I'll start: pesto as a bagel topping.

Rice porridge with milk instead of water. It’s a thing where my parents are from but I’ve never heard of anyone else having it before. It goes great with nuts. I prefer bbq flavoured peanuts, but anything sweet and salty will work.

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

I will not-unhappily reheat and eat unrefrigerated two-day-old pizza. But I have the world's lowest standards for food.

Creamy polenta with head cheese. Yes, the head cheese melts. And yes, it's delicious.

A dash of yogurt in instant noodles (specifically Indomie). Also, pesto on bagel is indeed reaaaally good. Especially if you add cream cheese, a fried egg, some spinach and make a kind of sandwich out if it.

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.

I mix Coke and Orange Juice to wake up in the morning sometimes. My wife that dips steak in ranch dressing and friend that eats peanut butter and ham sandwiches hate it.

I once watched a friend mix soda and milk together and then drink the entire thing like nothing was wrong. I was horrified.

My girlfriend and her entire family think I'm an alien for drinking milk whenever I have popcorn. It doesn't even register as a strange combination to me. I think they're very complementary flavors.

Sometimes I'll add a slice of cheese to my bread slice with Nutella.

Having that said, a more normal one that some people find it odd is ham with jelly on my bread.

I loved cream cheese and grape jelly sandwiches when I was a kid! Nobody else was convinced that it’d be good, but it certainly works for me

You should try cream cheese with a spicy pepper jelly on crackers! So good.

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

This is actually delicious, they sell a lunch item at my local supermarket which consists of salad greens, three (admittedly soggy) falafel, and a small pot of hummus. I love it- I mix the hummus with the greens, it makes an amazing dressing.

@[email protected] what kind of bagels are we talking here? Pesto on a toasted everything sounds amazing.

We make chips out of Plantago major with a little oil, salt, garlic, and pepper. I once got a stern talking to about eating the fruit from a 'Kousa' dogwood from the owner of the landscaping company I was working for. In my defense, they were shared with the owner of the tree, who had never sprayed any -cides there.
