Food combinations that others might think are weird

@WelshBlue

I can't help thinking of some of the more robust whiskies from Scotland, especially Islay … petrol comes up as a genuine tasting note

There's a distillery on Islay called Laphroaig which was allowed to carry on selling in the USA during prohibition because they convinced Customs & Excise that it tasted so bad people would only buy it for medicinal value

@Biblioklept as a child I can remember eating it at a neighbours house back in the 60s. My mum then starting making them and we have passed the love onto my son. Yummy, I fancy one now.

I enjoy artisan bread nowadays but for some reason this sandwich tastes nicer if made with packaged white sliced bread 😄and the cucumber needs to be very thinly sliced.

It certainly doesn't taste medicinal, goodness knows how the distillery pulled that one off!

That aside, i definitely wouldn't want anything in my house that king big ears enjoys.

Laphroaig is the only whisky I like, to me it taste smoky & a little fruity, but, that's just me! 😆I have syphoned petrol, but wouldn't say it has those notes, just the burn.

@Santosha12, I also had bread sop as a kid, but with cold milk & the sugar sandwiches too! Oh, those were the days!!

Growing up with a functioning alcoholic father who would stop off at the pub for a half pint of whiskey (literally in a 1/2 pint glass) the smell alone is enough to turn my stomach … would rather drink petrol 😁

Marmite crisps, love them but couldn't eat the real thing.

All this talk of cucumber … love it, but an hour later even with my GERD tablets it hates me with a vengeance. A bit of a mickey take really when I'm religiously looking after 3 cuc' plants for my wife to have them

With food, if I don't like the texture the taste doesn't matter
