I'll start: pesto as a bagel topping.

Greek yogurt and natural peanut for breakfast. Not really that odd in my opinion but the face of the people I tell that too say otherwise.

I just started doing this, it's sooo goood! The PB cuts the sourness of the greek yoghurt. It's like super creamy PB.

I've been experimenting with hummus on stuff. My favorite do far was using it in place of salad dressing with some vinaigrette.

One of my favorite foods is piping hot macaroni and cheese topped with cold apple sauce. Everyone I know gives me bad looks, but I quite enjoy it.

My mom grew up poor and in the south, and one of her comfort "poverty foods" is a bologna and peanut butter sandwich. They're delicious.

Another one that's really good is Ritz crackers in milk.

Make a bowl of chili, make a peanut butter sandwich, drop the peanut butter sandwich in the bowl of chill, eat it. I think this is a midwestern thing and everybody else thinks I'm nuts until they try it.

Eating a lot of foods with Carolina Reaper or Ghost Pepper. I have carolina reaper infused sauce, salt shaker, chunky shaker, and whole pods and I would mix them with steak, pork chop, ramen, and so forth. I just like how it enhance the taste in different ways, not for everyone though.

Cheez-its dipped in melted chocolate

Boiling up pasta water, throwing in the pasta and pre-cooked meatballs, then letting it cook until the pasta is done.

Probably the most tame one in here, but I love to mix mayo with a little mustard to dip my french fries in. Baked potatoes with butter, sour cream, seasoning salt, and malt vinegar are also really good.

When you've been terribly poor, you get creative.

I once got tired of packet ramen and put some free milk I pilfered from a hotel into the broth to make it more like a creamy sauce. Black pepper and peanut butter can also do wonders. It's not 5 star dining, but it was better than you'd think. Especially after the 8th day in a row eating Raman and stolen fruit.

Ive done it again on the rare occasion, even now that I don't have to. My partner goes green when she sees it.

I basically eat all sandwiches on cinnamon raisin bagels if I can. Eggs, bacon/sausage, and cheese for breakfast? Yes. Pastrami and Swiss with mustard and sprouts? Yes. Tuna salad with Swiss? Yes. I get so many weird looks. But whatever. I like it. :)

One of my regular breakfast rotations is toast with creamcheese topped with either canned sardines or canned smoked oysters. Quick and tasty, but admittedly kinda weird.
