I don't beleive her, Liz. She's just posting that to sit back and watch the shocked reactions.
Mmm, the ideal beverage with pizza is either Guinness or a great, micro brewed root beer. I like Virgil's, but it's too expensive for the kids so we wait until cases of Red Sky go on sale.

My father likes to pour milk over his popcorn and eat it with a spoon, like breakfast cereal.
Hey, would you like to have the taste of vomit in your mouth without having to go through the trouble of actually vomiting? Here's what you do: take some chocolate, and eat it. Then, take a big ol' swig of orange juice. Instant bile flavor, without the nasty mess.

Verily the Younger, Orange juice can, indeed, make some nasty tastes. I don;t know if any of you are old enough, but certain combos with orange juice take me back to the baby aspirin of my youth, which was orange flavored, and would always semi-dissolve in my mouth before it was swallowed. (shudder)

I like guacamole on Triscuits. Dunno if that's weird.
When eating spaghetti with red sauce (Edit: is spaghetti "with red sauce" redundant? Is spaghetti not considered spaghetti if it's a different color? All the weird italian names confuse the bejeezus outta me.), make sure to add some Ranch dressing on top of that. I discovered this combination one day when I decided I'd had enough of trying to scrape the last remaining noodles and sauce off my plate and instead used a big bowl. However, we were watching a movie in the livingroom while eating dinner, and part of dinner was salad. I didn't want to get up later in the movie to get the salad, but I also didn't want an additional plate to juggle while sitting on the couch. What to do? I ended up making my salad on top of the bowl of spaghetti and eating my way down. The Ranch dressing oozed down and mixed with the spaghetti to form a groovy new sauce, which also tastes good on bread.
Which brings me to another point: the spork (alternately referred to as the foon) is the greatest food utensil ever. They should make metal ones so I don't have to steal 'em from Taco Bell, which carry the sturdiest sporks 'round these parts. The spikes at the business end of the foon are perfect for noodle-twirling, and the curved rim and spoon-like shape make it ideal for getting the last bits of food out of the bowl. Awyeah.

Speaking of sporks, we had two exchange students in our marching band when we took a trip to Disney World, one from Japan and one from Sweden. At dinner one night, the girl from Sweden, holding a spork, ran over to the Japanese girl and asked if she'd ever seen one before. She hadn't. The two of them got such a kick out it. "Spoon, fork, SPORK!"

The Meyers lemon is a cross between a lemon and a certain type of tangerine. They're small, round, thin-skinned, sweeter, never bitter, and wonderful. I occasionally find them mixed in with the other lemons at the store here, and rejoice.

As a kid, I loved spagetti and meat sauce over a green salad with Italian dressing instead of spaghetti. Then I would eat the spaghetti with butter and salt.

Elizabeth, I'd think that would be good; that's part of what you put in an Orange Julius, after all.

I eat dill pickle and peanut butter sandwiches. I also have random salad, which means I grab whatever i can find and put it on the salad, just as long as i have some thing sweet, something salty, and something crunchy. usually involves some kind of cheese, but in my house, that's not hard to find.
at the moment i'm eating dried cherries and salted peanuts.

Oooh, I bet my pickle loving boy would love a peanut butter and pickle sandwich.
None of the peanut butter combos shock me, because we buy the unsweetened, natural kind. Peanuts are used in cooking in all sorts of ways, especially in Asian and African dishes.
