Oatmeal with little balls of white bread, sugar, canned milk and butter. I take a slice of white bread, rip it of in pieces and roll them into hard balls and put them into the oatmeal along with the sugar,milk, and butter.

I don't know if any of these qualify as weird, but these were my top three after-school snacks when I was school age (ahem) a few years ago.

1. Vanilla ice cream with Hershey's syrup poured over it and a Mother's sugar cookie crumbled up on top of it. Then I stirred it all around until the mixture was all gooey and creamy and ate it. Yummy.

2. Salami sandwich made thus - Hebrew National salami on white bread, spread generously with Best Food's mayonnaise (Hellman's east of the Rockies).

3. Remember those individually wrapped slices of American cheese? I would take two of those, and get a glass of orange juice. I would then take a piece of cheese, dunk it in the orange juice, then eat the cheese and sip the glass of juice. It didn't matter to me that the cheese didn't absorb any orange juice. I dunked it anyway.

OK, the cheese and orange juice thing was weird.

Weiner, I'm with you on all but the cheese and OJ thing. Your numbers 1 and 2 are still 2 of my favorite snacks. :)

Ok, I read someone liked potato chips with cottage cheese. One of my all time favorite things (and I'll admit it has grossed everyone out from family to hubby) is to put drained tuna fish into cottage cheese, stir it all up and eat it with potato chips. Yum! Haven't had it in years, but may have to go to the store tomorrow and get some cottage cheese!

oh and that peppermint stick in the pickle thing.... how did you even think to try that to find out if it was good??? I can't imagine what would lead to that decision! LOL

Sia, the diet pepsi twist is much better than diet coke with lemon IMHO. But nothing can beat using real lemon wedges squeezed into the drink.

Cheez Whiz and relish on a hamburger bun that has been buttered and toasted on a grill.

Yum, yum, yum!

Hot fried potato sandwiches. Slice potatoes very thin longways. Fry in hot grease. Place on bread with mustard and Miracle Whip, onions, and pickles. cheese optional. Yum, yum.

Apples with peanut butter is a staple in our house! (especially with 2/3 kids being vegetarians) Makes me LOL that it is here in the weird thread!

Sweetbabygirl - if there was an award for the weirdest thing it'd have to be the unusual way you like your potato chips!

NO ONE in my family lets me forget it, and I'm damned near 40!!

Just thought of this. And speaking of potato chips.

Ruffles potato chips and cold(like out of the fridge cold-not room temp) Tostitos brand queso. Ay Carumba, that's yummy!

Since we're on the subject on potatoes, here's another quirk of mine....I love, love, LOVE French's Instant Mashed Potatoes.

I'm not one for homemade mp's, mainly because the ones that I have eaten were creamy....I like my 'taters EXTREMELY STIFF (heh-heh, I said stiff!). I'm talkin' you need both hands to put a serving on your plate stiff (heh-heh, I said stiff again!).

In fact, I just had some....for breakfast!

LOL just reminded me of when I used to eat the INSIDE of toast...leaving the top and bottom

it's good - I'd pick out all of the inside of the toast, and then let the thin outside parts melt in my mouth. I loved the texture of the toast once you've picked out the inside, on the roof of the mouth. Heck I am sure I'd still love it just had forgotten about it. Off to make some toast :)

i love what my mom called humpty dumpty eggs and i call a witch's eye
take a piece of bread and toast it. then take a glass or round cookie cutter and remove a large circle from the middle of the toast. get your frying pan ready and put the outer toast 'frame' in it. make your fried egg in the hole of the toast. it will flip over and everything if you like it over easy or medium. then you cut it up and eat it and use your little round toast to dip in the egg yolk.

Tabby - My dad was famous for making that! He called his "Eggs In The Middle" and it was sooooooo yummy. I think some restaurants make it too, "Eggs In a Basket" or something like that. Some versions are ok, but their's will never be as good as my Dad's. Hmmm...I wonder if he's up to cooking breakfast this morning?!?

I like those clumps in overcooked Cream of Wheat.

Whit4you - I did that too!!!!! I loved it! I used to tear the inside out, then flatten it and eat it the bread like that! Wow-I forgot about that!!!

Mmmmmmmm, lumpy Cream of Wheat! I like mine with tons of butter, sugar and canned milk....same thing for oatmeal.

When I was a child my neighbor would fill a bowl with popped popcorn and pour milk over it and eat it like cereal. I tried it once--that was enough for me.

Bandit - It's fun how anytime I mention something here that I figure is probably too strange to have people say 'me too!" too - someone always ends up relating (even the smell of gas thing - can't believe how many of us liked that as kids)

Here's one that I kinda doubt anyone else did .. but um it's really good - try it :)

I used to cut my three muskateers in half.. then I'd eat all the chocolate off the half I was eating... then I'd squish the insides back and forth back and fotrh a dozen or two times then eat it .. it's much better that way (though your fingers do get a tad messy ..lol)

I did the same thing with marshmellows too - smash them a few dozen times before eating them - this is really good... as well :)

Amd while not nearly as often as the 'inner toast' thingy... I did often like to smash my bread before eating it...for very different reasons than the musketters and marshmellows... but still good :)

Okay, just tried this for the first time yesterday....

I had some leftover Cream Of Wheat and went to microwave it....however, I discovered that I ran out of canned milk. Sooooooooo, there was some vanilla ice cream in the freezer.

I warmed up the cereal and put a few tablespoons of the ice cream on top....well, it IS milk after all, lol!

It had a vanillaesque taste to it, yummy!

This is a fun thread! My sister and I used to take the insides out of white bread and roll it up and dip it in hot chocolate.

Don't know how weird this is but I love molasses on white toast with butter.

And as for cottage cheese, I like mine with French dressing and croutons, which seems to gross everyone out! lol

And my husband loves lumpy Cream of Wheat. He has tried to teach me the art of lumpy C of W to no avail, he's stuck with making it himself.

When we used to go visit our relatives in southern Illinois my aunt would have a whipped cottage cheese--kind of the consistancy of a thick sour cream. It was wonderful but we never found anything like it back home in TX. My sister tried putting regular cottage cheese in the blender and it works pretty well. I love putting a big spoonful into a bowl of tomato soup, then stir it around until it marbelizes--yummy!!!

My nieces used to call it college cheese--they thought it would make you smarter, lol :)

When we were kids we ate a lot of toast dipped in hot chocolate. We ate bread spread with butter and covered with Karo syrup or sprinkled with sugar (this sounds so disgusting to me now, but I loved it then). We ate bread spread with cottage cheese and applebutter and noodles on top of mashed potatoes. (Can you tell I grew up in Pennsylvania Dutch country?) And one of our favorite desserts was hot corn bread covered with maple syrup. I could never survive on a no-carb diet!!!
