What is your weird food treat?
Discussion
I bought a jar of sliced gherkins a few days ago to put in a sandwich - Roast beef, cheese, tomato and gherkin, to be precise. Then, once the beef ran out, I had a gherkin sandwich. Then the bread ran out and now I'm snacking on the things straight out the jar.
I feel like I'm slowly going crazy, but they're so good.

Also... Chuckie Egg. Had it as a kid, still sometimes make it as an adult. Take a still warm hard boiled egg (or two), peel and place in a cup with a large knob of butter, then attack with a knife until you have coarse eggy, buttery paste. Salt liberally, give it a stir, then eat straight from the cup with a teaspoon. So simple, yet utterly delicious!

I'm not a big fan of Marmite, but I do love to take some toast, butter it liberally, then spread it with Bovril. A few slices of that with a massive mug of tea... breakfast of kings 
+1 much prefer bovril on toast, on cheese on toast and on heavily buttered toasted crumpets than marmite.

That sounds good. May try spreading on a slice of crusty loaf.redtwin said:
Bread and butter...the weird bit is that I find such a common combination a treat. 
I love a poppy seed cracker with salted butter spread on it. Doesn't even need cheese. Throw in some crumbly, acidic Lancashire though, and I'm in heaven. 
I always keep real butter on hand for such occasions.

I tried a savaloy dip the other day. Seriously filthy. Wasn't all that keen on that.
Dipped in what?An example of which can be found on the website of the very store I got it from...

Similar, but with a runny soft boiled egg or two. Piece of buttered toast with marmalade, cut into little squares and tossed about with the egg, either in a large mug, or a bowl. Yum indeed!TameRacingDriver said:
