Questionable Culinary Concoctions

In the light of recent posts on another thread, some interesting food recipes, aka Questionable Culinary Concoctions, has come to light.

Thanks to the likes of @Drikusw , @RainstormZA and @Intuthu Kagesi 's dad, I am glad to see my pallet for food is not as strange as I thought.

So far we have:
Marie Biscuits with Butter
Marie's with Butter and Marmite
Peanut Butter and Marmite Sarmies
Peanut Butter and Banana Sarmies
Bacon and Banana

Another winner for me is chili pilchards on toast with golden syrup over the top.... a bit over the top it is, but it's devine!

Let's see what else everyone else enjoys and just maybe we find the replacement of the recent Big Mac Juice that popped up... (please NO, nobody make any of these flavors into a vape juice, I beg of you myself...you will spoil food for me for life...)

Nothing questionable about bacon and banana - it's a match made in heaven!
 
I love banana and chocolate. One bite of banana, next bite of chocolate - usually a Bar One. Yummy!!!!!!!
 
Roasted leg of lamb / pork with a smidgen strawberry or cranberry jam on the side :babeando:
Chilli chocolate
Frozen condensed milk
 
Weird but nice :
Mango and Chili Powder or pineapple and marsala mix on a stick, sold on the beachfront Durbs.

I knew a guy who loved golden syrup on his boerewors rolls... Personally I've never tried it but I'll never forget that odd combination

I can't knock that, as I like either an apricot jam or honey glaze on a gammon or spare ribs, and a preserve generally goes well with game :rolleyes:
 
My mate often has Tik Tik

He is so poor that they have to hang a piece of cheap cooked meat on a string, then they sit around the table with a bowl of pap. They take the pap in the fingers and Tik Tik against the meat to get a bit of flavour.

lasts three days man.

... and there I was thinking it was a drug :giggle:
 
When my sister was pregnant many years ago, she craved peanut butter and marmite sandwiches. I had to make them for her. I tried it once and it was surprisingly good! Haven't had them since then, but when I tried it, it was good.

No man @zadiac ... your sister at least had an excuse to eat them :think: ... pregnant woman and their cravings are a whole new kettle of fish as I'm sure most of us have witnessed :facepalm:

Hey, people are different and even though even the thought of peanut butter and marmite sounds revolting to you, it also did to me, until I tried it and was surprised that I liked it. That was the one thing that changed my philosophy to "don't say it's bad until you try it".

I am exactly like that, I will eat anything, well, almost anything. And as with life my Daughter has learned the same traits. She is up for anything to eat, and if she finds it yukky, it goes flying into the bin faster than it hit her taste buds, but she will not say NO to any snack tasting session.

Funny thing is that I cannot smell if dairy is off, I have to taste it. It is always an interesting exercise if my wife thinks the yoghurt or milk is off and she is like: "does this smell off to you?"... which leads to me having to do the taste test... some days it is fine, other days it is like licking the terminals on a 9v battery... ZINGGGGGG

Indeed you're right ... it's not our similarities, but rather our differences that make life interesting, and I do live life to the fullest, trying most things at least once, (which includes peanut butter and marmite ... hence the chirp ;)).

I think it safe to say, that after trying out various, (bordering obscene on occasion), dishes, plied by family and friends, that my culinary tastes are somewhat staid, however; beyond food ... I'm that friend that believes life is dynamic, and that paradigms shift, so I'll push boundaries to see if purported limits are actually THE limits.
 
I have had , frog's legs, brains, tripe, mopani worms, chicken feet, livers , heart, kidney, Haggis, Pofadder and Skilpadjies.

Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Italian, German, Austrian, Thia, Mexican, Indian, Portuguese, Malaysian, Botswana'n, South African and Tanzanian food along with many more I can't remember.

The least outstanding of them all is British food. Good and wholesome sure, but boring and to counter that, really gross . Sorry but faggots and stargazer pies are gross and disgusting.

Faggots? You sure you spelled that correctly?
