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’ve never admitted this to anyone… But when I was in my teens and twenties, I liked to get a big bag of Hula Hoops crisps.

I’d take two in my mouth and chew them until they were a mush. Then I’d take the mush out of my mouth and fill a third one with it (this is beyond disgusting, I know). I’d then put the mush-filled Hula Hoop on a plate to let it cool down (cos my saliva and the mush being in my mouth had made it warm) all the while repeating it with the others in the packet. Then when I’d done them all and let them cool, I’d gobble them up.

I have no place on this earth, I know. But honestly I’d do it again. Ha!

Scraping all the brown roast chicken goo from the roasting tin and eating it off the spoon 😋

Waffle sandwich anyone? Potato waffle done in the toaster on with ketchup 🤤 depending on the mood I sometimes add plastic cheese or bacon, sometimes both, and sometimes I'll chuck the whole damn thing in the toastie press with extra butter on the outside for some extra burn 🤤

Not current but when I was little (and not veggie) my nanny used to carve up ham with jelly on and throw it across the table for me to eat like a dog... Happy memories 😄

Reallytwoappointmentsinoneday · 21/06/2024 23:03

After seeing it on dragons den I munched chocolate and crisps together. It was wonderful.

I’ve not done it again as I”m concerned about my weight as it is without munching two of my favourite things together.

I thought that was pretty way out but some of these are 🤮. I can’t even begin to understand how anyone can drink vinegar 🤮🤮🤮

But but but... What about the gravy? It needs the bits and the goo!

Sardinesguilt · 21/06/2024 23:04

Tin of sardines or salmon with all the crunchy little bones or skin in. Then mop up the juice or oil with crusty bread.

My brother saves the fat in his air fryer.... chicken, pork, fish, whatever....
Uses it for the best roasties.

Linguine, ridiculous amount of butter, blob of marmite, cheese.

nigella managed to make it a “recipe”/blog so it must have some credentials.

i just love it for its carby/umami goodness.

But a glug of vinegar will cure hiccups ASAP so some pros.

Wotsits... biting the ends off of of them, then licking the ends and sticking them together to make a Mega Wotsit.

😅

This is why I love MN...
No really my filthy habit anymore.... but I used to dissolve smarties without breaking the shells... and then stack these up to eat...It was more boredom of being a teenager than actually taste!

Crispynoodle · 21/06/2024 23:11

Sausage bap with baked beans in the bap lush

BabyBobs · 21/06/2024 23:12

Cheese and marmite sandwich made normally with butter and cheddar. Splash on milk so that the bread absorbs the milk.

Microwave until cheese melts/bubbles.

Sprinkle on some chopped roasted and salted peanuts. A mixture of a gooey and crunchy and salty and creamy loveliness.

Wotsits or chipsticks dipped in yogurt.

Ha mine used to be wotsits dipped in mayo I forgot about that!!!

@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

Well that's genius

LittleEsme · 21/06/2024 23:15

Instant mash with tons of butter and grated cheese. Next mix in cold baked beans and a tin of sweetcorn.

Eat.

Thickly sliced marzipan off the block….

Sliced? I would just bite into it!

Sierra26 · 21/06/2024 23:20

I’m stunned that two entirely separate people have said they fill crisps with chewed up crisps and then eat them

whengodwasarabbit1 · 21/06/2024 23:20

Cheap cheese melted in a bowl in the microwave and dipping in white sliced bread. It's amazing.

YorkshireLandlady · 21/06/2024 23:21

Sugar sandwiches- cheap white bread & butter so it doesn't all fall out.
Or corned beef on toast with cheap cheese plastic singles.

banjaxedeejit · 21/06/2024 23:24

Butter spread on weetabix

itsallabitofamystery · 21/06/2024 23:25

I lick my crisps. Any flavour. Any brand. All licked and then consumed. Salt and Vinegar Discos actually cut my tongue and make it bleed, but it's so worth it.

And pickled onions dunked in salad cream until they're completly covered, then eaten whole.

TheHateIsNotGood · 21/06/2024 23:26

For dessert: shop bought choc cake + cheapo ice cream, microwaved + cheapo honey to top. A sweet, calorific, teeth-rotting, budget-busting joy to end any meal.
