You Are Putting What On What Now?

I have no idea why slices of apple dipped in peanut butter work but they absolutely do. I should probably try to remember adding a bit of fruit in the shopping basket as a novelty every now and again ...

@deathrey I've heard of coke milk before but with Pepsi, called "pilk". Can't say it's ever appealed to me.

Another one which I've been mocked for, I once ground up a couple of Oreos into a chicken wrap. It tasted great, but I was rather drunk at the time and haven't dared to try it again.

We had left over Yorkshire puddings with golden syrup as pudding as a child. I would still eat that now to be honest. 

Yep, this was a staple of my youth. I was always told it was a Norfolk thing but guess it made it over the border to Lincs. 

Quite regularly had cold left over "batter puddings" (we don't recognise Yorkshire in Norfolk, obviously) with cheese in for Sunday tea, too.

Coke milk. I thought this was something all Indians drank but discovered as I grew up that this is not the case, just people from my side of Punjab (there is a river that splits Punjab and people on either side of the river have a bit of rivalry - think North/South divide).

Half a glass of Coca Cola, half a glass of milk plus ice, better if it's all whizzed up in a blender. Not something I have very often any more but we would drink copious amounts growing up. I wonder if it was a money saving ploy because Coca Cola was expensive? My side of Punjab is the working class/farmer side, people from the other side are often disgusted at the drink.

We used to have this as children.  My parents were born in East Africa. Neither of them visited India until much later in life. It was dad who'd make the coke milk. It may have just been something he came up with one day. Or it could have been an idea he picked up from a relative. It's not a drink I've ever tried to replicate. Although I do like trying Soda floats whenever I see them on a menu.

Coke milk doesn't sound too far removed from an egg cream (think @wandshogun09 will appreciate it). Milk, carbonated water, syrup, though no eggs.

I only know an egg cream from The West Wing. Soda water, Fox's U-Bet chocolate syrup and milk. I have tried it but couldn't get the authentic chocolate syrup but what I had was very nice.

I mainly remember it from The Sopranos. They were always offering to buy each other one in The Bing.

You've never put chutney on your mungo then?

Nothing as weird as half of you lot, but on the very rare occasions I have cereal I like to put it in the microwave for about a minute.

I ordered what the local pizza place called a 'Swedish pizza' once and it came with boiled potatoes as a topping. Vile.

There's a Lou Reed song about egg creams, I've always thought they sounded revolting, but I would try it, and would also try coke milk.

Along the same lines as @BigJagwith the Red Leicester and salad cream sandwiches, while I like doing that as a midnight snack, I’m also partial to any cheese (we only usually have cheese slices or Red Leicester anyway) with burger sauce on bread or in a wrap 

I also like putting a drizzle of maple syrup on any meaty pizza which adds a nice sugary sweetness to cut through the salty meats

Whenever my mate gets a steak and ale pie or even just a normal steak pie, he pours a cold Guinness into it when cooked. Or any other stout he can find in the shop. He highly recommends it but it’s a hard no from me.

I always put Coleman’s mint sauce on baked beans. Bloody lovely it is.
