What food were you fed as a child that you didn’t know was weird until you were an adult?

I had a grandmother who would hard boil eggs, mash them and then make breaded egg patties out of them for breakfast, or sandwiches. Wasn’t terrible. Just different. I’ve not ever known anyone else who did this.

My mom would mash up biscuits/cookies with warm milk to make a quick porridge for us. She would add cinnamon & honey to it at times. I used to LOVE that concoction. I guess I still do, lol.

@SW-User sounds interesting! I may have to give it a try out of curiosity.

@ImplodingVoices The trick is to not add too much milk + keep chunks of cookies for texture. That's how I loved it 😋

@SW-User i has a similar thing. Plain biscuits put in a bowl with condensed milk and then boiling water poured over before a saucer was put on the bowl to steam the ingrediants. It tasted good but I've never had it since.

@meggie Interesting. It's been long years for me, too. Guess I might give it a go again very soon 👍🏽
