my question about eggs on hamburgers raises another question!

Hey, gang, I'm dead serious - I have been amazed at the number of responses by all of you eggers who love and regularly top your burgers with eggs. I had no idea that is such a popular condiment! OK - maybe I have lived much of my life under a rock, but I wonder what other foods or ways to cook foods or combinations are out there that are "common" and you just assume all the rest of the world does the same! SEE...my eyes were opened about the egg topping and now I wonder what else I have been missing!
In that egg thread there were a couple comments about adding peanut butter and another about figs. It didn't look like those responses caused any pile ons like the egg question did. Care to stick your neck out and say - "hey, BTW doesn't EVERYBODY use this or that or whatever?"

Not necessarily egg related, but grape jelly and /or maple syrup on a pile of biscuits, egg, bacon/sausage and sawmill gravy. The wife thinks I'm weird, but she doesn't mix foods cause she's a freak.

My family doesn't use butter on their corn on the cob. We use Best Foods Mayonnaise . I remember being at summer camp one year. It was dinner time, they're re serving corn on the cob. I remember the kids standing in line and a guy with a bucket was brushing butter on the cob. When I got to the front I asked 'hey, where's the mayonnaise?' Everyone looked at me and laughed. I kinda played it off. In reality I thought everyone used mayonnaise. To this day, butter on corn on the cob just doesn't sound right. In fact, I find it disgusting.I've slow smoked and eaten so much pork, I'm legally recognized as being part swine - Chatsworth Ca.

Ok im going to step out on a limb. I put smoked oysters and sardines on my pizza with green olives and feta. I like poached eggs runny yolk on a good mesculin salad. I eat hot biscuits with molasses. I prefer raw clams over raw oysters. A grilled cheese sandwich with gouda camembert and steamed broccoli on sourdough is killer.Columbus, Ohio--A Gasser filled with Matchlight and an Ugly Drum.

I had a manager once that always put ketchup on his potato salad.
I like squid jerky, it's a common Korean snack. Picked it up from being stationed in Korea. I also like most Korean foods, where as some people can never past the smell of kimchee.
The only way I like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches is open faced, on toast, and the jelly has to be orange marmalade. The melted peanut butter and orange marmalade is to die for IMO.
I prefer to make my Top Ramen, not as a soup, but as a stir-fry noodle.
Cook the noodles in water as directed, while noodles are cooking, melt butter in a frying pan with about 1/2 of the flavor packet dumped in. when noodles are done, drain, then stir-fry in the flavored butter. It's very yummy.
And I love raw beef. When slicing a London Broil to make jerky with, not all of the slices of London Broil end up in the marinade.
I guess what I'm getting at, is these are things I do, but I have no pre-conceived notion that these are things that "everybody does".
Oh, a few more, when I was kid and would get hired as a babysitter, and would be told "Sorry, we don't have any food for you to snack on", my thoughts always were, "you have no idea". I didn't care if there was no potato chips, or peanuts, or popcorn. I always could find some raw spaghetti noodles, box of brown sugar, box of Cheerios, or some other delectable staple in the cabinets.

There is a place in town that does a cheese steak and egg sandwich. I wasn't sure about it at first, then I tried it. OMG that is a good sandwich!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dill in mac n cheese is magical. I like to eat raw stuff, almost like a someone with pica loves laundry starch. Carpaccio, sushi, sashimi, tartar, runny eggs, f-yeah. Also veggies. Fish sauce is killer on all kinds of food. Anchovies - yum. I'm a sick puppy, but that's how I roll. And I love stinky cheese. Stinkier the better. Raw cured meat, hellz yeah. I need to move out to the Italian country side.

Never done this but I was watching DDD the other night and a chef added cooked brisket into his ground beef before making the patties. Interesting concept. Maybe I should do that with PB and eggColumbia, SC --- LBGE 2011 -- MINI BGE 2013

I'm a fairly recent convert to a fried egg on my burger. Like, within the last two years. My kids were horrified at first, but that's the only way they'll eat it now.
Im a huge PB fan, but on my burger? I haven't mustered the courage yet. Someday.
This is thread about strange food combos is very interesting though! A Nebraska tradition that I grew up with is to serve chili with cinnamon rolls, instead of the more traditional cornbread or tortillas. I thought it was completely normal until I entered a chili cook off in San Antonio. I got laughed at, and placed dead last. The sweet/savory combo is awesome. IN fact, our regional restaurant Runza, still serves chili that way.
I'd try kimchee and grilled cheese sandwiches. And mayo on corn on the cob sounds awesome. Yes, I put ketchup on scrambled eggs!

Grape jelly on a sausage biscuit. Heard a couple of people order in line before and had to try it. Can't imagine having one without it now. Potatoe chips on a sandwich is also a keeper.

First off an egg on a burger is great, now son dips about everything in ketchup, broccoli or other veggies. Now the wife likes to have things separate and doesn't put spaghetti sauce on spaghetti or Chinese food over rice she eats it all separate. That's strange to me.XL, WSM, Coleman Road Trip Gas GrillKansas City, Mo.

You know the saying, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Some southern folk fooled me once into trying grits. I prefer not to shame myself.
Another example. I occasionally was forced to eat beef liver by my parents when growing up. Later in life as an adult, someone lied to me and told me I should try chicken livers, that they are completely different. So I tried them, effing liar, they had the exact same gross texture and tasted of internal body fluids, just like beef liver. Never, ever, again will I try liver. Those who like foie gras, you can have it, I will never try ordering it.

Will, this certainly fits into the "that sounds dumb" category ... in Japan, the "Chicago Pizzeria", put corn on their pizza ... it's really rather good.

All this chatter about grits surprises me. Every time I was out for breakfast when down South I used to always order grits. I don't ever remember getting any bad ones!
