Blood pudding, believe it or not. Basically, you drain blood from a pig, throw in some chili peppers, add a bunch of pork squares and diced onions, bring to a boil until the blood has turned black. Pour on steaming rice and enjoy! Ah, my mouth waters just thinking about it.
Melted peanut butter on hotdog is another favorite. Simply substitute Heinz for Skippy for an unforgettable meal. Each to his own, of course, but don't knock it if you haven't tried it!

Budget Gourmet frozen dinners.
I've never seen anyone else ever buy the things much less subsist off of them, but they got me through college along with Totino's frozen pizzas and Kraft mac and cheese. Dirt cheap, marginally nutritious and unexceptionally bland in taste. My wife won't even let me keep them in the fridge in the kitchen. Yet without them, I'd have starved to death sometime in the middle of my sophomore year.

Two types of Turkey Tacos.
First Type: Refried Beans, Turkey(left over from Thanksgiving works perfect), and shredded cheese on a tortilla.
Second type: Mashed Taters, Turkey(left over from Thanksgiving works perfect), and shredded cheese on a Tortilla.
There are various things that I dip in other various things, but I don't remember what they are right now...

| Yeah, I know what you mean. For two years, I lived on M&C, spaghetti and hamburgers (all I could afford). After the 17th month, I thought I was eating wet cardboard. Liberal doses of ketchup, sauerkraut and mayonaise, however, restored some of the lost flavor.

they have this hot sauce here in southern california called Tapatio (made in Vernon, CA, www.tapatiohotsauce.com ). It's similar to Tabasco (TM) sauce, hot and concentrated, but tastes better to me. This stuff is the cheapest most efficient seasoning available - it's good on tacos, pizza, spaghetti, burritos, cheeseburgers (makes mccraphole's almost taste good), breakfast, french fries, mashed potatoes etc. etc. etc. A 10 oz bottle (which is enough to burn down a medium size apt. building) costs...... $1.00  This stuff is the best antidote to mediocre food.
Now that's not a food that I like that nobody else likes, au contraire everyone I know likie tapatio.

During my first semester of college(when I was living by myself), I lived on one Calzone(from the Snack Bar) a day 5 days a week. Every 2-3 days, I'd go to Taco Bell and have a few tacos for dinner. Rarely did I eat anything on the weekends.

| Ahhh yess!!! Quite similar to Filipino food which is a specialty in my mother's province. We call it Dinuguan, roughly translated "cooked with blood". However, aside from the blood we mix it with coconut milk.
Darn it, EMINEM, you ARE making me homesick, not to mention savagely hungry just thinking what I'm missing.
Sorry though since I cannot come up with some food that only I like (hence, people may find it strange). In my family, I love eating sweet mango with rice. Only thing is, I don't think that any of my relatives would find it weird.

I come from the land of blood pudding (black pudding) and I can't stand the stuff.
Poutine? I got a taste for this dish whilst in Quebec.
Fries with gravy and cheese curds. Mmmmm. | | |

| | Gaaahh! Blood pudding is an international plague!  I had hoped it hadn't spread further than Sweden and Scotland
Melted peanut butter and hot dogs must be tried out  Turkey tacos sounds delicious
What is poutine?
The food I like nobody else seems to enjoy is smoked herring.

| Herring is a rather fat fish, and it is salted before smoked. It is smoked with warm smoke, so it gets very soft and with a distinct "smoky" taste - imagine a crossing between barbecued taste and the smell of burnt wood. Hmm, it's so difficult to describe tastes!
