I don't know if any of you have particularly weird things you like to eat or drink… one of my favourite soft drinks is spruce beer. There are basically two kinds of it (without counting actual beer with spruce) that are easy to find, at least in Quebec. One is basically a Pinesol-flavoured cream soda, and one is a ginger spruce beer which tastes like someone mixed tonic water, raw ginger, and a spruce branch. The latter is very strong, probably as strong as one can get without delving into alcohol.
Most of you probably wouldn't want to try it, but I really dig it from time to time… clears out the sinuses, just like ginger beer.
So what do you eat/drink that's weird?

I like pork brains scrambled with eggs. Yum! I haven't had it in years, though, as my wife refuses to cook them and I just never remember to grab some when I am at the store.

I like hot and spicy stuff. The hotter the better. Haberneros? Just bring it! Ghost peppers? Just bring it!! I love hot stuff. Now I don't go crazy with it. Especially ghost pepper sauce. One drop is all it takes anymore than that and it would be like adding sulfuric acid to your food.
I also like cantaloupe with sausage gravy. Haven't had it in years.

Morningstar Veggi Burgers
I was turned on to them when I started my diet back in 2010. When my wife brought home the package, I said NOOOOO WAY !!! There's NO way I'm eating a "veggi burger" !!! GROSS !!!
She said, "just try it. If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it"
... I couldn't believe it, but I loved it !! It tastes fantastic !
I tried other veggi burgers over the years and they tasted like crud... or sawdust... echh !! But the brand called MORNINGSTAR ? Oh HECK yeh ! They are SO good. So yeh, definitely a "weird food" - haha

Back in our vegan days we used to make tofu scramble and my wife loved it. Consisted of bell peppers, onions and extra firm tofu broken up and seasoned with nutritional yeast. Add some salt, pepper and a little thyme along with some chopped roma tomatoes near the end and you get something that looks a little like scrambled eggs.....and almost tastes like them.
I love goat cheese, but most people seem to turn their nose up at it.

I can totally relate, that was pretty much my exact reaction to eating caviar the first (and only) time I tried it.

I can't stand fruit cake. That is the gift you give someone you seriously dislike.

Well, I have it there because I think it's funny. It's actually from something. I don't know what to call it. The burger's name is Burgie. He floats across the screen sometimes.

I've never heard of Blue French Cheese. I have heard of just Bleu Cheese. I love Bleu Cheese dressing on my salads and to dip hot wings in!

I tried another specialty soft drink recently. It's made in the Lac-Saint-Jean (as far north as Québec gets before getting into the practically barren areas), and it basically tastes like a red lollipop. It's not fantastic if you ask me, but it's definitely pretty good. Still doesn't hold a candle to spruce beer if you ask me.
