Weird food combinations you eat

Since when is peanut butter on celery weird? That's a basic picnic finger food where I come from. Add a single line of raisins down the peanut butter and you have Ants on a Log.

And since when is ham-and-pineapple Hawaiian pizza news to anyone? Some of wolf's coworkers sound very behind the times.

Some people love this, others blanch. I've mentioned it before: grilled cheese sandwich with peanut butter, plus any sweet green relish. Dill pickle relish for those who prefer it tart.

It ain't no stranger'n Mango Salsa... which might go well in the above augmented cheese sandwich, in place of the green relish.

Hardly strange at all is eggs fried together with a little shredded-up pastrami.

C'mon, Urbane. Take a look at her dateline and then yours. That's the difference. I've always lived East Coast. Hawaiian pizza is not on every pizza menu. The only time I tried it was in London. I prefer my double anchovy, extra garlic, pass me the olive oil New York style.

The name escapes me, but that essential Canuck dish with the fries, curd and brown gravy is actually pretty good. hmmm, poteen? While it may be French Canadien in origin, I've had it in the Western Provinces, too. Sounds gross to most of us south of that border, though.

This may be a south Jersey thing, but I love old fashioned tomato preserves or jelly or jam folded into an omelet.

I prefer another old fashioned condiment with my scrambled eggs: chile sauce. It has a different flavor than salsa, although I'd use either.

How about beer in your margarita? A craft list some years back had a thread on the best margarita recipes, and some chica recommended that. When I rarely make margaritas, I'm likely to put a lager in the pitcher.
