    Odd Food Combos

    Everybody has at least one one. Although I haven't done it in a long time, cottage cheese and baked beans are pretty good.

    I put mustard on my chili dog and it seems to eek people out until they try it. Pepper on cantaloupe is another one.

    Good lord, chili, slaw, and mustard is what hamburgers and hot dogs ARE in the south!

    I've been putting mustard on chili dogs since I was a kid. Seems fairly common here in Central Indiana.

    Split a banana. Make a sauce out of mayonnaise, maraschino cherry juice, and a bit of sugar; blend until its a soft pink. Spread over the split banana and top with shredded parmesan cheese. YUM!


    Crispy bacon, buttered toast and grape jelly. Best sandwich in the world!!!!

    Not that many here would eat the Lipton style chicken noodle soup, being gourmands, and all, but put some cinnamon in next time.

    Not really out there when it comes to odd combos... mixing Milk Duds and M&M peanuts and eating them together when I'm at the movie house is about as close as I come.

    I also like to take a tootsie roll midget, flatten it out and wrap it around a tootsie roll pop... but I don't call that an odd combo... that's just enhancing.

    I started eating chili dogs at the appropriately named "Hot Dog Stand" in my childhood hometown Watsonville, about halfway between Santa Cruz and Monterey, well over 50 years ago.

    Everything thing on them meant onions and mustard.

    Still does.

    I like the water the mountains and the fresh air so I can live with the "other reasons" LOL. I just wish the Portland race was still viable and for the record my roots are in the SE via my old man. Just looked at your location I was born in Charleston!

    OK so the TF ruling is mustard and chili good, I feel better about myself now.

    Agreed! Yesterday the wife was dipping her bacon in a raspberry/jalapeno jelly.

    Pepper on strawberries.

    Scotty's Brewhouse has a burger that features peanut butter as a condiment. That's pretty weird (but good).

    I sometimes sprinkle a little salt over my ice cream. It only takes a tiny bit, but it works wonders for chocolate ice cream.

    Other than that, I can't think of anything truly weird that I eat. I sometimes put hot sauce on my pizza. Does that count?

    You just reminded me of how bad it was if any of that rock salt water found it's way into Daddy's Homemade Ice Cream... so many moons ago.

    That's how my grandmother used to get us kids to eat cantaloupe. I still enjoy it that way.

    My weird thing is a BLT but instead of mayo, I want peanut butter on the bread.

    I also like crinkle cut french fries with brown gravy over them....mmm gravy fries.

    That peanut butter burger is not as odd as it might seem. I have seen this around various places for a number of years. First place was Rory's in San Diego, the forerunner of the Corvette Diner It's known as the Purvis up at the XXX in Lafayette. We used to do it every now and then at The Creekside Lodge in Crawfordsville. (still do on crazy buger Thursdays). I do it at home all the time. I believe tho it originated at The Big Top, Big Wheel something like that in Missouri back in the 60's. It is a mighty tasty burger.

    As a kid, I made and ate a Pepto Bismol and garlic sandwich. I don't recommend it.
    I do recommend a butter, tomato and red onion sandwich, though.

    So is it as simple as just putting peanut butter on the bun? Or is it actually mixed in the burger itself?
