Most revolting things you did/ate as a child
What is the most disgusting thing you ate as a child? I used to eat raw bacon rind, that nasty bone bit you used to get in bacon, the innards from sausages (despite my mum telling me they were 'made from baby birds' - like that made any difference) and her lipsticks....

I would like to add that I did not continue any of these revolting habits into adulthood - I just abuse cup a soups now since re-embarking on single life, and nothing living, sentient or otherwise ever went into those :)

When I was a toddler
my mother was appalled to discover my friend Charlie and me sat on the floor in the meat aisle of Waitrose sucking the juice out of joints of raw bacon. We'd bitten off the corners of vacuum packs. Repulsive but true.

Thus began a lifelong association with charlie and sucking on joints, ho ho.

Is this another euphemism?

Dimmock - Charlie - elbow - joint.

Or Google 'Ground Force' to see the bra-less, slack-titted, ginger gardener in all her 'glory'.

tenuous reference, but what did you expect for midnight on a school day?

I drank a whole bottle of Windolene when I was 3 or 4
The colour and consistency were exactly like strawberry milkshake. It tasted hideous but my infant logic kept telling me, "The next mouthful will taste better".
I still haven't learned.........

This is true.
I keep telling her that "the next mouthful will taste better". Now I'm being whacked on the head, and not in a good way :(

My mother has told me the story
Of how when she was a child, her and her best friend would sit by the road on hot days and pick the dried chewing gum off the tarmac and eat it. Surprisingly, she's turned out fairly normal.

Me, I just used to eat salt straight from the shaker.
(Applebite Uh! A cow!, Wed 31 Mar 2010, 0:19, Reply)

My family were recently discussing my childhood penchant for this salt thing.
They often found me with a whole palmful of salt, licking it off.

When I was a lad
I was out poaching on the bishop's grounds. I'd just snared a big hare when the bishop came running over to the woodland where I was hiding. I ducked down behind a bush and the bishop lifted his cassock and produced an almight shyte right in front of me, completely unaware that I was there. I slit open the hare and for a larf, dumped the hares guts on top of the steaming heap of turds.
My dad saw the bishop later that day and asked how he was. The bishop was looking rather peaky and told him, "Well I think the Mother's Union forced me to eat to many fairy cakes and as a result I was forced to jump in the bushes to answer the call of nature. When I looked down to see what I had done, as you do, I was horrified to see that I had excreted all my guts too". My dad was shocked and asked him what on earth he had done about it. The bishop replied, "Well first of all I prayed and with God's good grace and the ease of my stick, I managed to get them all back up again".

I liked to eat lemons.
Not too shocking, I suppose... meh.

The most disgusting thing I had to eat, courtesy of the Jello Salad Cookbook? This. Somewhat in defense of my parents, it was the early 70s and cocktail parties were still in vogue, so they weren't really in their right minds... but never will I forget that. Worse: it had tomato juice in it as well.

Enjoy your breakfast over there.

I eat lemons
Nice with salt and vinegar

They're not lemons, they are crisps.

Nope
When I was 17 my girlfriend had a crazy sicilian grandmother.
This was one of her suggestions.
Lemon. Peel to the pith, leaving the 'nobbles' unpeeled as 'handles'.
Poke into each half with a knife and pour some salt onto the holes you've made.
Put in a bowl of vinegar, open side down.
While semi-submerged, squeeze then let go so that some lemon juice escapes and some vinegar is sucked in.
Bite and be surprised and how nice it is.
Repeat.
Eventually you will be left with a bowl of salty vinegary lemony juice that you may drink or discard. I drink.
It rocks.

Do not eat her pickled cactus.

That sounds weird enough to try...
Don't know if I'd drink the salty vinegary lemon juice, but I'll try most things once.

Can I just take a moment to point out the apparently naked photo of yourself in your photo?
I mean, you might not have noticed it, it would be terribly embarasing should one day you accidently click on your name and are greated with apparently naked photo of yourself. Personally, if that happened to me, I'm unaware as to how I would react. On the one hand, I'm deeply ashamed and embarased by my own body, to the point where I have to wear swimming trunks in the shower and when I get changed in the morning (in my bedroom, alone), I cover a towel around myself. On the other hand, it would be liberating to show my body to everyone, take the flack that pursude, and then know that everyone else knows and I won't have anything to hide any more, at least, in respect to my apparently naked body.

The apparently, how do you kid's say, "Wacky Backy Massive Drugz", would also do the same job in regard to my crippling opiat addiction.

My mother once wandered into the kitchen to find my toddler-aged sister
eating the cat's food.

The cat was not impressed and demanded to know what my mother was going to do about this.

Isued to drink limeade or orangeade with milk in.
So that it curled and looked like coloured sick. I enjoyed it apparently. *Boke*
