Forums → The Tavern → [necro] MBFF - Most Bizarre Food Flavors - 2013 Edition!
| 1287 | 978943 |
Since the popular thread from 2011 has gone to hell with outdated images, false page redirections and 4 blank pages of deleted posts, I think it's time to start anew for the 2012 community.
I'll start out by posting some strange (but real) sodas I found on Google. You can be the ones to determine whether or not you'd ever try any of them.
The label on the last one is real, but the flavor is fake. You'll have to learn the Jones way of doing things.
Chips are another favorite when it comes to bizarre flavors.
^ Those BLT chips are actually not too bad.
And, of course, the Canadian classic...
If you know of any strange flavors or you just happen to find some online, post them here. Pictures are always appreciated.

I see I have a lot of catching up to do with all the pages I've missed, but first, I have to bring up something I saw in one of the game ads... Wonka's Peel-A-Pop.
This is not a banana... and it's not string cheese in wax coating either . This is a popsicle! A popsicle with a peelable gummy outer layer! And I thought Fun Dip was a weird idea...
There's a burrito in my quesadilla.
Of course, you know that has to be a joke, because everyone knows the quesadilla is not a natural predator of the burrito. Thus, it must be a Quesarito.
Taco Bell just released these on Monday. Possibly also available for breakfast in the future.
This is candy available in Britain (don't know about elsewhere) taking the form of a sweet liquid you lick from a gobstopper. The presentation is what makes it odd though:
That color. I wouldn't mind licking something with a brainy consistency, but who would consider eating anything that shade of grey? Anything grey, for that matter.
Someone went a step further and baked cupcakes with detailed brains atop them.
Always remember to eat smart, kids, and that's the way to do it.
Wonka's Peel-A-Pop.
I can't tell if this is a terrible idea, or the most brilliant thing to happen to ice cream since they figured out they could put it in a cone. But wouldn't it be easier to just eat the ice cream and the peel altogether?
The rice in that quesarito looks more like Chipotle rice than Taco Bell rice. I think I smell a rivalry brewing.
That's no accident. The Quesarito has been a part of Chipotle's secret menu for quite some time. If Taco Bell's Quesarito was too different from Chipotle's, the avid fans would just continue get theirs from Chipotle.
Of course, you can always get an Enchirito for only $1.99.

A burrito inside of a quesadilla... it's Tex-Mexception! What will Taco Bell think up next... a burrito that's also an enchilada?!

...I'm already too late.
I had to check the nutrition facts for both of these fusiorritos. The quesarito tops out at about 650 Calories, at least as far as Taco Bell claims, while the enchirito is only at about 340-400. They both contain about 1400-1500 mg of sodium, the equivalent to about one and a half Big Macs (Calorie count: 550).
All I can be sure is, I definitely will not be eating one of those for breakfast!

Looks like a bit of both to me. =)
I always thought these were bizarre...
I still haven't mustered up the courage to actually try them... too weird for me! =P

But it's really good. It's like icecream without the brain freeze because it comes in such tiny pieces.
(apologies if this is huge, i'm bad at adjusting size)In case you can't read that, that says "Basil Seed with Honey Flavor", except my mom told me that those aren't actually basil seeds and she doesn't know how to explain it in English. They're also not fish eggs. At some point during this week I'm going to drink that thing, but not now because I just ate something good and if drinking the thing is going to make me puke I want to not have to deal with the taste of curdled ick.

It looks vile, but apparently the flavor does not match the drink at all. One review actually said it tasted like a banana Laffy Taffy.
Have you ever eaten a Laffy Taffy that looks like this?
Can you name the sausage?
I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say currywurst.
The stick in the sausage made me think of it, as well as that strange brownish-yellow sauce, and to confirm my suspicions, I checked the url of the image.
It turns out the image @09philj posted is that of saveloy with curry sauce, which is ultimately very similar to its German counterpart.
This is so weird that I thought it might be acceptable to post here.
That is indeed weird. The capability of the technology doesn't surprise me, but the idea that people probably spent millions of research dollars to send smells over the phone is truly bizarre.
But the most baffling part of all is that they decided to go with "oPhone" instead of "Smellophone".
Bananas, from that strange lumpy confection?
The beverage does not contain any actual bananas, but for whatever reason, banana flavoring is added.
You can also probably buy banana ketchup in your local Filipino market.
They go great with banana fries.*
*I have never actually tasted either banana fries or banana ketchup, let alone the two together, so I cannot validate the claim that the two would actually taste good together. It's always worth a try, however.
