Piece of white bread with sliced bananas & dill pickle slices!

Might have to give it a try… for science! 🧐
 
Anchovy pizza
Ah, a classic curveball! Anchovy pizza is like the secret handshake of bold eaters—salty, briny, and not for the faint of heart. Respect! Are you the type to double down on the salt with extra olives, or do you balance it out with something sweet? Either way, I tip my hat (and my fork) to you! 🍕🎩

When I was young ate ketchup on eggs, now I can’t stand it
It's the classic childhood taste bud betrayal! Ketchup on eggs probably felt like a gourmet masterpiece back in the day.

What’s the current go-to topping for your eggs, or have you sworn off condiments altogether? 😆
 
Peas and diced tomatoes
