At first when I first read it, it sounded gross but then I thought about it and it is an Orange Julius.</p> <p>I like taking some white rice and adding some milk and sugar. It's like cereal. </p> <p>Like others have mentioned, I love beefaroni and mini ravoli Chef Boyardee and I love Kraft Mac and cheese. </p> <p>I do remember eating bread with sugar on top. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weird-childhood-concoctions-you-still-like-to-eatdrink/page/2#post-48572 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 00:53:50 +0000 Wagon Sr. 48572@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cream cheese and jelly sandwiches on whole wheat (because, you know, whole wheat is a healthy choice). </p> <p>Been eating them since kindergarten. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weird-childhood-concoctions-you-still-like-to-eatdrink/page/2#post-48569 Sat, 07 Jan 2012 00:39:55 +0000 SugarplumsMom 48569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OK, I read more and now I'm really hungry!!!

AND Presidents Choice white macaroni (with broccoli added). My mom was a typical working mom, and while she cooked most of the time, these dishes were our 'treats' - things we could eat when Dad worked late, or when we had a babysitter. </p> <p>When DH goes out of town, I buy at least one of these things and indulge...but hide the boxes because he thinks they're disgusting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weird-childhood-concoctions-you-still-like-to-eatdrink/page/2#post-48495 Fri, 06 Jan 2012 21:41:43 +0000 katdevargas 48495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tina: that made me laugh out loud </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weird-childhood-concoctions-you-still-like-to-eatdrink/page/2#post-48491 Fri, 06 Jan 2012 21:35:49 +0000 mrs. wagon 48491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just read this whole thread to Rob Sr. and he is about to throw up.

In middle school I ate hot lunch from the cafeteria quite often. One of my favorite meals was baconburgers and tater tots. When I started eating out on my own in college, I was so puzzled when I would order a baconburger and it would be a burger with bacon strips on top. "What is this crap??" I would say. "It's just a burger with bacon on top." To me, since middle school, a baconburger has been a bun with a patty that looks like a burger, but tastes like bacon. No bacon strips on top. </p> <p>After much discussion and reflection (and a LOT of googling with no results) I came to the conclusion that the cafeteria made our baconburgers by sprinkling meat patties with bacon bits and then cooking them. I came to this conclusion because I once made the mistake of getting a BLT and it turned out to be a bacon bit and mayo sandwich... disgusting. So the cafeteria must have wanted to make baconburgers but had no bacon... so they used bacon bits.</p> <p>Those baconburgers were AWESOME. My mouth is watering. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weird-childhood-concoctions-you-still-like-to-eatdrink/page/2#post-48280 Fri, 06 Jan 2012 15:52:08 +0000 cyneswith 48280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Boogs: Your sloppy joes and mac and cheese mix sound like the bane of my army food experience - chili mac. It was never quite hot and they always gave me a heaping plateful, and my drill sergeants would make me eat the whole blasted thing (I put on 20 lbs in basic training.)</p> <p>My mom liked to mix peanut butter and maple syrup (specifically green label Karo.) She also made peanut butter, bacon bit, and jelly sandwiches which are AWESOME! She also did butter and salt tortillas (we had a lot of condiment sandwiches for a few years.) My dad made all sorts of weird food that none of us really liked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weird-childhood-concoctions-you-still-like-to-eatdrink/page/2#post-48265 Fri, 06 Jan 2012 15:45:16 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 48265@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@boogs @rubies Oh yeah, I love Chef Boyardee!
