When I was about 7 or 8, my Mom made boiled Pigs' Feet which had been
seasoned with vinegar. After dinner, I decided that I wanted to have
S'mores. BIG MISTAKE! My Mom let me write the absence note to my
teacher because I was too sick to go to school the next day. I told
my teacher the truth -- that I got sick from eating marshmallows and
pigs' feet. It was a long time before I would eat pigs' feet again.
Now I love 'em.
You would think that I had learned my lesson, but I did it again at 30
years old. I had some leftover garlic pizza from Round Table and a
diet chocolate soda. I don't know what I was thinking! I was sick as
a dog. Now, I can't even stand the THOUGHT of garlic pizza without
getting nauseous.

When I was a kid we made eggnog at home pretty often.
One day I beat up the egg, looked for sugar, found only
some brown suger. Oh, well, that'll be even better.
Added the vanilla, looked for milk. Uh-Oh. No milk.
Only buttermilk. Hmmm. Not good. Maybe it'll be OK...
Wrong! Way wrong. One sip and I almost hurled.

Rodney lunch - a mouth full of dry Chinese noodles, topped off with
a huge splatt of Reddi Whip in the can. T'wasn't too long after

A local radio announcer mentioned on the air that one of the crazy
things he did as a kid was to get a dill pickle (from a barrel), stick
a peppermint cane in eat, and eat it. His female co-anchor said
"Yech". He said "Don't knock it until you try it." So one day, she
worked up the courage to try it on the air. She nearly gagged! I
think that would have been reaction, also. I've always wondered since
then if he really did eat that combination, or if he pulled off one of
the greatest jokes of all time.

Back in Jr. High School, I was sitting in the back of French

to eat our lunches so we wouldn't waste our lunch period
eating. She offered me half of her cream cheese and green
olive sandwich. Never having eaten an olive, I thought I'd
give it a shot. Yechhhhhhhhh. I didn't eat another olive
for more than 10 years. It took me another 15 before I
developed a taste for green olives. Love 'em now, but I
don't think I could try another cream cheese and green olive
sandwich.

People always look at me funny when I put mayo on both hot dogs and

: Aw, c'mon Squeaks! Open your mind. Beer and chocolate is a great
: combo. Cold and sour and sweet and creamy all at once!
Beer and chocolate can be an excellent combination. A dark chocolate
with Guiness Stout, for example. Or chocolate with a cherry lambic
(kriek). I once attended a beer/chocolate tasting which was quite good.
...now, as for a bad food idea...
When I was just a lad, and hanging out with my mates, I developed an
incredible case of the munchies (for reasons which are not about to become
clear). In any case, I *really* needed to have a bowl of cearal with
milk. Going through the cupboards at my friend's house I found a box of
Cap'n Crunch cereal. Excellent! Unfortunately, they didn't have any
milk. I couldn't believe it -- have you seen those "Got Milk?"
commercials, because it was just like that! I was desperate, and so when
I happened upon some Swiss Miss cocoa mix, well... let's just say that it
seemed like a good idea at the time. The logic ran something like this:
Swiss Miss = cocoa, cocoa = chocolate milk, therefore Swiss Miss = milk.
Yes! I would *make* milk by using the Swiss Miss. Of course, Swiss Miss
is really just cocoa-flavored water, and water is *not* a recommended foil
for Cap'n Crunch.
Just Don't Do It!

Good question; my son tried bologna and French dressing the other day and my
picky-eater granddaughter said it was pretty good.
The sell a commercial spread of cream cheese and olives, so it can't be too

Give it another chance, with good wine and cheese, cautiously.
Apples make wine taste bad, cheese helps it so much, that there's
a French proverb among wine makers: "Buy on apples, sell on cheese."

Water may not work, but lemonade sure does! When I was growing up my
mom never allowed us to eat "junk" cereal, but at Xmas Santa would give
us each a box of Cap'n Crunch in our stockings as a treat. One Boxing
Day morn I awoke, eagerly anticipating my bowl of Cap'n Crunch, only to
discover that we'd run out of milk. The only liquid I could find was
lemonade, so that's what I used. It was great! The sour lemonade
kinda counteracted the sickening sweetness of the cereal! Try it!

Generally I have little or no use for canned olives, or for those

do love a green olive and cream cheese sandwich.
I never had one until the age of...well, somewhere in my 20s. A friend
took me to Drake's Sandwich shop- certainly one of the oddest places in the
Universe- in Ann Arbor for lunch, and this was one of the things she ordered.
I've been a fan ever since.

When I was a child, I loved blueberries and I loved chocolate cream pie. I
got it in my head that the combination would therefore be awesome. I
fantasized about "chocoberry" pie. (And I didn't just want the berries on
top of the pie; no, I wanted them embedded.) I bugged my mom for months to
make one - her response was always, "Yuck. You won't like it. It will be
a waste." I continued to pester and plead, so finally, to shut me up, she
relented. With her watching, I eagerly sat down to savor a slice. With
great anticipation I shoveled in the first forkful - and it was HORRIBLE.
But no way could I admit that I was wrong after months of begging, so I ate
the whole piece. I had to smuggle the rest of the pie out to the bushes,
piece by piece.

Peanut butter, mayo and crisp iceberg lettuce is very tasty. (Be sure to
sprinkle some salt on the lettuce.)
Lettuce sprinkled with cider vinegar and a light dusting of regular sugar is
very good for a salad.

You're right, bologna needs mayo (and maybe a slice of tomato). Unless it's garlic
bologna, MMMM, in which case you could just as easily use dijonnaise, plain old
mustard, or even butter.
Lebanon Bologna is a whole different thing, though. Around here (PA Dutch Country)
the best way to eat a "leb'nin baloney samwich" is on white bread spread with butter
and a pile of potato chips on top of the balogna (which are crushed down when applying
the top slice of bread.)
Mayonnaise is also good on hot dogs, but you must glob it on, or you won't tast it.
But best of all, mayonnaise is terrific on french fries. I picked that trick up in
Germany years ago and still love it.
While I'm at it, here's one I stumbled onto recently. If you like fried egg
sandwhiches, next time spread the bread with Reeses peanut butter. It tastes much
better than it sounds. I tried it on toast and it wasn't as good.

I love chocolate and tea, especially good quality chocolate. I
thought it was weird when I saw my sister dunking her chocolate into a
cup of tea but she said it was tasty so I tried it. Yummy. My

As for raisins, a friend of mine hates raisins except in muesli bread.

I used to like very light, fluffy omelettes. Perhaps just because
they were weird and somewhat challenging to make. Now I prefer
solid or slightly soft scrambled eggs, with lots of flavorful
inclusions, like chopped peppers, dill seed, and so on.
But if someone likes fluffy eggs, wouldn't baking powder be
a neat trick? Leaves some salt in, which most people do anyway.
For pie dough, I use Linda Magee's "Never Fail" recipe that
calls for vinegar, ice water, and an egg. I always beat this
mixture before dribbling it into the cut-up pastry dough.
It's very foamy, and helps to disperse the moisture, I think.

You're not kidding! I'm sitting in a cube jungle, hoping no one will
figure out where all the giggles are coming from...

A 3 year old insisted on this combination today - catsup on fresh orange -
tasted it and came up with the proper conclusion - "yuck". LOL
Nothing beats the taste of McDonalds French Fries and a Chocolate Shake.
We never ate out when I was a child -- and when we did, it was when we
were traveling from Illinois to Ohio to visit my grandma. The taste of
fries and a chocolate shake takes me back to those long road trips.

My 3-year old nephews, who were raised on a combination of home cooking
and take-out food from mideast and Thai restaurants, went through a
phase in which they insisted on having "sauce" on almost everything.
It could be almost anything liquid; really, more a conceptual thing than
something mediated by taste buds. I thought about contacting the people
who made Gravy Train dog food with an idea I had for marketing kid food.
They've gotten more particular lately, but the appearance of a new
condiment on the table still calls for massive experiemntation.

My Mother just told me today that we had this Great-Aunt that would
put pepper on her strawberries. I had this friend at school that would put
mustard on her french fries.

That's nothing! On the east coast, they put VINEGAR on their french
fries! (Shuddering in horror and revulsion)

I used to eat butter and sardine sandwiches :-).
Peanut butter and catsup don't pair well with me :-). But the
kid would probably love it :-).

I LOVE malt vinegar on fries better than ketchup any day. One of the few
tricks I learned while working my way through college.
