    So dont knock it untill you try it.

    Grape jelly on pepperoni pizza. Its soooo good, the sweet cold jelly spread on a hot greasy pizza is just a combo like nothing else.

      Also someone told me about it before and I thought it sounded disgusting. But one night I had some less than good pizza and some gravy in the fridge.

      Turns out the friend who told me was right. Gravy in pizza is good. Just don’t have a heart attack.

    Time for my abuelo’s only surving recipe to shine. Hang in there with me for this one!

    Set gas burner to medium low.

    Take a corn tortilla (bonus if you made it yourself, but store bought works in a pinch) and throw it on the burner.

    Flip the tortilla just as the side is beginning to have burnt spots but make sure the things not catching on fire; we’re going for ‘foldable without breaking’ so don’t torch the thing.

    Once the other side looks like the first side, remove from heat.

    Now, the next part depends on how clean you keep your burner…

    If its clean, take your bologna (if your still with me I promise it’s worth it) out of its packaging and huck it on the burner.

    Do not let it burn as its going to smell like burnt bologna.

    Remove from heat and wrap in your tortilla.

    Eat it while you clean your burner then question your life choices. 10/10 every time.

      This reminds me of a childhood snack I would do… tortilla on a gas stovetop until slightly browned then roll an American cheese slice in it afterwards when it’s piping hot off the burner. Or just a plain tortilla from the burner. I can still remember frantically blowing my burning tortilla out like it was yesterday. Agreed 10/10.

    Something genuinely weird that i don’t make very often is a wendigo sandwich. It contains (in order) peanut butter, pickles, bacon, mayo. I make it vegan but I still say it’s good

    Something i actually eat at night: random cheap kids cereal with walnuts, pepitas, or frozen berries

    If it’s good hot, I’ll probably wrap it up in a tortilla and then fry it on the stove. Burritos make basically any food better.

      Bonus pts for wetting the tortilla first, depending on ingredients. That can help bring out its flavors and give it more complexity in terms of the cooking.

      Another one is adding a few drops of ghost pepper chipotle sauce, grated parm/cheddar, and garlic powder to the ingredients. Tajin can be nice, too.

    I’ll take a chocolate pudding cup and mix in some cheddar goldfish crackers. The strong flavor contrast and texture contrast makes it so fun to eat. Another option is to take cheddar potato chips and dip them into the pudding like a normal chip dip.

    I have a lot of weird food habits thanks to years of eating disorders and just generally being a fucking weirdo, but lately I enjoy mixing a couple tablespoons of raw coconut flour with just enough sugar-free Torani s’mores flavored syrup to give it a cookie dough texture, and a bit of salt. It’s like a bowl of sugar cookie dough my delusional need to stay too-thin doesn’t feel terrible about, and since the artificial sugar and citric acid isn’t a great reaction with my meds, I only have it from time to time. 100% do(n’t) recommend!

    Kraft (specifically Kraft) mac and cheese as served on a restaurant kid’s menu.

    Something about the bland reheated taste and not having to do shit about it myself just soothes my soul

    I’ve got this easy recipe that I keep doing on weekdays, for lunch, 3 times a week.

    Ingredients :

    • 1 pita bread
    • some protein (eggs, tuna, chicken…)
    • 1 green onion
    • small cubes of cheese, I like using feta, but whatever you prefer
    • I like adding fruits like a few sliced grapes or half an apple, diced
    • diced bell pepper, sweet pickles, whatever veggies you like.
    • arugula or spinach or lettuce
    • some sunflower seeds
    • 1 spoon of light Philadelphia cream cheese, to keep all of it together.

    Instructions :

    1. Mix all the stuff.
    2. Cut the pita bread in 2 halves.
    3. Fill them with the stuff.
    4. Add the remaining of the apple to the plate
    5. Consume and enjoy greatly.

    I grew up in a very ghetto area so sometimes I drink 211, cheap 40s, or hobo wine and it reminds me of my childhood. Bonus points if I can find the glass 40oz bottles but they’re super rare nowadays.

    Yes I can absolutely afford actually good beer and I actually have a pretty good taste in beer (at least I think so)
