confess your food crimes v.1

[sealskull]

i mean logically it goes together, salty, crunchy, sweet and creamy are all good together! id give it a try.

white rice, with sour cream and cheese. sometimes crushed up tortilla chips if im feelin fancy.

really weird but I’ve done weirder stuff with rice so I can’t say it’s a crime. Would try it because I’m more and more intrigued the more I think about it

when I was little I used to dip my carrots in ketchup because I thought it was something sans from undertale would do. I was a weird little kid.

Honestly, that's pretty weird and warrants an eyebrow raise. But I can't judge much either cause my brother used to do the exact same thing, not cause he thought Sans would do it, but just because he liked ketchup THAT much.

I pour both milk and water into my hot chocolate.

eh, that doesnt feel that weird to me lol.

i've dipped my pizza into honey mustard. also my bagels, and my toast, and many other things. or, i sometimes dip them in ceaser dressing.

I was a college student at the time, with little food in the house and even less motivation (or ability!) to go out and restock. However, there were a few assorted staples I had access to. So, I figured, I may as well see if I can assemble them into some semblance of a meal.

The thoughts in my head at the time were, as far as I can tell, as follows:

- Grilled cheese sandwiches are easy to make.
- Pad thai has a fun combination of flavors, combining peanuts with spice in a way not often seen in American cuisine.
- Despite the fact that they are not usually thought of as compatible, I have in the past combined peanut butter and certain kinds of cheese with unexpected success.

So, of course, I made the Disturbingly Bootleg Pad Thai Pannini by adding sriracha and peanut butter to an otherwise perfectly normal grilled cheese sandwich.

Honestly, it wasn't half bad. Usually, whenever I tell this story (this has happened in a number of discord chats), someone decides to try it for themself and later responds that it was surprisingly good. Nevertheless, its origin and its offputting ingredients list solidly cements it as dubious at best.

Honestly I admire your creativity and bravery, however I can’t say I’m willing to follow in the footsteps of the brave soldiers who attempted it after hearing the story 😭😭

I LOVE ketchup & ranch (mixed together) on Mac and cheese. Especially if it’s the like 36¢ boxed kind from a random gas station

Another time, several years after the pad thai grilled cheese incident, I was at a potluck where someone had made a pizza with a balsamic glaze on it. The pizza was reasonably good, but I found the glaze to be overwhelmingly sweet. So, of course, when vanilla ice cream was served after dinner, I put some of this same balsamic glaze on it and found that this combination tasted excellent.

However, another person also saw the bottle of viscous brown liquid next to the ice cream, made some incorrect assumptions, and then told me he thought that the chocolate syrup must have expired.

an corrosive and dubious concoction known as takis mashed taters

[oh heck]

i'd eat potatoes with anything so it's not a food crime in my eyes. i'd be willing to try it too :d

i love dipping pancakes in ketchup

[brundlefly]

hot sauce tastes amazing on mac and cheese to me
