What weird food or dishes do you eat regularly at home that you would never serve to someone else? (lemmy.world)

I regularly bake sweet potatoes then add plain yogurt, salted peanuts, feta, nutritional yeast, and drown it in hot sauce. The dish has no name nor should it ever see the light of day. What goblin mode meals do you guys eat?

I'm sorry, pickled what now? Is it some obscure vegetable I've never heard about? Or are they like actual bird eyes like from a chicken?

[–] oyenyaaow@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

the wild varieties are really small compared to the cultivated ones, 2 cm or so in length.
