I’ll start: pesto as a bagel topping.

    Shredded cheese crisped up in a skillet.

    According to my ex, who politely asked me to stop doing that, it makes the entire house smell like particularly foul body odor.

    My partner thinks it’s disgusting and my biggest red flag: I make peanut butter sandwiches on white bread and dip them in ranch dressing 😩 the reason I do this is because of growing up a millennial in NKY where a weekly lunch option was a bowl of chili, served with a peanut butter sandwich, and carrot sticks w a side of ranch….I hate raw carrots, always have lmao but I love all the other items….one day I was staring at the sad unused ranch and thinking as I was already keen to dipping the PB sandwich in the chili, that maybe it would be as good as the PB in chili so I tried it and I’ve just done it and liked a PB sandwich dipped in ranch ever since 😓 my partner has even tried it for me and hated it 🤷🏼‍♀️ at least they loved me enough to try it 🥹

      This sounds like the bean base for a taco pizza. Not sure how wide spread it is, but where i am from in the Midwest it is pretty popular. Pizza Hut has a Taco Bean and a Taco Beef Pizza. Add cheddar cheese, pop it in the oven, after it’s done baking, add lettuce, more cheddar cheese, tomatoes, chushed up Doritos, and some sour cream. So good.

        That hadn’t occurred to me, but dipping pizza crust (and pizza) in garlic butter sauce isn’t unusual. Hollandaise is just a lemon butter sauce. Sounds good to me.

      I had leftover taco stuff and made a black bean and corn pizza. Beans pair well with it.

      As a topping? I’ve done this and agree, but it’s important to get the bean dip spread evenly on the crust.

    I eat prunes daily. some people think it’s a laxative for old people. sure, there’s fiber in them and fiber helps you stay regular but just the same as eating most fruit. prunes are just dried plums and they’re delicious

      It’s not only the fibre in prunes that helps your digestion – the ‘sorbitol’ also acts as a laxative.

      Prunes are sorely under-appreciated in my opinion! I don’t eat them often, but my family has a tradition of making prune pierogi sautéed in an onion butter sauce for special occasions and it is an absolute sweet-savory delight. I look forward to them all year.

    A more general answer: Meals without meat.

    For some reason this really confuses people, and often makes them concerned or upset.

    I some time thaw frozen dumplings in the fridge, and then eat them cold on hot days.

    Brewed tea leaves, think they’re the best part. There’s a good number that are terrible (the cheap CTC blacks especially) but think most green teas and floral oolongs are great.

    Weird to brew a cup of tea and then eat the leaves but there’s also some legit recipes with tea leaves. Burmese tea leaf salad and longjing shrimp are two. There’s also matcha.

    My favourite pizza topping is pepperoni and flaked tuna, the good stuff too so it’s meaty oily tuna.

    Love it but so many people think I’m odd for it. The meaty flavours compliment each other!!!

      I’m not even sure I need to read the rest of the thread after this comment. You win by default! I guess it makes as much sense as anchovies on pizza though.

    My friend recommended eating kiwis with the skin on. It takes a second to get used to the fuzzy skin, but they are SOOOO much easier to eat! Plus you get some extra fiber ;)

      I love the pop texture of with them skin on. And it is gives a nice bitter light note to the sweet fruit.
