When I worked at Subway, there was a woman who would get the BLT, but she'd want us to put the bacon in the toaster oven and literally burn it. As in, like, turn it into charcoal. One time I left it in until it was nothing but black dust and tiny glowing red embers, and she said it was the best she'd ever had.
As for the strangest thing that's actually good, I think my tuna sandwich takes that one: flatbread, tuna, pepper jack cheese, double extra bacon, lettuce, spinach, onions, tomatoes, one line of mayo, one line of sweet onion sauce, one line of roasted garlic aioli.
I personally don't think that's too far out there, but everyone I mention it to thinks I'm nuts 🤷♂️
When I was in my 20s, I would ask for two whole hands of jalapeños on a sub. Well, my catcher’s-mitt-sized hands, that is. Along with all the normal fixin’s. Like, the jalapeños would make up more than half of each sub’s non-bread contents.
And I would frequently eat two of these monstrosities in a single sitting.
I would often have the staff put more and more on because as Filipino ladies, their hands were tiny AF, and they couldn’t imagine eating subs like that. So they were always starting out with 10-20 slices scattered along the entire sub and I was like, “NO. Grab an entire fistful. As much as you can grab. Put that on one end. Then repeat three more times along the sub.”
I mean, I could likely still have that amount of jalapeños on a sub. But I would be stuffed after just one sub, these days. The hollow leg of my youth vanished during my fifth decade, and I’ve been inconsolable ever since.
Damn. That doesn't sound too "weird," per se, but I do mourn for your digestive tract.
Was she pregnant?

She was not pregnant, but she may have been suffering from some deficiency - nutritional or otherwise
Cool, TIL it's called pica. My grandma apparently had that as she was pregnant with my mom, she would eat pieces of mortar that had fallen off of buildings...
I mean it's a little odd having both lettuce and spinach i guess, but the sandwich sounds totally normal to me., and maybe something I'd order.
Goldmember, but with green instead of gold
They call him The Green Thumb
I prefer The Green Inferno
I have an unlimited toppings pizza place near me, and my new GoTo has been my own take on a Hawaiian. Either salami or Canadian bacon (they have no prosciutto), bacon, pineapple, roasted garlic, red onion, and a balsamic drizzle, on top of mozzarella and asiago. I imagine many would consider that weird, but it is divine, and I'm clearly a culinary genius.
Sounds pretty good to me. Might try to get my local place to try this.
What's nuts in your recipe ? sounds delicious.
🤷♂️
I made that exact sandwich for myself all the time when I worked at subway, only difference is I used sriracha instead of aoli
EW WHAT THE FUCK
:-p
My go to was sauce from the meatballs, chicken, bacon, onions, peppers, shredded cheese x2, toasted twice for footlong or toasted for footlong if 6in. Italian seasoning.
Rings up as a chicken bacon ranch and costs half what it'd cost to add the toppings to a chicken, and you end up with a pretty good pizza.
Sounds pretty good to me, except for the spinach (though tbh I probably wouldn't notice it with all that other stuff).
It is good. Try it.
