Toast a cinnimmon raisin bagal and put the butter, honey and peanut butter on it. YYYYEEEEOOOOWWWW! SMOKIN!! Or, dip a nice crispy apple into a peanutbutter/honey mix. That is better than a snickers for quick pick me up.
I love the story about your grandpa smashing the angelfood cake into a ball and eating it! It just tastes better that way. Instead of air you get all cake. Cake is GOOD!! :D

Ive yet to experience the vegemite... I had met a girl online that lives in Australia... we still talk to this day... and at least once a month, I have to remind her to mail me some vegemite! This has been going on for well over a year now lol. I suppose I will have to just fly to autralia myself

... its just the flight back (flight 815) that scares me lol

Wow this thread grew fast and it only shows how weird the people here are. If you want class try a mustard and union sandwich with lettuce... yummy

Beautiful creamy white herring livers - fresh from the fish - rinsed in water and swallowed whole. The squeamish ones can dip them in seasoned flour and quick fry them. :D

[J_9]

No fish eggs for this gal. I only use them to catch other fish!

EEEWWWW!!

I agree with you whole heartedly Val.

[valinors_sorrow]

Jonegy agrees: caviar is only fish eggs and I bet you'd eat that :-p

I have to say it did look elegant, the black shiney goo poured over a slab of white cream cheese surrounded by nice bits of toasted crackers at the soirée my mom was throwing (boy could she "do" a party!) but one brave sampling was all I needed to cross yet another life experience off my to-do list! LOL

(Peeping from under the covers)

Could this be it? Is it over? Has it stopped? BBRRPPP!

[magprob]

BUUURRRPPP!! Nope, it isn't over till the fat lady sings. Yogurt, any flavor, with wheat germ mixed in. I don't know what it is but one tub of yogurt and as much wheat germ as you can pile in mixed up real nice just fills me up fast and tastes great!

Man.

I need to drink more wine tonight before I read anymore.

Here's one that was inspired by indulgence in cohol.

My italian father in law came home one night with friends after drinking some italian liquer that tastes like licorice. Basically, anytime they open a bottle of this stuff you'd better have bail money cause the bottle get polished off and the boys get rowdy.

Anyway, he, being a bachelor, looked in his barren fridge and saw italian salami, cream cheese, and tabasco. He put them together and they are now a staple at all family holiday gatherings. You warm the cream cheese or beat it in a mixer, then add tabasco until it has enough kick... it always takes more than you think. Then spread the mix on one side of the salami and roll it into a tube and cut in half. Refrigerate if not eating immediately.

This requires good italian salami... one that doesn't taste like pork. And its better if you can get it cut thinly.. you want a little bite, but not too thick.

This appetizer is absolutely demanded at major family gatherings and it is pretty awesome for being only three ingredients, a half hour prep, and inspired by a late night buzz.

Must have been Sambuca or Anisette. I loved it when my Italian hockey-player boyfriend's mother served it. It was clear until mixed with water and then became cloudy. Yum!

I know a similar hor d'oeuvre my mom made of worcestershire sauce flavoured cream cheese rolled into thinly sliced chipped beef and secured with a fancy toothpick. Very popular. I shall have to try the hot sauce and salami trick or face relinquishing my title, I should think? :p

[kp2171]

ill have to ask my wife if its sambuca... the name rings familiar, but the color seems off... I thought the boys drank a darker version but id only had it once and I might be mistaken. Galliano is another anise flavored drink but I don't think that was it.

like I said with the salimi roll ups, you're looking for a more garlicky and spiced flavored salami if possible, instead of a one that tastes more like pork. We gets ours in a local italian deli and its simply called moist salami. I don't know what ill do to please my girls if we ever move and I can't find a substitute. Well... yeah, I know what ill do... like when her father moved, ill have to have it less often and have people bring it with them when they visit. =)

Could it be Uzo?

I LOVE SALAMI AND CREAM CHEESE, and can't ber president of the hot sauce of the month club without trying this one!!

Thanks KP

[valinors_sorrow]

Yesssssssss... UZO! Very cool stuff! Thanks kid!

[J_9]

Uzo and then light it on fire!

[Curlyben]

KP that sounds like Sambuca Nero.

J_9 it's Sambuca you like on fire with an odd number of coffee beans in it, not Uzo. That stuff is just EviL

[J_9]

Ok, thanks for clearing that up. You are so right about the coffee beans. My hubby usually orders for me, so I was not sure.

[J_9]

How about dipping bread in Kool-aid? Or does that belong in the weird drinks category?

Ranch dressing on hot dogs?

[Curlyben]

Bread in Kool Aid, hmm I suppose it depends on what flavour it is ;)
