Art Pibb Xtra spicy gummies

I used AI to make some art for it I had a dream last night I was on the best date of my life and we went to a gas station. Found some Pib Xtra gummies and literally sat there in amazement for so long. She was hurt that I gave the gummies more attention šŸ˜‚

Just Weird Weird hot dogs

47 Upvotes

I donā€™t remember what they were called (except it was a play on Winco grocery storeā€™s name) but in my dream I was shopping and found a brand of hotdogs. The immediate flavor I noticed was penguin flavor. I donā€™t know if it was actually made of penguin or if it was just flavored to taste like them? (Which was what my dream self assumed) They also had toad, another weird flavor I forgot, and original (which was chicken)

This was just at a regular grocery store and it threw off my entire dream because of how confused I was from it. I vaguely remember what the packaging looked like so I might try to recreate it sometime

Unrealized Strawberry Potato Gelatin

171 Upvotes

Had a dream last night that my roommate made a strawberry potato gelatin. In the dream logic, something about the potato starch helped it achieve a firmer texture and made the color a little more opaque.

It was placed in a big round jello mold to set, then frosted like a cake with strawberry frosting, and dusted with shredded coconut.

Unrealized Peachamato

283 Upvotes

Last night's dream, I was asking someone what they were eating and they said, "Peachamato!"

Mozzarella pearls, grape tomatoes, balsamic glaze, fresh peach slices, basil leaves, peach jam, and black pepper on flatbread points.

Kinda want to try it.

Just Weird Electrolyte BBQ sauce

99 Upvotes

This was the product of an anxiety riddled afternoon nap. I woke up covered in sweat after being introduced to some kind of hydration based barbecue sauce.

I donā€™t recall the texture or flavor but I do know I was in the hospital being offered this condiment. Sorta makes sense I guess.

I am thinking I could potentially recreate this but I would have to use a pre existing hydration powder which would likely be fruit flavoredā€¦ maybe itā€™d be good?

Cursed Feral Strawberry

I had this dream back in 2011. But just find this sub.

I had the strangest dream this morning. My husband & I were out in this foresty type area. And a Gigantic cupcake appeared in the middle of the field. But it had no icing. It was about the size of a table. Then, this gigantic strawberry floated up from the ground. It was about the size of my head. My husband grabbed it and took a bite out of it. It then turned around to show it's gigantic vicious mouth with pointy white teeth. It flew after both of us, trying to bite our faces. Damn strawberry was strong too.

Unrealized Smoked Cheerios

288 Upvotes

I had a dream that I smoked cheerios with a cocktail smoker then served them with chocolate milk. It was such a hit I ate a ton and became obsessed with the smoked cheerios so I made them into granola bars. They contained:

  • Smoked cheerios
  • Maple syrup
  • Candied orange pieces
  • Dark chocolate chunks
  • Almonds

Haven't tried it, but I do own a cocktail smoker so maybe?

Unrealized Lil' Sweeties

87 Upvotes

Dream recipe for Lil' Sweeties

It came from a 50s style home and housekeeping magazine in a column:

"Looking to give a good friend of yours a good ribbing? Do you hate somebody and want them to pay for their existence? Then whip up a nice plate of Lil' Sweeties and let the fun begin!

Ingredients:

2 cups lard

1 cup sugar

1 package of cotton balls

Steps:

  1. Melt the lard in a pan saucepan

  2. When liquefied, mix in sugar, and stir until sugar is dissolved

  3. Throw in your cotton balls, and soak them in the mixture until completely saturated.

  4. Put the cotton balls in the freezer until solidified

  5. Plate and serve, preferably alongside a bowl of Jellywobbles ( a dish which was never explained in the dream).

And there you have it, a nice plate of Lil' Sweeties! Did you make these? You dumbass, this was a joke! Don't make these, you moron!"

They're some sort of fake confection that you give to your friends as a prank. I will attempt them someday.

Unrealized Applerotte Cookies

58 Upvotes

Had a dream I found this huge bulk bag of these cookies at a grocery store of applerotte cookies, which were cookies with apple and carrot flavored filling inside. The filling is soft and a slightly different texture than the outside of the cookie. The outside of the cookie was very thin. Sounds yummy

Unrealized Cookie + milkshake?

39 Upvotes

Idk how to explain this, but i dreamt i was in some weird crossover of undertale, my little pony, and the owl house. In the dream, someone coated a chocolate chip cookie with some sort of blue milkshake (it was blue raspberry flavored iirc), and this food was an offensive gesture to sans and papyrus, which was apparently equivalent to saying a racial slur. My dream was very foggy, but it looked kind of good, so now im tempted to coat a cookie in milkshake to see how it tastes

Just Weird Blue raspberry flavoured French fries

118 Upvotes

They were bright blue, smiley cut, blue raspberry flavoured fries and they were DELICIOUS. The PERFECT combination of sweet and salty AND savoury. There was also a sauce that was blue raspberry again, and it was the same shade of blue as the fries with the appearance and consistency of Tubby custard.

I wish I knew how to recreate them in real life! You'd have to infuse potato with blue raspberry flavouring somehow... I don't know. All I know is that those fries were scrumptious. Some of the best I've ever had.

Actually Made! The gentlemanā€™s wiener

itā€™s essentially an Italian sausage sandwich with onions and peppers but sub out the roll with a slice of pepperoni pizza - In college our cafeteria regularly had Italian sausage and of course always had pizza - somehow my subconscious finally made the connection for me and showed me how to combine them and even gave me the name in the same dream

Unrealized Please help me create this Massachusetts themed breakfast sandwich

175 Upvotes

I dreamt I found an ad for a new Dunkin Donuts breakfast sandwich that they only released in Massachusetts. The ad was ā€œitā€™s gonna be MASSiveā€ in Dunkin font and went on to show a sausage egg and cheese sandwich.

Iā€™m still drooling over the sandwich description. The muffin part was a cross between a McGriddle and a lobster cheddar biscuit from red lobster. It wasnā€™t as crumbly as the biscuit nor as chewy as the mcgriddle.

I was about to move my family across country for it when I found out the special only went from May 3rd to November 24th šŸ˜”

Yā€™all I need to eat one of these. How do I make the bread part??? Please help

Just Weird Sweet potato rangoon

47 Upvotes

I just remembered this dish from my dream last night and it sounds a bit... interesting.

Bake a sweet potato until fully cooked. Cut a slit in it then carefully scoop out the inside until mostly hollow. Stuff sweet potato skin with boiled king crab leg (artificial crab works if you don't have it) and cream cheese. Ta-da.

I would never in my life call this a rangoon, but that's what it was called in the dream LMAO

Just Weird unusual spice blend

49 Upvotes

i was rummaging through my spice shelf (itā€™s high up, so you cant really see whatā€™s in it), looking for something, when into my hands fell a medium sized no name spice bottle, that i had never seen before. i called out ā€œhey, where did we get this?ā€ i didnā€™t know how it got there. i examined the bottle. it wasnā€™t powdery, it was green, made up of herbs and seeds and some white chunks. on the front, in the classic plain, lowercase black writing against the yellow paper, was its name. ā€œgraceā€. this spice was called grace. i remember being perplexed. finally someone whoā€™d heard me walked into the room and thatā€™s where the dream ended. this is genuinely haunting me because not only is this so different from my normal dreams, e.g the total lack of resolution, but something in me knows that ā€œgraceā€ was an acronym, and i think iā€™ve figured out what i think it is. i mean, i figured out in the dream that ā€œgā€ is for garlic, because the white chunks. ā€œrā€ is perhaps for rosemary, ā€œaā€ for anise seeds, ā€œcā€ for cumin, but maybe sometimes itā€™s made with cilantro. ā€œeā€ was tough, but i think the Mexican spice epazote would be fair. would you cook with ā€œgraceā€?

Art Gourmet markers

282 Upvotes

In the dream i was in a grocery store looking at all the items for a really long time for fun. after a bit my dad got tired of it and picked up a random item to buy, i looked at the item and it was a marker called "gourmet marker" that could make edible marker lines

My dad grabbed one flavored with a made up berry (something like "aforenberry"), i then picked out a cola flavoured one, depicted here with a bad photoshop, because it was a superior flavour

Unrealized Cooked potato filled with cold grapes

66 Upvotes

I had a dream i went to Poland (i think) and stopped on the way to have a picknick with my family, one of them handed me a cooked, peeled potato which i happily bit into, only to find out it was hollowed out and filled with green grapes.

I woke up after this because it was so disgusting to me.

The grapes were quite large, and the ā€œwallsā€ of the potato were about a centimeter thick. The potato itself was medium size, like a fist.

Unrealized spicy onion eggs

60 Upvotes

i cant remember what their name was in the dream but they were extremely finely sliced raw onions mixed with buffalo sauce to create a texture similar to buffalo chicken dip with crunch, but they contained no chicken. the onion filling was piped into hard boiled egg halves like deviled eggs, and they were sold in plastic trays in the sushi section. i remember buying them bc they were the only sushi left and trying to eat one and not liking it lol

A dessert made by my dining hall. Two slices of vanilla cake with baked cinnamon apples inbetween them like a sandwich. They called it ā€œSo Thatā€™s Where the Apples Went!ā€ and I recall it was pretty dank even though I donā€™t like baked apples.

Just Weird Apricot Jam with the Beatles

31 Upvotes

Funny dream last night: I was hanging out with the Beatles - all four, circa 1965 or so, in B&W no less - talking to them about making apricot jam. There was a lengthy discussion on the optimal degree of ripeness and not picking them too green. George, for some reason, really knew a lot about the process and was schooling Ringo on it. Who knew George Harrison was so knowledgeable about making apricot jam?

Unrealized Sriracha Tomato Broth Drink

12 Upvotes

Had a dream that I was in Australia with some guy - we ended up getting some kind of sriracha tomato broth drink out of a vending machine - didn't see what brand name it was or what specifically it was called. It was in a glass bottle like the ones Snapple used to come in. I'd try making it in real life but I'm out of sriracha.

Unrealized Sunday Cabin

28 Upvotes

this dessert came to me in a dream. it's similar to a gingerbread house, but made of wafers, and has more of a castle appearance than a cabin. it has no roof, just four walls. inside the structure, it's filled with whipped cream and pastry cream that's been folded together. to eat, you break off pieces of the wafer and scoop the cream center.

I love to bake so if I decide to make this I'll report back!
