I'll start: pesto as a bagel topping.

Lobsters and crabs are essentially overgrown bugs that live in water. At one point they were only fed to prisoners.

On the way coast of Canada, going to school with lobster in your lunch bag was something to be ashamed of.

Frozen corn.. Straight from the bag.

[–] treeantlers@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

Did this all the time as a kid. … And as an adult, sort of. I have a recipe for a chilled corn and edamame salad with a soy sauce/sesame dressing. I make it with frozen veggies and sometimes if I’m feeling impatient I’ll eat it without fully thawing them.

Octopus salad; it's a go to in our house since we are Mediterranean mutts - most people I tell (or who have seen me eat this) think its too gross to bear, lol.

I've been experimenting with hummus on stuff. My favorite do far was using it in place of salad dressing with some vinaigrette.

This is actually delicious, they sell a lunch item at my local supermarket which consists of salad greens, three (admittedly soggy) falafel, and a small pot of hummus. I love it- I mix the hummus with the greens, it makes an amazing dressing.

I will not-unhappily reheat and eat unrefrigerated two-day-old pizza. But I have the world's lowest standards for food.

One of my regular breakfast rotations is toast with creamcheese topped with either canned sardines or canned smoked oysters. Quick and tasty, but admittedly kinda weird.

My wife would say: Kipper Snacks

Stinky fish is delicious.

If I find a good bell pepper, I will eat it whole like an apple.

When I get a beverage/food garnished with an herb like a sprig of mint or rosemary, I like to nibble on them. My friends and girlfriend sort of lost their minds when I took a bit out of a cinnamon stick from a cocktail.

fish heads... they're just so much cheaper than the rest of the fish and delicious in the air fryer. also i'll eat the tails on shrimp.

i’ll eat the tails on shrimp.

I thought I was the only one. I've never met anyone else who does this, and everyone thinks I'm a freak when they see me do it.

Tahini as butter on a sandwich. It's delicious and goes with almost any sweet condiment!

I didn't even know the liquorice + chocolate combo was a thing, and was very irked by it when my Icelandic wife introduced me to it (it's a huge candy trope in Iceland).

I've gotten used to it now, though, and I even enjoy some variants.

Shrimp tails, especially on fried shrimp; the crunchy texture is great. Not strange but something that I usually get looks or comments about.

I've gotten my family used to it enough that they will give me the leftover tails from their plates at a restaurant.

Type of sushi called Uni (sea urchin)... more specific, it's gonads, although most people don't even know that piece of info. They just don't like the color, texture or taste.

To me it's more like a creamy raw oyster without the worry of biting a piece of shell.

Pizza with hollandaise sauce base instead of tomato sauce. My father almost disowned me for it.
