Am I the only one who likes burnt food?

[SDFgirl]

Well, not burnt exactly, but very, very well-done? I like my pizza, bagels, lasagna, bacon, etc...almost charred. My hamburgers must be well done, even a little crispy on the outside is good.

I'm sitting here eating my almost-black bagel (mmmmmm good!) and wondering if I'm alone in my preference.

I loved burned scalloped potatoes!!!! Why is that? Do you think it's something the body is craving because it needs?

 

[Marseeya]

Me too! It drives my family nuts. For me it has to be "just so." When I fry an egg, I make sure the edges are crispy. My steaks are charred on the outside.

One thing I haven't been able to get right is French toast. My mom always made them so they were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I can't get them crispy -- they either completely burn or don't get cooked enough.

My usual saying when someone in cooking for me is "kill it" so yes I love a lot of my food burnt. Your not alone on this.

Add my sister to the list. If a hot dog is recognizable then it is not done!!

Personally, I like it when the cow is still mooing!

 

[AMClvsMKY]

Dh and I are pretty much both like that - marshmallows and hot dogs especially.

 

[DisneyForLife]

I totally understand the hotdog being unrecognizable. I have to slice them in half before I "kill it". They are black all over.

My husband is like this with certain foods, hot dogs being one of them.

Nope, youre not alone - me too.

I am like that, hamburgers well done--no pink for me. Some of the other ones are pork chops, bacon and frozen pizza.

I'm with you on the bagel! For some reason, while I don't like any other food to be too burnt, I have to eat my bagels black. Weird! Once I caught my husband trying to be "helpful" by scraping off the charred bits because they are "carcinogenic" but, hey, he hasn't made that mistake again. LOL.

My DH likes brunt food! I think it is awful!!! BLECH!!!!!!!!

 

[Beth76]

I like cheesey (like pizza and lasagna) things to be very done, not quite burned though. But crunchy definitely. Bagels and meat, no way. I like my meat to be ever-so-slightly-pink.

 

[gris gris]

I love burnt food! I can often be found picking the burnt cheese off the sides of a lasagne pan The only meat I eat is chicken and even then it must be charred. Glad to hear I'm not alone!

 

[Poohnatic]

Crispy, you just like them very crispy!

I like pizza, bacon and corned beef hash very crispy...so very well done. I also love burnt marshmallows.

My dad has always said he likes burnt food. I thought he was kidding!

I can only eat steaks and hamburgers well done.

 

[mickeyfan2]

I love burned lasagna noodles.

 

[goofy's friends]

Love it !! Haven't read all the posts, but it drives DH crazy. I love burnt marshmallows, bacon, and the edges of the pepperoni on pizza. Burnt hot dogs is the only way to eat them!! Have you had burnt popcorn---love that too.

 

[HoneyPooh]

My DH laughs at me because I always put my bag of popcorn in the micro for 4 minutes. Just enough to make some of it "dark" but not burned enough to smell up the house.

I also like my bacon and pepperoni almost burned. And Sunday I had an everything bagel that I overtoasted by accident and have decided it was better that way.

Hotdogs? Why put them on the grill when you can put them directly in the fire?! I wouldn't be caught dead eating a BOILED hotdog, yuck!

Burnt food is an aquired taste

I personally love it!
