Weird Food?

[Teuthida]

Given my neighborhood we buy all our groceries from Asian markets. My favorite food is red bean paste dough balls...as well as red bean paste cookies...practically anything with red bean paste is delicious.

When I wasn't a vegetarian probably the weirdest thing I ever ate was a sea cucumber (sea slug). It tasted like warm hard jello that I couldn't break down into small enough pieces to swallow.


Also had ostrich jerky which was really really good.



People who know me think I have the weirdest eating habits. I make tomato soup by boiling water and squirting in a good amount of ketchup. I eat a jar of salsa for dinner sometimes. I don't eat meat but I like the condiments for hotdogs so I'll eat a hotdog without the hotdog...so that's sauerkraut, relish, and ketchup in a toasted bun. I put pickles on pizza. I dretch ketchup onto hard boiled eggs which I affectionally call "Bloody Eggs." Dunno if that's uncommon or not...roommate turned me onto it. Basically ketchup makes anything good.

Hummus is a staple in my family. Thought it was normal until I went to college and people were actually afraid of my dinner. Also like Tabouleh which is a lebanese salad of bulgur wheat and finely chopped scallions, tomatoes, mint, and parsley.

I like to dip roasted chicken in ketchup ... some people think that is wrong but I like it.

I also like toast with peanut butter and honey. But the bread has to be warm or the honey doesn't spread on the peanut butter right.

I feel like a loser, I don't like anything weird.



I do like the fine, fine appetizer of Caucasian pie though.

Actually, sometimes, I enjoy these fine two types of sandwiches:


A salsa sandwich
A BBQ sauce sandwich


I went throguh a phase of about a year, where on any hamburger or hotdog, all I would have on it was Mayo and BBQ sauce.


Salsa actually goes quite well on Hamburgers by itself though.

Salsa + chopped jalapenos on hot dogs = good.

I dip all meat in ketchup except for most sea food.

Fish, chicken, steak, bacon, etc.

People think I'm weird for that.

Ketchup is used by a lot of parents to mask the flavour of things. The high sugar content cancels out flavour. Maybe you just grew up not liking the flavour of meats.

This is why in Chicago they don't put ketchup on hot dogs.

I guess it got popular because people grew up having ketchup on their hot dogs, but seriously. Ketchup obliterates real hot dog flavour.

I have seen the light. Join me in my religious sect against ketchup on hot dogs.

I love the flavor of meat. It's just better with ketchup!

A few days ago I discovered a new combination: mashed potatoes with sambal. It gives it that extra spicy flavour that it can really use.

I can't think of anything really special. Perhaps macaroni with ketchup. Or even mayonaise. Yeah..... I don't eat that anymore though...
