Weekend Cook and Tell: Anchovies

my boyfriend and i have just come back from a camping trip - where most of his food intake were anchovies straight out of the can. with nothing else!
He also says he craves it most of the time, like a NEED not a want.
haha! Does anyone else get that?

'What We Eat When We Eat Alone'

i love just cooking whatever is in my fridge to minimum edible level and eating them all together.
for example, for dinner tonight i had two fried eggs, steamed broccoli, raw sugar snap peas, sauted mushrooms in balsamic vinegar and some grilled halloumi.
all in one giant bowl cradled in my arm while shovelling it into my mouth watching House episodes. bliss!

Speakin' of kimchi: How do you store yours?

*hands up* we used to have two fridges too when i lived at home!
but now, living in london with just one tiny fridge, i keep kimchi in a flimsy tupperware...

my poor scottish fiance has to live with all his dairy products smelling like kimchi but he doesn't mind too much.
and all our friends know to expect the smell hitting you like a brick wall when opening the fridge! (i like my kimchi pretty matured.)

i guess keeping it in a screw top glass jar will be the most smell proofing method.

Does kimchi go bad?

in traditional ways, they used to make kimchi in giant earthernware vats to last through the winters, so there is no harm in eating MONTHS old kimchi! (as i used to at my gran's in korea)
although, as mentioned above, it may taste quite vinegary, but i personally love sour kimchi.

i buy bags of freshly made 'green' kimchi and leave it on the kitchen counter over night to ripen.

This probably sounds a bit crazy but I make nachos with anchovies (in olive oil). Actually, I made this for dinner tonight. Otherwise, the nachos are pretty normal.

ShawnaAdora had it right...and I guess we're the only ones....

MIRACLE WHIP right from the jar! I eat it sprinkled with black pepper. If I feel fancy, I spread it on crackers!
Cold Chef Boyardee ravioli's from the can ( a childhood vice)
Peanut butter
Eagle Brand milk
Garlic stuffed olives captured with a fork

@Traveller - you MUST have been upset. I can't imagine eating a jar of grainy mustard by itself! No, capers would be my choice, I love em.

BTW, congratulations on getting that dissertation over and to an old broad like myself, a "B" sounds pretty damned good.

From Talk

I eat ______ out of the tin/jar/bottle...

Peanut Butter; Olives; Pickles; Baked Beans; Chef Boyardee; Condensed Soup; Vegetables; Ice Cream; & Almost anything that doesn't require removal from the container for cooking. If it's cooked or sufficiently prepared in the container, I'll eat it right from said container.

I love to eat my own canned whole tomato's a quart size, right out of the jar. Reminds me of my mom and grandma and the farm in Ohio, great comfort and memory food for me. coco

When my sister & I went backpacking around Europe we were on a VERY limited budget... many times we arrived by bus in our next foriegn city, late at night, hungry & unfamiliar. I remember eating peas & corn cold out of the can after shopping at the 24-hour food mart in Barcelona... Dining on red wine & dark chocolate and jumping on the beds in our Paris hotel room... Eating Brie out of the package with a Swiss Army knife... Popping Pringles & chugging Fruitopia at 6am after a night of dancing & drinking in London...

Definately pints of icecream, gelato, sorbet, etc, many nights watching movies with my best friend, or doing a late-night "icecream run" with my sister & splitting a litre of Oreo...

I used to bake peanut butter cookies & eat them out of the pan

Pickles, pickled beets, pickled onions, relish, sauerkraut, olives, salsa, pasta sauce, condensed tomato soup, curried spinach, mushy peas, pie filling, peanut butter, jam, whipped topping, salad dressing, eggless mayonnaise, ketchup, bbq sauce... and yes, margarine...

PS I'm totally underweight, so I can justify eating an "entire" anything, including bags of cookies, a McCain cake, a frozen cream pie :)

@dixisue, I like pb & mayo sandwiches, no matter what kind of breat I have, also occasionally add a few slices of ripe banana on that...if out of pb, sit there with banana slices on a plate, each one gets a small blobette of mayo, also good this way on a Ritz cracker.

otherwise, out of can or jar it's:
tuna, drained or undrained
Bush's beans, or B&M, best tasting IMO
Spag/MB from the can, so easy now with the zip-off tops!
uncondensed cream of broccoli or cream of chicken soup
HAVE to taste at least 2 tbl of any new jar spaghetti sauce
herring in cream sauce, or just plain pickled w/onions
sardines, in hot sauce, mustard or oil
salmon from a can, also love to drink the "juice"
pickles from a jar

Smoked Oysters.
Pickled Herring in Cream Sauce.
Bread&Butter Sandwich Stacker Pickles.

Peanut butter, Cool whip, baked beans, dill pickles, chocolate cake frosting, and ice cream. A lot of times I'll dip chocolate chip cookies in the Cool whip or the chocolate cake frosting.

After reading 169 comments, all I can say is: I am so happy to not be the only person on the planet who eats like this!

Oh my, these were hilarious!

I personally love to drink any Olive juice out of the jar or can. It's my Mom's fault, and I'm sticking to it.

After visiting Buenos Aires, Dulce de Leche (like katylesser) is another fave!

Traveller, I hope your Director changed his mind. That seems unfair to me.

I keep a tub of Betty Crocker ready to use vanilla and chocolate frosting in my fridge for that moment when I want something sweet.. just a spoonful or 2, sometimes 3 is all it takes. Best comfort food.. a jar of peanut butter and a bottle of Welches squeeze grape jelly. a spoonful of peanut buttter with a dollop of jelly on top.. heaven..

Whipped cream out of the can, banana peppers, peanut butter, and back in the day, apple butter... mmmm... :)

Also wanted to add congrats to surviving your defense Traveller (even though your director was being difficult). I defended my Master's thesis in the fall of 2006 (after having to take an extra semester to make the changes to it that my committee required - UGH, they were insanely nitpicky) and I remember very well how stressful it was! I was 38 weeks pregnant during my defense, so at that point, I was pretty much daring them to find anything to critique, LOL. Anyway, kudos for all your hard work!

I eat ______ out of the tin/jar/bottle...

Wickles Spicy Bread and Butter pickles, Vienna Sausages, Green Giant Mexicali Corn...and I am not ashamed to admit I will mess up a can of Spaghettio's in a heartbeat. When I was younger I used to eat Chef Boyardee Beefaroni, cold, out of the can too.

Thanks to a friend, I "drink" applesauce straight from the jar -- no spoon required! It really does taste best this way. :)
