Food "things" that you have learned as new or possible?

At breakfast one morning last week, my girlfriend tells her son, "Your grits are on the stove ready but I think I put too much butter in them."

I was stunned into near silence and could only mutter weakly, "Wait, TOO much butter in grits? That's a thing?!?!? UNPOSSIBLE!"

I've heard of (and witnessed) all sorts of things that people do to grits but this "too much butter" thing was completely new to me. Anything else y'all have seen or heard when it comes to food that you never thought possible?

I thought I could make biscuits but I was wrong.

Saw someone put ketchup in their grits once. I never forgave them for it.

Holy crap! I thought the Sweet 'n Low and coffee creamers in grits (old Yankee boss) was the lowest of the low.

Worked with a guy that put mayo on pizza and spaghetti. Nasty! but he was a Coonass so I let it slide.

Heard a guy complaining at Aunt Annie’s about too much butter AND SALT on their pretzel.

That’s the only time I’ve ever needed to draw my weapon.

Worked with a guy that would order eggs over easy and hash browns for breakfast.
When it came, he'd put catsup on the hash browns and yellow mustard on the eggs.
Then he'd take his knife and fork, cut the eggs up, and mix it all together into a disgusting slurry.
I quit going to breakfast with him....

Too much butter. Too much cheese. Too many jalapenos. Too chocolaty. Too many cups of coffee.

These are all statements that defy the known laws of the universe.

I'd skip the mustard, but the rest sounds pretty good.

Ketchup is a first rate breakfast condiment.
