By weird I mean outside of regular cat diet, things like cornflakes, ketchup or banana bread (these are real examples from my and my friends’ cats).
Not my cat, but a family friend’s. The cat would go nuts for olives. One of them liked having olives on their pizza, and the cat would eat their way through unattended pizza boxes to get to the olives on the top of the pizza.
Broccoli. The vet says it’s ok.
Granpa Rex Allen, a Texas-dwelling Sphynx/Devon-Rex cross, regularly consumed broccoli. He lived to be 34 years and 2 months old.

@mihnt and @landflucht that’s so weird, I came in here to talk about a cat I knew that would beg for the cut off stalks from raw broccoli!

I once housesat and the cat would bite any soft fruit as well as through the plastic bags of snacks if left unattended. I’m attaching the photo of what a peach bitten by that cat looked like. I hope the attachment works, first time trying this
I used to have a cat that went nuts for cantaloupe. Like she would eat through cardboard to get to it, then gnaw through the rind and hollow it out.
I let my cats sniff almost everything, and they usually walk away. For example, today I let them sniff some both raw chicken that I was preparing for my own dinner, and both gave it a few good sniffs before walking away. Most recently, I discovered that my youngest enjoys peanut butter! I believe it was the same cat who has also tried to eat my dried mango on multiple occasions. It was either my oldest or a friend’s cat who repeatedly took me up on the offer of banana chips.
I know a cat that loses it’s mind for Nutzo, the one with a bunch of different nuts. I’ve seen it even get the classic dog and peanut butter mouth situation going on too lol
My girl craves bananas and will circle the table when my son and I are having breakfast, demanding her share. She also likes pita chips.
My old boy (RIP) used to love avocado and seaweed snacks.
Spinach, Broccoli, Green beans and peas
My little idiot is very confused about his role in the food chain
My cat goes nuts for cheese. It’s the only time he lets out his aggressive demanding meow.
One of my cats loved fruit. She was a 7 toed blue eyed white cat that loved canteloupe as a snack.
Before my wonderful cat passed away, he was never interested in “people food”. But there were 2 exceptions that he went absolutely bonkers for: ranch dressing and Taco Bell.
Made me question the true edibility of both.

Avocados, bread and cheese. Also they will do anything for chicken nuggets.
Unfortunately, I also own a tiny human as well, whose preferred diet also consists of the same things and has a short attention span. The cats adore tiny human as she is a source of unguarded treats.
The struggle is real.
God help me as tiny human just found out about avocado toast with shredded Parmesan… The cats are thrilled.
Oh no, your cats are millenials, now you’ll never afford a house!
One of my cats has what I call social pica. She is always trying to get me to eat paper with her.
Mine does this too, she will tear up pieces of paper on the floor and leave a mess. I’ve wondered if it’s something to be concerned about
Very important papers. Try spending time with her and her pile, it might make her so happy
One of our cats care’s 0% for most foods but will beg for provolone cheese. Only provolone.
And tuna but that’s not weird.
My folks’ cats will eat that cardboard box. Seriously, they have to be really careful not to leave any boxes out.
She goes for rice but only basmati.
