Idiosyncratic Food!

[rabet]

Do you have odd tastes in food? I love Marmite sandwiches with cucumber, and lettuce with sugar. Here in Yorkshire they eat cheese with Christmas cake, but not being a native I have not got into that! Do you have any strange tastes in food?

Wensleydale & Christmas Cake is not weird ... it's a lovely tradition :+)

11th commandment - 'Thou shall eat thy fruitycake with an mild crumbly cheese as begot from the beasts of the field or Waitrose....'

OOOH no! I don't like sweet and sour stuff.

[rabet]

[humbersloop]

thy fruitcake is called plumbread, and it is from Lincolnshireandthereabouts, and it is made to eat with cheese, and lo! it is good

Nah, it's gotta be stilton with Christmas cake.

[pretty_snowdrop]

Christmas cake and cheese isn't weird it's completely normal. I like cheese and Jam sandwiches which I am told by OH is strange.

[shoota]

Try it.

[Tilly2]

Mature Cheddar, a slice of rich fruit cake and a glass of white wine is what Christmas afternoon is all about.

Love lettuce in a salad with sugar and vinegar on .Yummy.

[Tilly2]

I put salt on lemons and eat them like I would an orange. Is that idiosyncratic?

[Jeza]

I also like a cheese and jam sandwich. Cheese must be mature cheddar and jam must be strawberry.

When I was a small child my Aunt Annie had a chip shop and she introduced me to salad cream on fish and chips, Anyone else do this?

[Georgiesmum]

We always, always, always, eat a hot cross bun with a nice thick slice of mature cheddar in it. Theres no other way!
Don knock it until you try it. Its very tasty.!

It used to be "Chips with Everything". Now it seems to be "Cheese with Everything"! Sorry, Arnold Wesker.

Buttered fruit malt loaf with salami slices on top as a snack half way through a shoot morning, washed down with a dribble of sloe gin.....

[askyourgran]

I love my salad chopped up with mayo or salad cream and sugar. OH used to like soup with a pork pie in it (until shortly after we were married).
