    That's correct and I've had some of the stuff you've mentioned in Singapore.

    Here's my list of weird foods
    A few variety of snails
    jellyfish
    turtle
    rattlesnake
    armadillo
    chicken feet
    duck heads (I didn't like the bills so I just bit the tongues out of them)
    fish heads (the cheeks are the best part)
    swallows nest
    ants
    alligator
    oxtail
    durian (the smelly fruit. you're not allowed to bring them onto buses or trains in Singapore and I've had them fresh, in icecream and in cookies)
    stinky tofu (its fried moldy tofu)
    pickled marsh grass
    Gefelte fish

    As far as regular foods that I like to eat in an odd way I used to like Dunkin Donuts a lot particularly the filled lemon or apple ones but I always enjoyed them if they sat in the fridge for about a day and got a little bit stale. I also like eating fishsticks with Sambal Blecang (chilli paste with fermented shrimp paste)

    The one weird thing I still haven't had but have been curious about is Lutefisk (cod preserved in lye). Its a traditional Scandinavian favorite that some of the old folks used to eat in MN but I haven't been able to find any.

    I wouldn't say any of these are weird but just unusual:

    While going through elementary school all the way through high school, my lunch always consisted of a peanut butter and honey sandwich along with chips and cookies. I always got the impression that not many people had eaten those (they always favored peanut butter and jelly), but I thought they were good (obviously since I ate them for 12 years, lol).

    I also like from time to time put hot sauce on almost anything including potato chips. I also like using salsa with broiled chicken.

    Well now, that's just tasty.

    I like dipping goldfish (the little crackers) in ketchup. Sometimes I'll put goldfish in a bowl, squirt ketchup on top, and then stir them up and eat them with a spoon.

    Bananas wrapped with Kraft American cheese.

    So good. Most of the time I'll eat bananas like that.

    Yeah, I was just about to say this. I got to try some of this in Melaka last summer, very good stuff.

    In the same vein I thought overall Kuala Lumpur was one of the great (underappreciated) restaurant cities of Asia with the same variety as Singapore with lower prices.

    I couldn't resist. This is funny in so many ways...at least to me. Can't wait to hear the jokes.

    When I watched "Laverne and Shirly" growing up and Laverne drank milk and Pepsi, we didn't have Pepsi so I drank milk and Sugar-Free Dr. Pepper.......yummy.

    Once when I was a kid, I was at a friend's house and I ate one of his sister's birth control pills.

    I think it may have delayed the onset of puberty. It was like I took a gymnastics pill or something.

    Try Wendy's fries in your Frosty if you ever feel like slumming it.

    It's weird, but my sister and I are the only people that seem to like it. It's good to know that so many people here share my eclectic breakfast tastes, though. :)

    Oh yeah, anybody else put hot sauce on their popcorn? I love that little sizzle that it makes when it hits the popcorn...

    Yes! But I only do one small bowl at a time so I can eat all of it before it gets mushy.

    I put hot sauce on my popcorn. I have always wondered why don't popcorn companies capitalize on this and bring out a hot sauce flavored variety.
