here goes! 😃

I'll go first...I just love eating uncooked pasta. It has such a satisfying crunch and the tomato pasta and wholewheat pasta are my faves! This has been a habit that I've had ever since I've had teeth and people are always surprised that I haven't damaged my teeth doing this. I enjoy pasta cooked too!

uncooked pasta, uncooked noodles, flour, sugar, whole apple (with seeds and that wood thingy on apple), nails (not eat but chew and spit out), coffee beans. There might be more but can't think of right now.

Raw flour is not recommended for direct consumption because it can actually carry foodborne illnesses. I suppose you could “cook” it in the oven with no other ingredients to have a similar experience but killing any potential pathogens.

Yes, but cooking it at low heat can add a nice nutty flavor to it!

[-] BlemboTheThird@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 months ago

It really does. I'm one of those who like cookie dough more than actual cookies, especially when it comes to chocolate chip. Leave out eggs, add like a tablespoon more butter, and toast the flour beforehand, and you wind up with a truly excellent edible cookie dough. In my book, the nuttiness of the flour is makes it even better than regular dough.

I can relate, eating the whole apple is so efficient, even the wood thingy.

I like dipping meat sticks, preferably Peperami (brand here), into fruit flavoured yoghurt sometimes.

Not me, but an ex-girlfriend. She would fill a bowl with potato chips (crisps to you Brits) and then pour ketchup all over and eat it like a bowl of cereal with a spoon.

[-] Classy@sh.itjust.works 40 points 2 months ago

This is why she's an ex right

[-] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 29 points 2 months ago

That and she couldn't keep her mouth off another guy's dick.

[-] maxalmonte14@lemmy.world 34 points 2 months ago

But mostly the chips thing, right?

[-] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

Look, there are some things I can overlook in a relationship.

But eating a bag of lays with half a bottle of heinz ketchup poured on it? WITH A SPOON? 🤮

[-] mostNONheinous@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

Honestly doesn’t sound like a good time, don’t think the ketchup would be enough to save his dick from the chips in her mouth.

Milk mixed with orange juice looks terrible but tastes like an orange creamsicle.

[-] maxalmonte14@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago

That's a very popular drink here in the Dominican Republic, probably in Puerto Rico and Cuba too, you have to know the trick so the milk and orange juice mix well tho. It's called "morir soñando" (which means "to die dreaming" in Spanish) look it up if you feel like to.

This is very much a regional food around here, but if you’re not from here, with previous generations from here, it will seem like a strange food: the banana sandwich. This is peanut butter, banana, and mayonnaise (Duke’s Mayonnaise for any proper Southerner). People are generally on board until you mention the mayonnaise. I get that it sounds weird but is actually really good.

I hear it called a Southern thing but don’t know if it’s just a North Carolina thing or extends farther across the South. It is definitely a thing, though. I remember years ago one of the larger news outlets posted a question on their Facebook page, asking if people sliced their banana into planks or circles for their sandwiches and it got hundreds of comments in response with people arguing for one option or the other. I’ve always been a circle person myself. I can see a theoretical appeal for planks in having less open space but am so used to circles that I’ve never quite figured out the logistics of cutting straight planks out of a curved banana.

[-] Hazelnutcookiez 20 points 2 months ago

You lost me at Mayonnaise. But just peanut butter and bananas is amazing.

Dry sandwiches. I don't like most condiments on anything that I eat cuz I think it ruins the flavor. Most condiments are overpowering and just make food taste like condiments. Don't put them on anything. Not hotdogs, burgers, or sandwiches. The only exception I make is hot sauce.

Peanutbutter sandwiches with spicy, vinegar-based condiments instead of sweet ones. Mustard, cilantro chutney, peperoncini, that kind of thing. It's fantastic.

There is a cheese in my country- olomoucké tvarůžky, which is in itself acquired taste.

But I made "Loštický zázrak" which is this cheese pickled in beer, as a homebrewer I used half fermented beer. So smelly cheese fermented with beer.

You can smell this concoction in whole house when the jar was opened, but the taste was amazing.

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 months ago

Reminds me of Spanish 'Manchego' cheese. It's a semi hard gourmet cheese in most commercial places and it has a slight strong flavour. During a holiday once in the south of Spain, we went searching for authentic Manchego cheese in the Sierra mountains of Andalusia. The cheese we found was a very strongly flavoured hard cheese that was the consistency and taste of hot weathered plastic. Strangely enough, combined with strong Spanish onion slices and it was delicious .... and then mixing it again with strong Chorizo sausage, specifically the ones they make in the mountains which taste like well worn and sweated gym socks and it was a whole other thing to get accustomed to.

I've never met anyone IRL who understands how good a peanutbutter and nutella sandwich is.

[-] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago

this is an interesting answer to me.

I'm literally the only person in my life. I know who doesn't like peanut butter and Nutella mixed together, but everybody I know loves the combination.

I have 2.

Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches. Best served on the lowest tier white bread you can find.

The second is onion rings and maple syrup. I wish someone would do maple battered onion rings because those would definitely be delicious.

Not me but on The German cannabis community (C/cannabis@feddit.org) we recently had a post of someone eating yogurette (chocolate with fruits) with mustard while being high. It also included a rating of different mustard variations and how well they work for this.

And the more people hate it, the better for those who love it cause it keeps the quality up and costs lower.

Hello, I'm here to die on the hill that pineapple is a perfectly valid ingredient to put on a pizza, and would like to argue that any ingredient is valid to put on a pizza.

Americans just don't realize how sheltered their definition of pizza is. There are people out there committing food crimes you can't even imagine.

This one might be a little different.

I eat only once a day, but it's a big one, right before bed.
When I order takeout from... say my favorite burger place in town, usually a double cheeseburger, I ask that they apply no mayo, mustard nor ketchup, as I will reheat it all on the air fryer/toaster oven then apply condiments, don't want the bread to be getting soggy for hours before dinner.

I also tell them to put the lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles on the side, for the same reason. I bring my own reusable containers for the separate things, to create no plastic/styrofoam waste. That includes tiny ones for the dressing and for the runny cheese for the fries.

Which reminds me of the fries - back home, hours later, I will refry them for a minute or two, they come out almost as good as new.

But this all being home, I can also play around with the burger. Such as stuffing it with a full onion, thinly sliced and caramelized on low heat with olive oil, pepper and a dash of Lawry's seasoned salt. Maybe also sliced mushrooms sautéed in butter. I'll also add a few extra slices of yellow heirloom tomato.

One last thing: while the onions are caramelizing on the toaster oven, I'll also put another tray with a handful of asparagus in olive oil, pepper and garlic salt.

Like a friend described it, I like tuning the burger!
As in "car tuning", custom burger mods.

Personally, I don't think this is all that weird, but I like cold leftovers. My preferred breakfasts are things like cold pizza, cold mac and cheese, cold mashed potatoes, etc.

For some reason, my friends and family think it's gross and they always say things like "I don't know how you can eat that cold."

Not super weird but I usually get looks from others when I bust out a tub of cottage cheese as a dip for my chips. Spruced up version; Cottage cheese, chopped pickles, (Cholula chili garlic)hot sauce and a small dap of sesame oil is like the perfect ruffles dip.

Uncooked potatoes. Always gets me weird looks.

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 15 points 2 months ago

Because that's not weird; it's unsafe. Most people will get an upset stomach from eating more than a small amount of raw potato and if you eat a large amount, you could get solanine poisoning.
