Filthy food habit… and what’s yours?

Not talking Biscoff straight from the jar here… its so low-level I’m compelled to post (with NC) so to expose the guilt/be shamed out of it.

Maggi noodles eaten dry, from the packet, with the seasoning sprinkled into them. Preferably chow mein flavour. But eaten in bed. Last night the flavouring went on my sheets which may or may not have been a turning point.

What’s your secret filthy food habit?

I have a stomach issue but if I did have one I could indulge in, it would be thick white bread, even thicker butter all wrapped around cheese and onion crisps.

I'm salivating thinking about it 😂but I can't handle the consequences

fiestaforevertilnow · 23/06/2024 18:07

White bread and butter dipped in coffee.

😍

When I was in the Sixth Form, I used to take either a jar of pickled mussels or a jar of cockles for my breakfast!

AliTheMinx · 23/06/2024 18:00

I eat raw bacon. Yep - I know it's highly dangerous, but I've been doing it for about 30 years and I'm still here to tell the tale!

My dad also used to sprinkle sugar on ham!..

@Snowpaw I take your scramble egg and hashbrown wrap and raise you Mine.. scramble egg, hashbrowns, cooked chopped bacon or sausage (or both!) green onions or scallions.. shredded cheese, wrap in the pan with just a squirt of oil and fry like a burrito..then ALL the sour cream (sorry no hot sauce for me)

Edited

I will definitely make that! Heaven

My kids eat mango with the skin on!

EternalSunshine19 · 22/06/2024 22:05

I eat prawns with the shells still on because i can't be bothered to de-shell. Also been known to eat the heads too, if they're still attached.

Tiredkittens · 22/06/2024 21:56

My main one is I eat big chunks of salted butter straight out of the fridge, with extra salt. (sea salt, for the crunch)

Some good tips amongst these though. Will have to try several. Pie sandwich sounds great for instance!

chattyness · 22/06/2024 21:10

Pie in a roll is an everyday food here especially a Scotch pie, it's not filth 😆

we were given condensed milk sarnies when we were little until my big brother said it looked like an old man's big sneeze 😖 so I never ate them again, snot butties no thanks. I do use cdm now but never in a sandwich.
My filthy food isn't that freaky really, thick white bread toasted & left to go cold before buttering and then sprinkle with chicken bouillon powder. Cheese and onion crisp butties, butter the bread add the crisps and then slice a mars bar length ways as thin as you can, layer on top of crisps and top with another slice of bread and butter

A Frazzle sandwich! OMG why have I not thought about this before??!!!

I used to have them when I was vegetarian, nearest thing to a bacon sandwich. Fakeon wasn't invented back in the day.

I’m also not above inhaling KFC hot wings dipped in KFC gravy (the bomb). My friend has a very unflattering memory of me, drunk, putting the whole gravied hot wing in my mouth, and pulling out just bones on the way out. As a pp said, prison vibes

@Rattenbury
That pot mash was in the shops when I was in the army 25 years ago. I used to take it instead of the ration packs. It was lovely the onion one.

XenoBitch · 21/06/2024 22:03

DM buys the awful square reformed ham... takes a slice and makes it into a cone shape... then fills it with vinegar. Then she posts it into her mouth.

That sounds gorgeous

gocompare · 22/06/2024 19:58

Chips, chopped pork, cheap white bread real butter sandwich.

Brown sauce sandwiches, made with plenty of butter.

Brown sauce on toast is even better

I thought I was the only disgusting bastard to do that!

See also:

Crunchy Nut Cornflakes... served with cream, not milk. Not milk AND cream. Just cream.

Deep fried chunks of tinned croissant dough, rolled in sugar. Makes enough to serve 6 at least. Is consumed by the two of us, til we feel very very sick.

This week... we got Krispy Kreme plain glazed rings... and stuck them on the waffle iron. They come out caramelized and crunchy on the outside. Heaven.

Other adventures with the Breville 3 in 1 include the Panini'd Cheeseburger (make a cheeseburger on a brioche bun, no salad obvs, hot salad is gross, pop it in the panini maker, goes all crunchy on the outside, soft and cheeseburgery in the middle.

My finest creation yet however, remains the Bread and Butter Pudding Toastie..

White bread - sultanas and shredded bread, cinnamon, custard filling - in the toastie maker and then dredge with cinnamon sugar when it comes out. chefs kiss

I am also partial to a potato salad and salami sandwich made on hot buttered toast. Crunchy and soft, creamy and salty, hot and cold - delicious, but messy.

Used to work in a shop with a big deck oven and would partially defrost croissants and stuff them with whatever chocolate bar and put them back in the oven

Your list sounds absolutely mint
