Oversleep Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 I've seen many things, but I've never seen a post about food being downvoted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mestiv Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 I don't agree it should be downvoted so I fixed it My favorite thing to put on a sandwich (excluding sweet things like Nutella and honey) is yellow cheese + mayonnaise + onion + salt. I can eat this combination whole day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwiLyghtSansSparkles Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 America is a free country and I'll speak of peanut butter if I want to! It really is a nifty little spread. It's inexpensive, full of protein, and versatile enough to be eaten in a sandwich or in a sauce. If you think it tastes good, you can do a lot worse. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgedancer Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 To throw something less conventional in here, take a bread roll slice it open, throw butter, mettwurst, onions, salt and pepper on it, close it again and enjoy the meal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oversleep Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 This time of year, my tomatoes ripen. There are a lot of them, so we're eating lots of them... and in every meal possible. This obviously means we're eating a lot of Italian food and that's awesome Have you ever eaten a tomato like you would eat an apple? I do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have nothing against tomatoes in sauces or soups, but there's something about the texture of them—raw or cooked—that just turns me off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erunion Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 Food. Food. The deliciousness of food is clear evidence of a benevolent deity ;D In this I must support @TwiLyghtSansSparkles - peanut butter is not to be underestimated. One of my favourite evening snacks (or light late night dinners when I get home from work at 9:30) is a tortilla, with melted peanut butter (15 seconds in the microwave, on the tortilla), wrapped around a banana. Slightly sweet, slightly savoury, slightly salty, and an amazing post work/workout snack (great nutrition too!). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magestar Posted September 3, 2016 Report Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) I just can't eat most tomatoes. The texture, the taste... Yech. Except for Cherry tomatoes, which I eat like grapes. And I don't have a problem with any tomato based products. Huh. As for spreads, Sour Cream is the only way to go. It goes on everything. EVERYTHING.

It's actually not that difficult. Even if your supermarket doesn't stock top quality produce, a fair number of people grow them in backyard gardens, and sell the surplus at farmers' markets. I've tried them straight out of the garden, as fresh as fresh can get, and I didn't like them any more than I liked them from the supermarket.

I eat them straight out of the Garden, when I have to eat them, but I wonder if the seeds used in the USA are just all genetically modified anyway. Or maybe you just can't grow them right here.

Or maybe you just can't grow them right here. A little known fact is that most of tomatoes you eat are genetically modified. However, it has no effect on the taste. I'd suspect the conditions. I buy only from farmers' market and I still have to know who has good ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can buy it in every shop, it's everywhere.

Were you to see pepper jelly on the shelf of a US grocery store, you might think the same thing as you do about Marmite—that people buy it but don't eat it. You would be wrong. Horribly, horribly wrong. My grandmother buys pepper jelly. And she eats it. On peanut butter sandwiches. I will never forget the time….the time….the…the picnic….when….oh, I was so hungry, so grateful for that peanut butter sandwich, and I bit into it and…. *shudder* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've long suspected her taste buds were burned off or fatefully rearranged. It would explain the deviled ham salad sandwiches that made my then-four-year-old sister burst into tears.
