  • The last time I ate a stick of unsalted butter, I feel like I was like ten and I realized that this is not the way to live your life.

  • [Adults try gross snack habits from their childhood.]

  • When I was a kid, I used to drink A1 sauce straight from the bottle.

  • No one ever knew that this is something I did until I was at the refrigerator with the bottle up to my lips and my mom caught me.

  • She threw away the A1 sauce and never bought it again.

  • And it burns a little bit going down, I remember that a little bit.

  • I don't think I'll go back to doing this regularly at all.

  • But yeah it's still good.

  • One more for the road.

  • I can't remember the last time I ate Arby's sauce out of a packet.

  • I think in middle school I tried to be a little less weird, so probably age 11 or 12.

  • Yeah, it was pretty bad.

  • It would be worth it if I went to Arby's and got another sandwich and put the sauce on it.

  • But yeah, no, I'm not feeling great about that.

  • The last time I ate a stick of unsalted butter, I feel like I was like ten and I realized that this is not the way to live your life.

  • In Indian culture, we have this one god, Krishna, and he eats butter.

  • All my old comic books, they would talk about him grabbing the fresh butter that was just churned from the milk of cows.

  • So I went to my fridge, tried some butter, and I was like, "That is the stuff."

  • It tastes like creamy nothing.

  • I do not like this.

  • Maybe it's different if it's fresh from a cow, but this is like the fridge of Costco or something.

  • I used to eat mashed avocados in milk with condensed milk and ice.

  • My mom actually did this for me when I was growing up.

  • I don't know if it's like a specific Filipino thing or something she just liked to do, but I just grew to love it.

  • See, that's really good, that's family recipe right there.

  • What I would say to my old self is, "You did it right with this."

  • I used to pack a bag of salt in a clear Ziploc bag and just bring it to school and people thought I was doing drugs, but it's actually just a bag of salt.

  • The reason why I stopped is because my blood pressure was getting super high.

  • I was always dehydrated.

  • This feels so good, but at the same time, I'm like, "What the heck am I doing?" you know.

  • Oh my gosh.

  • I would never do that again now, it's like strictly in the past.

  • Hey Mom, I'm sorry, I used to eat salt.

  • I know that you always told me that's not good.

  • Too bad, I already did it.

  • I used to eat a ton of gross shit as a kid, but my ultimate favorite is tomato sauce or ketchup on white rice.

  • I think I discovered it by chance one day.

  • 'Cause I like to dip most things in tomato sauce.

  • But then when I put the rice with it, I was just blown away.

  • I think we all have weird things that we enjoy.

  • I'm sure there are better-tasting things in the world, technically, but this is just really comforting for me.

  • I crave this as an adult almost every day.

  • It's the sad truth.

  • Oh my gosh, this feels so nostalgic.
