    This can be weird food combinations, things most people would not even think about eating, or just plain bad food to most people.

    I've eaten hotdogs and eggs mixed in. I was too poor to afford sausage, so hotdogs became my morning meat source.

    Peanut butter and mayo sandwich. Surprising the mayo keeps the peanut butter from sticking to the roof of your mouth.

    1/2 dozen raw eggs after watching Rocky.

    A box of frozen pizza rolls - still frozen. I was too lazy and hungry to wait 2 minutes for the microwave to heat them up. You can really taste the box when they are still frozen.

    I don't know if it's weird, but I eat peanut butter and cottage cheese mixed together.

    I watched a friend of mine eat an entire container of cherry lime sherbert mixed with a can of tuna.

    Eggs scrambled with hot dogs is not weird, mexicans do that all the time. I did it in college, it's good.

    Now mayo and pb, that is f'd up.

    Most people fry sausage, but we boil the links. Also, I drink milk with everything.

    I'm always eating weird food combinations. I don't think about how different foods will go together, just about how good they are by themselves. So if I look in the pantry and decide that I would enjoy eating pop-tarts and a bowl of spinach, I have no problem heating them up and eating them in the same meal.

    I'd hate to declare a winner on the first post, but you and your friend are the leaders. Tuna an cherry lime sherbert? I can't imagine the taste or circumstance that would bring that together.

    Try El Tiempo's quail. It's very good.

    My father was an avid hunter, I grew up on pheasant, quail, and duck.

    I made the mistake of going to an authentic Chinese/Malaysian restaurant in NYC with a Chinese co-worker and telling him that I'd eat anything he'd eat.

    The fried pork intestines were surprisingly good. The crispy spicy squid however, was NOT the calamari I'm accustomed to. Imagine going fishing in the heat of the summer, hauling in a net of squid and throwing them on the deck of the boat to dry out in the sun......and to develop their own special funk. Then coat them with some cloyingly sweet sauce to mask their rotten-ness, and throw them on a plate. Voila! Crispy spicy squid. They weren't exactly crispy, and they sure as heck weren't spicy. But they were definitely squid.

    The pineapple, tomato, and fish head soup tasted like vinegar and corn syrup......and old fish. Apparantly I was the lucky one because I got the fish eyeball. I had no idea it would have something cruncy in the middle....kind of like a cherry pit. The soup had several flavors that just didn't mix with each other, but when all of them were mixed together........well......it was just horrible. Some of the other dishes were fairly decent though, and it definitely made for some memories.

    I've been to very authentic Chinese restaurants in Vancouver and San Fran though, and I'm a very adventurous orderer. I've never had anything I couldn't stomach, and most of the stuff I ordered I'd love to have again. This leads me to believe that the co-worker was tyring to make me squirm.


    As for weird, I like to take white bread, top it with american cheese, and then top the cheese slice with five or six small green salad olives. I pop that into the broiler and cook it until the cheese bubbles up and almost turns black. Weird, but I love it.

    I also love to drop cheetos into cambell's cream of chicken soup.....just a few at a time and eat them while they are still cruncy.....before dropping in the next few.

    I've also had all though stuff on Bucks list except for the ants and the goat fries.....but I have had turkey fries and LOTS of 'em. We used to serve them at a place I worked at in college, and I had 'em darn near every week for years.

    As far as sushi, the only thing I'll probably never order again is Uni.

    And the quail at El tiempo are very good.

    Totally un PC, but I get weak in the knees for seared Foie Gras.
