To Sheep, Perchance to Meme:

I'm starting this one off, in hopes that it'll pick up:

What's your most decadent guilty-pleasure comfort food? Not the Big Expensive Treat Yourself Luxury Meal, but the bizarre food from your childhood that makes normal people cringe but never fails to bring a smile to your face, even as you know how awful it must sound. Let me know, then post this (and your confession) in your own journal to spread the contagion!

Mine: A peanut butter & brown sugar sandwich, with margarine (not butter), on whole wheat bread. Beverage: milk, water, or soy milk. Strawberry Quik optional; soda or juice not advised.

Banquet or Swanson frozen Salisbury steak meal. I could eat them almost every night, and there have been times that I did.

I have several:

1. French fries and vanilla ice cream
2. A bag of M&Ms dumped into a cold glass of milk
3. Rice scrambled with eggs and slathered in ketchup

Actually, a Wendy's Frosty is great for #1, too.

I shall go for the one mostly to e considered weird: saltines broken up and soaked in milk like cereal. It's hard to find a proper saltine like cracker now though, most of them don't have the proper toasted flavor anymore (though Goya has a nice round cracker that works well.)

Sardines. Stinky fish are the best.

Or, more commonly (in respect to my roommates),

Cheese (or cheese and onion) enchiladas with chili con carne on top, refried beans and Spanish rice. Eat the enchiladas, mix the beans and rice with the rest of the chili con carne (and any leftover cheese), and polish it all off with tortilla chips. Starch, starch, starch, starch, starch, starch, starch, protein, and starch.

(Cafeteria Lady: "Protein is off."

Eric Idle: "Well, can I have starch instead of protein?"

Cafeteria Lady: "You mean starch, starch, starch, starch, starch, starch, starch, starch, and starch."

Vikings: "Lovely starch, lovely staaaaarch! Lovely starch, lovely staaaaar--"

Cafeteria Lady: SHUT UP! Bloody Vikings....")

Does the margarine instead of butter make a noticeable difference?

[athelind.livejournal.com]

Butter tastes wrong.

And you can't spread it without tearing the @#$% bread.

Mm.. lots of yummy asian dishes that most people have no idea about...

I think the best is squid/cuttlefish jerkey, though.

Hmm. I still like Twinkies, Ho-Hos, and... well, pretty much the entire Hostess snack lineup really. Also hot chocolate with honey. And by 'hot chocolate' I mean "having a little water with your cocoa" hot chocolate.

It's all about the PB&J sammich with a whole mess of cheetos right there in it. The flavors meld very well, and the cheetos give a good crunchy texture to an otherwise "meh" sort of sandwhich.

Must be crunchy cheetos, not those puffy ones. And the flavors meld best with strawberry jelly, IMO.

Speaking of cheetos. A co-worker recently got me hooked on the most vile-sounding combination that turned out pretty good.

Flaming Hot Cheetoes dipped in mayonnaise.

Sounds gross as hell I know, but I took a strong liking to it.

Glurk. Mayonnaise is my Kryptonite.

It makes me turn green and queasy.
