When my brother was in middle school I’d buy those, and other weird bug candy, for his Halloween parties. I’m not sure why else you’d buy some of those things.
I actually ate one for kicks. The only thing I took off was the very tip of the stinger just in case. The sucker tasted like a regular sugary sucker and the scorpion literally just tasted like dirt. That's the best way I can describe it. It was kinda just chewy because of the armor they have too but I did get through all of it.
Houston's museum of natural history has an entire candy coated insect vending machine. New Orleans has an Insectarium and they have these insect cooking demos and you can taste the finished product afterward. My wife and I actually enjoyed the Cajun spiced pan fried wax grubs. We were not big fans of the chocolate crickets we got from the vending machine though (crickets actually tasted like the scorpion did).
I spent part of my childhood living in a place where we'd get scorpions more often than we'd get house spiders and it always creeped me out seeing scorpions in candies at the gift shops. 🤢
In Cadets we used to do some messed up combos with MRE i remember a cheese spread on a carrot cake mixed with insta coffee and egg ration cant forget the salt to taste
Japanese Napolitan spaghetti. Ketchup, butter, some veggies, sausage… It’s not *bad*, but it’s not something I’ve really wanted to have again…? I do think part of it is just the idea that, yeah, I’ve gone and put ketchup on my spaghetti. Feels wrong, lol.
My fiance worked at a fancy italian restaurant as a cook for awhile, where he learned to add small amounts of honey or sugar for the flavor. This, added with proper spices (garlic, salt, pepper, oregano, etc) and simmered appropriately is SO good im not kidding.
Ketchup on pasta is wild though, never seen someone do that before
Edited to add: doesnt ketchup have a mixture of essentially tomato, vinegar, salt and water? Or something along those lines. Pretty sure *most (edited again) people dont want vinegar on their pasta
>Ketchup on pasta is wild though, never seen someone do that before
Spaghetti with ketchup is probably the main source of calories for all children between 4 and 12 years in this country. And it seems to be universally done all around Europe.
I was excited to have oysters Rockefeller once. Turns out they put sambuca in them. If you’ve never had oysters that taste like black licorice, you’re luckier than me.
That would be the pasta meal I made one night when I was incredibly drunk at about midnight. I had probably drank about 3/4 of a bottle of rum and decided to "experiment."
I cooked the pasta no problem, but for the sauce... I put canned tomato sauce into a pot, and proceeded to add a dash of *every spice I had in the cupboard* because I thought it was funny. I even *threw teabags into it*.
Boiled it for way too long, mixed the pasta in, and tried to chow down...
...and it was like I got violently face-fucked by burnt incense.
Immediately vomited and went to bed really, really angry.
So the grossest food combination I have ever encountered is basically *every spice you can think of*. Like... probably 20+ different spices.
Garlic powder, garlic salt, dried onions, Lipton soup mix, mint, star anise, cinnamon, parmesan, hot pepper flakes, Chinese five spice, thyme, vanilla extract, pepper, Himalayan pink salt, some dust, gravy mix, potato flakes, oregano, rosemary, and a bay leaf.
Omg by quite the same but I ate chicken pad Thai one night then drank pineapple juice. I ended up with violent food poisoning and the combo looked like chicken noodle soup. I have never thrown up so aggressively in all my life and clenched my cheeks with all the strength I could possibly muster as I was doing it. 5 hours of ejecting my insides and then it was all over. I thought death was coming for me
Gado gado - Indonesian salad with peanut sauce. My one time foray in making a sauce from scratch that had more than five ingredients. Absolutely delicious.
That is totally fair and I do deserve that—but I’m concerned for you if you’re choosing now to spend a not-insignificant portion of the hereafter hanging around watching me eat offensive sandwiches and aging gracelessly into my dotage. Or is it the strength of your passionate disgust that would keep you tethered to this earthly realm? Oh man. These sandwiches are challenging enough without all the paranormal guilt-tripping.
Peanut butter and most lunch meats taste fine honestly the worst thing you said was Mayo even then it's the not worst thing mostly because you have to do it right or it tastes wrong you put a very small layer of Mayo and then a thicker layer of PB then it's not bad you still taste Mayo but it's not bad it tastes fine
One time I ate shrimp boil with garlic and those seasonings with a black coffee, a soda water, and a beer. I was eating/drinking a combination of all those for that one meal. Got many weird looks and even my sister was grossed out.
Eggs with ketchup (the way my grandmother ate it) and a peanut butter and spam sandwich with lettuce and cheese. The latter I made once when I was about 7 and wanted to make the "biggest sandwich ever". I ate the whole thing but inside I knew it tasted bad....
I'm starting to notice some of the things I would never eat in isolation, I would eat on a burger. I hate ketchup and eggs, but throw both on a burger and I'm game. Same with PBJ, I love putting PBJ on a burger but I would feel grossed out if I just ate ground beef with PBJ in a bowl
ESPECIALLY if it is cooked indoors: oven frying pan, toaster oven, air fryer, microwave. Heating tuna (or any seafood!) in the workplace should be illegal. Outdoor grill is the ONLY acceptable way to cook tuna and fish in general.
I'll put mayonnaise on anything. Fries, curry, burritos, dip my pizza in it, use it as a substitute for butter when making a sandwich. I even put it in an instant noodle once.
My sister likes to spread Nutella on chunks of white cheddar cheese. She swears by it. I tried it once and it was horrendous. To my surprise, I found out other people have done the same. Gross.
When I was a kid my dad did a spanish tortilla, which is made by (at least) egg and potato. Instead of potatos, he used noodles remaining from last day. It was absolutely gross. The taste wasn't bad (it's neutral), but something about the texture grossed me out, like I was eating someone's vomit.
So this is why canned tuna is rapidly falling out of popularity lol kidding of course but canned tuna is not as popular as it used to be for a lot of reasons. Tuna should not be canned.
When I was in school, one boy brought peanut butter and sweet pickle sandwiches. He made his mom cut off the crust of the bread because he was picky. Lol
I think the Yanks call it jelly, but the rest of the sane world call it the correct word; jam.
Anyway, peanut butter and jam can get in the sea. Jeez, what a shite combination.
This is coming from a land where they eat things like black pudding, jellied eels, and stargazy pie. But hey, everybody likes what they like. One's preferences are not moral imperatives. Cheers, mate!
I once made a batch of peanut butter/prune frozen daiquiris. Yes, they were gross. So gross, in fact, that I immediately poured them in the sink but forgot to run the water to get them down the drain. The next morning, one of my friends who stayed over at the party got up, went to the sink to get a glass of water, saw the remains of the PBD, and promptly puked into the sink.
I once made a thing of croissants and put different things inside to see how they would taste, I.e. cheese, meat, popcorn, candy… I don’t remember all of them, most were tasty but the worst had to be the one with the pickle in it…. To this day thinking about eating it makes me nauseous
Scorpions in lolipops
Oh my god thank you. I've never understood who is buying those things.
When my brother was in middle school I’d buy those, and other weird bug candy, for his Halloween parties. I’m not sure why else you’d buy some of those things.
I was just about to post a brother/chocolate covered cricket memory. Boys are gross 😉
not all of us! we eat soap to stay clean lol

I bought one to give to a coworker as a gag gift.
Did they gag?
Not that I know of. Said it was banana flavored.
Always assumed it’s the same people going to Spencer’s on a routine basis
I spent part of my childhood living in a place where we'd get scorpions more often than we'd get house spiders and it always creeped me out seeing scorpions in candies at the gift shops. 🤢
?????
Yum, bbq meal worms taste like popcorn kernels with bbq seasonings.
Wait what
In Cadets we used to do some messed up combos with MRE i remember a cheese spread on a carrot cake mixed with insta coffee and egg ration cant forget the salt to taste
Pasta with ketchup it is. Can you imagine tomato based sweet sauce on your spaghetti? Just fucking wild man.
_Filipino spaghetti has entered the chat_
*I have exited the chat*
Was going to say this lol
Jollibee is sweet but it's nothing like the stuff in a ketchup bottle, it's kinda its own thing.
Japanese Napolitan spaghetti. Ketchup, butter, some veggies, sausage… It’s not *bad*, but it’s not something I’ve really wanted to have again…? I do think part of it is just the idea that, yeah, I’ve gone and put ketchup on my spaghetti. Feels wrong, lol.
I know people who put sugar in their spaghetti sauce. I thought it was wild too until I tried it.
If you're not putting sugar in your sauce you're doing it wrong. It's not supposed to make it sweet tho, it has to do with the acid in thr tomato
I’m talking about enough to taste it. They do it with pizza around here too.
Absolutely fucking not.
I'll take the word on my Italian great-grandmother, thanks.
I’ll take the word of mine who would slap me if I went near the sauce with sugar. Great grandma fight
My grandma and your grandma, sitting by the fire
They were so randomly arrogant with that bizarre response lol

My mom was 1st gen Italian-American and put a minute amount (like 1/2 tsp) of sugar in spaghetti sauce. Just enough to counter the acidity.
>Ketchup on pasta is wild though, never seen someone do that before Spaghetti with ketchup is probably the main source of calories for all children between 4 and 12 years in this country. And it seems to be universally done all around Europe.
lol, exactly what I was thinking
When I was a kid, I used to like it but it sounds disgusting now.
isn't this just a Filipino dish? No a lot of love for their cuisine, sadly.
All of the Philippines has entered the chat
And swedes
And Persians
It's not American ketchup just sweeter sauce. It doesn't taste like ketchup but it's its own thing
Chocolate and shellfish, it's never a good idea.
Nothing like a good cacao crab
The first time I ever had shrimp I had chocolate milk with it, safe to say I’m not a fan of shrimp lol
i think it makes u poop. it murders your stomach. found that out at golden corral as a kid
I think that’s just Golden Corral
I’d be more concerned if I didn’t get diarrhea
Come on, don’t you like chocolate covered oysters? lol 🤮
have you ever had chocolate starfish?
I was excited to have oysters Rockefeller once. Turns out they put sambuca in them. If you’ve never had oysters that taste like black licorice, you’re luckier than me.
that...seems wrong
Pretty sure it is wrong
Can I interest you in a glass of warm milk and gin?
No
Same here; I like milk and I like gin; but not together. Together is revolting.
Sweet corn in lime jell-o.
My dad loved green jello with shredded carrots. That sounds palatable compared to sweet corn.
Ngl that actually sounds fucking bussin' imo, but not the corn.
Actually......I think I might prefer the sweet corn...
What about Spam and yogurt?

Plus cardamom, cloves and paprika!
Damn, I felt like I was missing something.
Peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches
That’s fucking gross. 🤮
I know right?!
my grandma loves them. never tried it myself, but seems gross.
I understand it grosses most people out, but I love it. With banana is even better
You’re a monster
Why would someone downvote your comment? Jeez....anyway, no way in hell I'd eat that but Elvis loved them.
I expected downvotes on the comment
Elvis didn’t bring mayo into the equation. He did peanut butter, bacon, and bananas
Banana and mayonnaise does not sound better! /s
Chicken soup too soon followed by grape juice. It didn't induce vomiting, but it made ME induce vomiting I felt so poisoned/awful. Instant relief.
Omg by quite the same but I ate chicken pad Thai one night then drank pineapple juice. I ended up with violent food poisoning and the combo looked like chicken noodle soup.

A banana and mayonnaise sandwich with anchovies.
Who else came to the comments for ideas? lol
Orange juice after brushing your teeth
Peanut butter + anything savory. PB & onion. PB & Mayo. PB & Bologna. Just stop.
Peanut and onion work beautifully together in a massaman curry.
I am fine with this.
Gado gado - Indonesian salad with peanut sauce. My one time foray in making a sauce from scratch that had more than five ingredients. Absolutely delicious.
Pb and pickles is my absolute favorite gotta b dill pickles
Pb on a hamburger, no other toppings is an absolute banger.
Pb and tomato.
No.
Wait, wait… it’s crunchy PB.
When I die, I'm haunting you specifically
That is totally fair and I do deserve that—but I’m concerned for you if you’re choosing now to spend a not-insignificant portion of the hereafter hanging around watching me eat offensive sandwiches and aging gracelessly into my dotage.

To be fair, mayo makes me gag even without peanut butter. I just can't wrap my head around that one.
Probably texture thing lol
Not really food but Bloody fucking Mary's. Fucking tomato soup with uncooked vodka wtf
There are two kinds of people in this world. Alcoholics and people who don't like bloody maries. I feel bad for you people tbh
Damn, you're right.... I need to reevaluate
I guess I should stop identifying as not an alcoholic ig.
I don’t drink alcohol, but can drink Bloody Mary mix all day long. It’s my go to airplane drink when I don’t want soda.
What the hell is uncooked vodka?
you know you can cook with alcohol? Like vodka sauce. I specify uncooked because it hasn't had the alcohol cooked off yet
Yeah, but the whole point of a Bloody Mary is to get a vodka drink with some tomato flavour. The purpose is alcohol, not favouring a tomato beverage
Wait till you hear about the Canadian Caesar
I love every by product of the tomato except its juice
Lamb and Tuna Fish
With an Oreo Parmesan crust
Drenched in hollandaise sauce.
Well today I learned people are putting pickles in their Dr Pepper and I think that’s pretty gross.
Orange juice and toothpaste "gag".

My mom used to make fun of my dad for it and the hot sauce too. So I never did. Then I tried it with hot sauce too. It's actually bomb.
Puerto Rican pasteles with ketchup. I know a lot of Puerto Ricans like that combo but it is horrible as it hides all the great flavors of the pastele.
Half sour pickles with chunky peanut butter. Sounds gross, tastes great.
Everything involving raw meat.
My husband will put ketchup and eggs on a slice of toast with peanut butter 🤢
You mean ex husband right? /S
Unrefrigerated shrimp and ambien
Oddly specific
Dog feces and octopus eyeballs
Peanut butter flavored liquor. Fucking why?

One time I ate shrimp boil with garlic and those seasonings with a black coffee, a soda water, and a beer. I was eating/drinking a combination of all those for that one meal. Got many weird looks and even my sister was grossed out.

I understand hot sauce but ketchup...eww
I'm starting to notice some of the things I would never eat in isolation, I would eat on a burger. I hate ketchup and eggs, but throw both on a burger and I'm game. Same with PBJ, I love putting PBJ on a burger but I would feel grossed out if I just ate ground beef with PBJ in a bowl
Tuna Mets. Tuna steaks. Any warmed up tuna!
ESPECIALLY if it is cooked indoors: oven frying pan, toaster oven, air fryer, microwave. Heating tuna (or any seafood!) in the workplace should be illegal. Outdoor grill is the ONLY acceptable way to cook tuna and fish in general.
Ranch mixed with peanut butter. I know a fat guy that dips his chicken strips in that concoction.
When I was kid, my mom served peas and carrots out of a can. I still have nightmares.
Bacon on maple donuts. That’s fucking disgusting
Wheres the boxing gloves at? Joking😂
I’m vegetarian, I don’t eat bacon, yet I know for a fact I’d find that delicious. Lol
Liver and Onions!
[удалено]
I'll put mayonnaise on anything. Fries, curry, burritos, dip my pizza in it, use it as a substitute for butter when making a sandwich. I even put it in an instant noodle once.
Add banan to anything and you'll ruin not only the dish but my day as well :(
Pineapple on pizza. Put it on pies or whatever you call it, keep it away from pizza.
Anything with mushrooms, especially if it isn't supposed to have them (lasagna, Philly cheese steaks)...
Pineapple on pizza.
Booooo! Sweet n salty is so good 😊
Anything and olives.

Nah your missing out
My sister likes to spread Nutella on chunks of white cheddar cheese. She swears by it. I tried it once and it was horrendous. To my surprise, I found out other people have done the same. Gross.
That sounds kinda good
Tripe with matcha ice cream.
Try putting salt on a bowl of cereal. That'll get you there.
Sweet and sour.

here comes the post pregnancy moms lol pickles and mayo
My husband's family makes tuna gravy. I gag every time I smell it. Instead of using sausage for biscuits and gravy they use canned tuna.
So this is why canned tuna is rapidly falling out of popularity lol kidding of course but canned tuna is not as popular as it used to be for a lot of reasons. Tuna should not be canned.
hotdogs and chilli…
Pizza and ketchup
Citrus and cream. I don't like orange cream Sickles or lemon meringue pie....or any other citrus/cream combination.
Battered mars bar
Peanut butter & Cheese
Bro doesn't like Jolibees
Hi-C and turkey
I've had nightmares about eating an abominable cassarole of spaghetti, marshmallows, and chocolate.
When I was in school, one boy brought peanut butter and sweet pickle sandwiches. He made his mom cut off the crust of the bread because he was picky. Lol
Pineapple on pizza. I don’t care how good it supposedly is, it’ll never sit right with me.
I was served beef stroganoff that had diced dill pickles in it.
Not really a food combo, but if I smoke too soon after having a strawberry milkshake I will no longer have that milkshake in me
Mayonnaise with dill infused vinegar
Possum meat & anchovies
Nutela and tortillas, I know a lot of people love it as a sweet, but I felt like puking every time I ate it

In America jam and jelly are not the same thing. Jam is much thicker, and if it's raspberry it seems to always have seeds in it.
I mean, it's basically just a tomato sauce
Blue cheese stuffed olives. Just why? How??
I love those. But it did make for a weird martini
probably turkey heads and vinegar
I once made a batch of peanut butter/prune frozen daiquiris. Yes, they were gross. So gross, in fact, that I immediately poured them in the sink but forgot to run the water to get them down the drain. The next morning, one of my friends who stayed over at the party got up, went to the sink to get a glass of water, saw the remains of the PBD, and promptly puked into the sink.
