Weird foods

[oblio]

I went through a while where I really wanted to eat a Sharpie. Yes, the pen. I didn't, I know better, I just really wanted to. These days I want to drink pasta sauce. I don't care if it's on anything, I'm more than happy to drink it out of the bottle. One of my all time favorite weird foods is green olives, hard boiled eggs, and miracle whip.

I can't be the only one with unusual tastes. What weird thing do you crave?

I'm totally with you on the green olives, for some reason they induce me into a hunger trance. I also love black olives on pizza.

My mother used to drink salsa and call it "gazpacho," i guess it is close!

Nothing weird about eating olives. Sharpie, yes. But when I was a kid, I used to chew on the ends of my pencils after the eraser was used up. I don't have a weird food cravings anymore since I was about 10. I think my cravings was called pica. I heard it was due to lack of certain nutrients that our body needs. Some people eat clay, chalk, or glass. Heard it on TAL once during a run. I almost threw up listening to the story. Worst.story.ever.

My mom would eat bowls of this black bean/corn salsa she found once, she said it was like a bean/corn salad.

When I was really little, I used to imagine what it would be like to eat those soap hanger things (like you put in dishwashers), I thought they would be like a minty popsicle.  I never did, though.

When I start to crave pasta sauce, I know it means I need energy.  Because pasta sauce comes with pasta...which is yummy carbs, which means energy. Seriously, if I start craving pasta sauce, it is usually because I have been worn out or been working out too much or not getting enough calories (this latter is pretty rare.)  It took me a while to figure that out actually.

i crave peas almost exclusively.  as i eat a lot of other foods high in vitamin c, i'm not sure which of the other nutrients my body wants. 

anyway.  i like cooked (hot) peas with caesar dressing - while i don't think that's particularly odd, others have commented.

Olives and hard boiled eggs are pretty standard around our house!

I used to crave broccoli slaw with ranch dressing (which I normally avoid) stuffed in a pita.

I don't consider olives as weird because it's a staple for us. We snack on the black ones all the time. The green sweet olives are my favorite though.

Grilled cheese sandwiches (not weird) eaten with home-canned peaches (not weird). But you dip the sandwich in the juice from the peaches, which is weird but delicious.

Toasted peanut butter and dill pickle sandwiches are a favorite. As is cottage cheese and Fritos.

Eggs, olives and mayo actually sounds pretty good. Kind of like eggs w creme fresh and a dollop of caviar in terms of the flavor profile

Yeah, I didn't mean olives or eggs seperatly, but all mashed together with miracle whip. I think it's normal too, but have had a lot of comments.

I was thinking tomato soup with the pasta sauce thing, gazpacho works too. Surely they can't be that different. It could be a pasta craving, I had really reduced my carbs when I was craving it so much. But I'd still be fine sitting down to drink a bottle, even with the pasta!

I crave peas a lot too. I just heat them up and eat them out of the bag.

I've had grilled cheese with apple, but never peaches. Seems like it could be good though. Still weird, though  Pickle and peanut butter- def weird! But I may have to try it...
My dad loves peanut butter, jelly, and velveeta cheese

I used to love yellow mustard, pickle and crouton sandwiches.

Green olives, eggs and mayo is a staple in my potato salad recipe. Soooo good.

Another weird and delicious grilled cheese thing is to put jam in with the cheese. So good!

people put cheese in their apple pies, so along those lines, i suppose?

[diablita]

There are tons of savory pastries from Latin America that include jam/fruit including tequeños with guyaba, pan con queso (bread with cheese) with guayaba and all sorts of other sweet fruit pastes.  And of course cheese plates are delicious with fig or other fruit jams.

Grilled watermelon pizza brushed with balsamic vinaigrette topped with blue cheese, rocket, and walnuts. Weird that it's grilled, even weirder to call it pizza for topping it with cheese and other stuff. But it's good!!

I made a salad today that was in the Food and Wine email... it was weird but good. Fresh cherries, cilantro, onions, white wine vinegar and fish sauce.

There's a Greek chain that used to have an egg and olive salad for sandwiches and stuff.  (Kind of like egg salad with olives and stuff in it.)  It was SO good.  But they don't have it anymore.
