Favorite and peculiar Culinary Guilty Pleasures!

As I was stuffing my face, I realized that the things with which I was stuffing it may be peculiar (and certainly pleasantly guilty): a baguette smeared with the chocolate buttercream frosting from VCTOTW. What's yours?

That sounds tasty!

I love peanut butter and pickle sandwiches. Open faced with creamy pb and sweet pickles. I don't know that it's a guilty pleasure but it is a bit peculiar.

Is it terrible that I want to try a pb and pickle sammich now?

No! I think that's why I started this thread - though I ain't knowed it at the time.

Try it! They are so good. My mom used to make them for me when I was a kid. I eat them whenever I'm feeling sad and lonely.

I hate sweet pickles, but I can forgive you because it makes sense.

My dad used to smear leftover frosting on graham crackers as a special treat! Not so far off from a baguette. And not weird at all, wonderful.

I will be happy to eat a PB & P with you anytime.

At the salad bar, I save my gherkin for dessert. I definitely have to get a jar and try it with PB now!

My grandparents (who were from France), used to make me a special snack with a piece of baguette, spread with a little butter and a chunk of dark chocolate. Now we make them minus the butter, though they would probably be yummy with a little Earth Balance too. Bread plus chocolate equals yum!

i've never had a pb and pickle sammich, but i love savory oatmeal with peanut butter, pickles (i like mine sour, not sweet though) or sauerkraut, a bit of pickle or kraut juice mixed in, salt and pepper. some veggies are good in there, as well.

That's the oatmeal they serve in Hell. Just reading that made me queasy!

Pasta and tomato ketchup. It's so wrong, but sometimes it's so tasty.

Handful of chocolate chips + dandies marshmallow slathered in Biscoff spread. Delicious sugar overload.

Not my guilty pleasure, but a lot of people put ketchup on pizza.
I can't picture ketchup on anything that isn't a burger, a hot dog or something like that. Sorry for my squareness!

Pickle as in chutney or pickle as in gherkin? Either way: yes. Throw in a little English mustard with that.

Recently, I've been really into dipping salt and vinegar crips into chocolate pudding/custard. Gross, but so good.

"butter" and sweet pickle sammies are my favorite. although i do love to make walnut-brown rice sausages and smear them with grape jelly & yellow mustard. so yum!

nickvicious · **Posted:** Tue Dec 13, 2011 11:57 am

It's going to have to be the veggie burger and fries for me. Old habits die hard.

I will on occasion eat a handful of fermented Chinese black beans. Like marmite, but texture!

I freeze leftover chocolate buttercream frosting (the very same one you're all eating on bread and stuff) and then I eat it with a spoon. Like ice cream.

potato chips dipped in some spicy mustard - huge guilty pleasure, especially if the chips are really salty

Take it a step further and add some mayo and onions to it. It tastes good, I swear! (At least I think so) I know other people who eat pb and mayo sandwiches. Maybe it's a southern thing.
