Foods you grew up on

[Scary_Bob]

Chicken and mango chutney sandwiches, wouldn't eat any other sandwich fillers for years.

 

[sequio]

green vegetables. Maybe i'm crazy but they taste delicious now for some reason.

Coca-Cola. Seriously, why haven't I gone into cardiac arrest yet?

Also I used to make these things I called power smoothies. Basically, they were bananas, milk, maple syrup, ice cream, honey and vanilla essence blended and then drunk. I thought they made me stronger. I was seven.

I grew up on cherry pepsi.(What can I say? I like cherry pepsi over cherry cola.)

I also grew up on chicken, which isn't a bad thing seeing as how dense in nutrition it is; I didn't eat any other meat besides chicken until about age 7ish when I had a hamburger.

Haha I also really really like broccoli and cheese... Not that that is too weird but yeah I love em.

 

[Ronwue]

A whole lot of the usual stuff. And a few things specific to my country that I could not name.

 

[pantsoffdanceoff]

Spam, my Dad won every single Spam cooking competition he cared to go to.

 

[Wislong]

Hula-Hoops, cheese and raisins.

All on one plate.

Craving it now.

 

[Grimm91]

Mac and cheese.

 

[Bored Tomatoe]

Milk and Pizza,
Milk and Chili,
Milk and Hotwings...Although that isn't what I grew up on, it is just what I do now.

 

[RufusMcLaser]

I love a pizza with pineapple and extra cheese- no other toppings. Aside from being tasty, it has the added benefit of being repulsive to everyone else.

No, I'm not some style of vegetarian. I like pizzas piled with bison and roast ox, too.

 

[Lord Beautiful]

BBQ, and I mean REAL smoked BBQ, not that store bought shit.

Damn straight.

I grew up in the UP, so food was limited. Tuna-noodle Cassarole was a big deal, as were my Grandmothers pancakes. Thankfully, I've moved away from there and now live in a place where I can get REAL food

Sorry for the ignorance, but what is "the UP"? Google was disappointingly useless here, unless growing up in the upper peninsula of Michigan is somehow different from everywhere else...

Bingo-bango, that's what the UP is! The UP is a desolate place, not unlike the Wastelands of Fallout 3. Yes, we had our fair share of wild game, but when it came to wordly foods, we lacked quite a bit. Lets put it this way, I was born in 83, and we didn't get cable TV until 1990. If that doesn't show you how far behind we were, I'm not sure what will...
