  • what did you eat "weird" as a child?

    ok - so i don't know why, but I just thought of a sandwich I used to eat as a child. my father had me HOOKED on peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches (white bread, of course - lol)

    Now I know this sounds absolutely disgusting and I'm not sure I'd do it now as an adult - but I used to LOVE them (course, could be the reason why i was a fat kid! haha)

    anyone else eat anything "weird"?

    Oh my gosh, well sadly, my "weird" eating habits are not uncharacteristic of kids today! Listen to this one:

    At lunch at my high school I remember going at least a full school year eating this each day:

    White bagel with butter (Sugar and fat, bad combo)
    French fries with BBQ (Sugar and fat, bad combo)
    Chocolate covered granola bar(Sugar, hold the fat)
    One of those little debbie brownie disasters (Sugar and preservatives)

    That was my nutritious lunch. As soon as I got home, I drank tons of soda and ate from a giant bag of chips in front of the TV! No wonder I'm here working to get that weight off- much harder to remove than it was to put on

    50 sit-ups/day
    30 squats/day
    25 push-ups/day
    100oz water/day

      This is soooooo gonna gross you out. I remember when I was 7 or 8 years old and I wanted a banana drink. I would smoosh up the banana bites in my mouth and spit them into a glass and when I had enough banana/spit pulp, I'd drink it like it was a banana shake!! EEEEWWWWWWWW! Aren't you glad you asked?!

                  haha keriann i used to be obsessed with marshmellow fluff. mostly because i wasnt allowed to have it. it was only in the house around thanksgiving so i'd sneak into the kitchen and get a spoon of it around that time of year.

                  i also went through a phase where i ate nothing but ramen noodles for like a year. then i remember eating nothing but oranges for 2 weeks. i was always a little ocd that way, i found something i liked then ate it till i hated it.

                      Re: what did you eat "weird" as a child?

                      when I was in college it was the first time I'd been away from home and my dear mother never taught me to cook (ok -- she taught me to make grilled cheese and tomato soup or tuna salad sandwiches and chicken noodle soup -- honestly that's what she sent me out into the world knowning how to cook!!) BUT I DIGRESS.... I do that a lot!!

                      In college my breakfast every morning was a fried hash brown pattie, I'd warm up a can of beenie weenie's and put them on top of the hash browns -- then I would put ketchup on top of the whole thing - also a Schlitz tall boy beer and I was ready for the day. How gross! It looked like road kill on a plate.

                        French fries dipped in mayo (my 16 y/o stepdaughter does this as well)

                        Raw potato slices

                        apples slices with salt

                        I used to love to take really fresh white sliced bread, pull off the crust then roll it up into a tight ball (it would become like dough) and eat that.

                        Playdoh

                        My favourite food of all time to this day (i miss it terribly!) is kraft dinner with tonnes of ketchup mixed in.

                          Ha! This reminded me - my Dad worked the night shift during college and said that, since he had a morning class, he and his fraternity brother would drive through Jack in the Box in the morning, order a dozen tacos each and split a six pack of Budweiser. And then go to class!



                          The strangest thing I ever ate is my Mom's fault. She used to make us toast with peanut butter and bacon bits.
                          My brother and I used to stir Hershey's syrup into water and call it "magic"
                          I like my milk raw, my eggs pastured and my beef grass-fed.

                              My gran would cut the crust off bread, put butter, cinnamon and sugar on it and roll it into little "pinwheels" and tell us she made up cinnamon rolls....I didn't realize they weren't real for years...LOL!!!

                              Oh - and the mayo & french fries thing....I had never seen that until I lived in Western NY -- when you ordered fries they gave you vinegar and mayo to go along with it.
