I sometimes eat my ramen as if it were a cracker. What are some of your weird food habits?
I sometimes eat my ramen as if it were a cracker. What are some of your weird food habits?
Others I have:
Honey mustard on everything, I especially like to dip my pizza crust in it.
The fried crispy onions I buy and eat like potato chips, they also make fried red peppers and dried jalapenos.
I hate lays chips but sometimes, that's what's left in those small chip bags variety packs. I put hot sauce in it and shake it up!
My family drinks lemon juice with salt, could be a normal thing but I've never come across anyone else that does it.
Like actual pure lemon juice. I could barely handle a squirt lol. Does the salt nullify anything?
Either straight up or with water, like sour lemon aid. Oh and carbonating it makes it's so much better. The salt does change it, maybe takes the edge off but it's hard to describe other than the sour part of sour candy.
I like eating lemons with salt on them; it makes it sweet instead of sour somehow. IDK about putting salt in lemon juice, but I would assume it's the same.
I would just like to point out that there is a Korean snack, which is basically like a pack of ramen noodles and a packet of seasoning powder. You're supposed to break up the "noodles" (not actual ramen) and then open the bag, sprinkle in the powder, and shake it all up.
It's called ppushu ppushu, which translates to "break it break it".
I put sweet and spicy Asian hot sauce on mine. Also, when I do make ramen the intended way, I usually drain all the water and eat the noodles without the flavor packet. I add Parmesan and bacon bits along with other seasonings. Currently it is Dan-Os famous Tiktok seasoning.
we used to have them in australia (different name) back in the 90s
ā¦ i literally buy a big pack of dry ramen noodles and chip salt (or stock powder) of different kinds for the seasoning and itās great
me right now
When having a headache, I get a craving for spicy, but if I'm not hungry, I take a hit (eat a spoonful) of Mixed Pickle sauce by Shan or Mother's Recipe.
I love those salty sour weird pickles so much, the ones with unripe mango are heavenly.
I eat the entire kiwi. Fuzz and all.
I seriously thought everyone did this until my husband pointed out how weird it was. I hate that tough little nub. Always get rid of the Kiwanus and then just go to town.
If you bite the nub early it may mostly vanish into the kiwi. As long as I remember to do that I don't mind eating the nub.
That makes at least 3 of us!
If you dip cheetos into chocolate pudding it's a sweet & salty happiness combo.
I put mustard in spicy ramen. It works, adds a bit of creaminess and tang.
What kind of mustard?
Just plain yellow xD
Popcorn and chocolate. The airiness of popcorn somehow make taste of chocolate sweeter, more intense
Leaving aside that salty and sweet is a well known flavor combination, they sell chocolate drizzled popcorn so I'm afraid to inform you this is just basic.
I'll eat raw pasta like a snack. I'm talking buying entire boxes or bags just to eat it raw even though I do enjoy cooked pasta as well. My favorites are tomato farfalle, lasagne, fusilli and tagliatelle. Somehow my teeth are absolutely fine from this too! Been doing this since I was little and my parents think the habit stemmed from my love for eating bones.
I eat shrimp tails and will sometimes eat the shell as well, if the shrimp has been fried. Shrimp tails have so much flavour so will eat them regardless of preparation.
I don't eat them for flavor, but I eat them because I'm a lazy ass motherfucker who doesn't feel like removing them from my food. So I just eat them. Why not?
Huh. I hate them in food but use them for stock. Shrimp peels and an onion are all you need for a very flavorful stock.
I honestly can't stand eating packaged dried so-called "ramen" made the way the instructions say. I can only bear eating them ... like crackers. So I'm with you on that.
My own weird thing?
I like eating plain steamed buns ("mantou") by using a dip made of peanut oil, a few drops of sesame oil, and some decent rice vinegar.
I do the ramen thing too, It's great and even more so in parts of asia were the noodles are flavored.
I also have this dish that is weird but I love (for lazy and taste reasons)
I boil noodles in a pan, drain them, add some oil and a BUNCH of sriracha, then cook and slowly add nutritional yeast untill it's a big ball of spicy savory (unhealthy) delight. Ten minutes to cook and one pan and a set of chopsticks to clean.
That sounds delicious and not really strange at all. Sounds like a regular fried noodle dish.
Canned tuna on grits. Cheese and raw sliced garlic on crackers. Kimchi chopped and mixed in cream cheese for everything bagels.
You are so true for kimchi/cheese on bagels. For more decadence add a fried egg on top as well.
Oh my god... Kimchi and cream cheese.... do you soften the cream cheese first? Layer it? Teach me your ways.
Warm the cream cheese, chop the kimchi, mix them. Back into the refrigerator. Done.
Vienna sausages straight out of the can. Only certain brands though. Some are too snappy feeling.
Wait, thereās another way? What else would you do with them?
Thatās what I always thought but apparently theyāre supposed to be used in dishes (theyāre phenomenal in eggs btw). Whenever Iāve mentioned I eat them like that, people normally get grossed out.
If you like snacking on fried hot peppers you should look for Magic Chili at the Asian market. They're so good
Chocolate Animal Crackers and Cheese Whiz
make toast
Butter toast
Drown in lemon pepper seasoning
BTW, fellow aussies: try euro foods chicken salt on popcorn šš
chicken salt on literally anything
also master foods does a charcoal chicken shaker fries seasoning and itās amazing
Check out Baby Star ramen snacks. It's just packaged ramen bites. I suppose it's a little weird in the west maybe, but at least one company sells ramen bits to snack on like crackers in Japan. Friend of mine loved them.
For us Aussies, I dip my cheezels in Greek yoghurt. Best to use chop sticks so your fingers don't get messy.
Canned tuna mixed with vinegar and raw onion.
