Fair enough! I like peanut butter and pickle sandwiches, and have tried Peanut butter and radishes, but I've never tried an onion one. Raw onion? Or do you cook them first?

Mmmmmm Marmite . . . . . Must have some on my bacon sandwiches tomorrow morning.

Never thought of using it as anything else other than for food though.

An ex gf of mine was babysitting and made the girl Marmite on toast. My ex loved the stuff and she spread it on really thick (the way she liked it) and the little girl took one bite and cried as it was that strong. The girl never touched the stuff again.

Personally I love it, but my wife hates it and wants it out the house.

Marmite, the num that keeps on giving. Mentioning it in a forum thread comes with a guarantee it'll be picked up and mentioned by others, such is its power, and I bet it could kick the crap out of Chuck Norris too. :)

No yuck here! When I was a teenager my favourite sandwich had PB and onions in it... peanut butter, baloney, chopped onion, processed cheese (melted), HP sauce and mayo (mixed) on Viennese bread. Mm-mmm good.

Peanut Butter and Marmite sammiches are nummy.

Word. For me, the saltiness contrasts nicely with sweeter (American-style) PBs especially. I like 'em toasted, with cheese and onion usually.

Speaking of Marmite... (had to look it up, I thought it sounded like some kind of bug first. ;) ) Weathering

Classic, who needs hairspray?! (Actually PVA should work too, with less potential issues.)

Never understood the term guilty pleasure. If you like something, why feel guilty for it? Any shows, or games, or foods, etc i like...I like them. Do i care if anyone else likes it or what others think? nope. Do others lives really truly directly affect me in their choices? for most part, no....

so the term itself really shouldn't have any meaning...

Yeah, I see what you mean...but it does work well for what it describes. There are lots of little things that I like or do that one wouldn't go around touting about. So, maybe 'secret' pleasure would be a better term...although that seems to have a creepy connotation to it.

Driving the night car.

I don't feel guilty about this, but, I know that I should spend my time a little more constructively! I've become a MW2 online addict! And play 4/5 hours late at night on a Skype conference call with my teammates rushing around the Call Of Duty 6 maps. I also like to drink beer or whisky while playing and smoke ciggas. One good thing that's come out of this though, is my Chinese has improved heaps. All my teammates are Taiwanese, and we communicate mostly in Mandarin Chinese! This is cool! But yeah ~ I'd better get back into painting soon! Or I may never paint again!

TV: House Psych and Bleach (the thing I most long for really, when is it going to end!!!!)

Music: My latest guilty pleasure will be Construcdead, not really a great band but thats why its rather guilty... Oh and Debauchery, goregrind and Brutal Deathmetal seems to finally take my fancy, i usually only go for the older stuff and Jazz.

Food: Emil's Mofo Eggsalad sandwiches, my own creation basically eggsalad with bacon and a spicy meat (salami or something) slapped on two pieces of toast! Oh, Louisiana Hot sauce is epic on hamburgers!

Drink: Except Mountain dew code red, coffe and regular coca cola its usually of alcoholic nature and Ale has taken my fancy lately.

Books: Frankenstein by Mary Shelley is a wonderful book, but its mainly my school literature that i read, so its alot of philosophy, but I have The satanic verses by Salman Rushdie waiting, dont know if its good, but I hope.

Games: Well, I should say castlevania but Dracula keeps beating me, so thats not fun... I want to get into a RPG group, that would be sweet. So no games for me at the moment.

Random: Taking up the instruments again, hoping a new town will provide me the pleasure of being in a band that actually plays the music I like! Thats about it.

Fun Nazi ;P .....

butter, spread thick on top of a brownie for breakfest

Kindred spirits, you and I! My wife always thought it was weird that I'd slap butter on a brownie, until she tried it.....Much better than frosting (which I'm not fond of anyhow). If not butter, then just a plain ol brownie.

....After a long hiatus, just recently got back into Kali (Filipino stick and knife fighting). What an absolute "riot of fun." Learning how to smash someone in the face with a hunk of rattan or stab them in the spleen is TRULY a guilty pleasure. I only wish I could practice on my boss with live blades.... :)

My guilty pleasures are...

Music - Lady Gaga, La Roux

TV - Desperate Housewives

Really cheesy, I know, but these guilty pleasures are supplemented by a bunch of manly things to counteract their less than manly natures. Such as TV shows about building custom motorcycles (American Chopper, Biker Build-Off, etc.)
