Me too!

I like King Oscar Tiny Tots. Bristling sardines in EVOO (which I mostly drain off). Sardines are at the bottom of the foot chain, so no accumulation of arsenic.

I put a tin of ‘em on two slices of Mestemacher Pumpernickel which I first spread with Thumann’s Creamy Horseradish. Black pepper & seasoning salt.

Fried mullet (it’s a Florida thing, as I’ve never met anyone elsewhere that does)


I haven't had fried mullet since I was a boy (in Florida).

Liver!!! Beef, pork (wild boar a favorite), deer, moose, chicken, turkey, goose,....love it all!

Fried liver with onions and bacon a favorite served warm or (the next day) on white bread with mayo and lettuce as a sandwich. Also love chopped chicken liver with hardboiled egg on rye bread, chicken livers with cheddar cheese and mushrooms in omelette or with scrambled eggs.

Peanut butter and Miracle Whip sandwich with a chaser of canned peach juice. Dipping sandwich in juice is ok too.

Marmite!

A popular condiment in the UK, but few Americans know of it. Marmite is to savory as sugar is to sweet.

Here on my Bisquick Cheese & Garlic “cookie” along with peanut butter. Delectable!

I had this last night for my after-super treat. This evening it’ll be PB & Marmite on Ritz crackers.

Cilantro.
I guess from prior threads some hate it and compare it to eating grass or similar.
Don't know why ~ you don't eat it by itself but as a garnish usually with Mesican food.
Same for parsley, oregano, thyme, etc. ~ I love how all these herbs can enhance many things but don't just munch on it like a cow like the idiot critics profess. Eek

Ox tails are good to me; not many people around here use them.

Another sardine, kipper and anchovy fan.

I really like anchovy on my pizzas and lots of them. No need for salt.

I also put sliced radishes on a salami or other such cold cut sandwich. Provides a bit of crunch as well as contrasting flavors.

Another thing I really like is oyster dressing, made the usual way bread turkey dressing is except with oysters and their liquid. I guess that's really not all that odd, but no one in my family or small circle of friends will even touch it. Meh, more for me.

Rocky Mountain oysters. Deep fried with cocktail sauce. Yum.

I'll second the okra in any form. Love beets as well. will eat sardines - don't crave them. love some spam once every week or two.
Escargot, definitely eat them broiled with some garlic butter and crusty bread.

New one that I haven't seen yet: Tripe. I get the canned tripe when I can find it and batter and fry it up. Good stuff. A little chewy.

That sounds pretty bad

For my fellow old and crusty Veterans. I thought the omelet MRE was good, eaten cold with Tabasco on it

I had escargot when I was 3 yrs old, picked fresh off the ground, uncooked, with the shell still on. (one of the stories my parents shared with me as I got a little older).
