Strange or weird things you ate or strange ways you ate as a kid

[Zerpina]

Each and every one of us had some weird food quirks as a kid....

Hell, some of us still have them, whether it's liking pickles and peanut butter, syrup on pizza (I'm guilty of the pizza one) or Cheerios in soup. So, what weird things did you eat as a kid or still eat as an adult?​

As a kid for whatever reason, if we had home baked pizza, I had to have my pizza slices re-baked after it came out, with maple syrup on it. Now... to be fair, I was a weird messed-up kid anyway, but I don't mean like half a bottle of syrup... I mean a little coating and caramelized under the broiler.

Also as a kid, I used to eat that alphabet soup. For those of you who have never seen or don't know what it is, it's basically veggie soup with pasta shapes in it of the alphabet. I absolutely would not eat the letter P.
I looked over every spoonful like a detective looking for fingerprints. No idea to this day why I did that, but at the time, when I was asked, I said the letter P tasted funny.

This stuff

So... let's hear it, ya weirdos :D

Not me but my mate in primary school used to eat chalk as for me I used to eat Milo straight out of the tin

One thing I remember from my childhood is that I'd put the ketchup on my pizza and then lick it entirely before properly eating the pizza...

We also had this turtle-shaped chocolate in my country and I remember I'd first eat the back paws, then the front paws, then the head and finally the tail, always in this order, before eating the body. Truly a psycho.

don’t know if you can them weird but these foods are more like a dare or a challenge from Fear Factor rather than a delicacy.

First off the low tier one
Fried Frogs-these are mainly common on provinces more specifically are like farm fields that are near to a body of water(lakes and creeks)

What does it takes like?
It tastes like chicken.

And here’s the top tier
Balut- it’s basically a boiled duck embryo. This street food is commonly on sale during nighttime.

What does it tastes like?
It taste like unseasoned boiled chicken and egg yolk.

Though I really love specially if paired with ice cold beer.

Not ate, but I once put a cockroach wing in my mouth and chewed for a while before throwing it out because I thought it was a chocolate piece. In my defense, I was four and hadn't seen a cockroach till then, and it was detached piece.
