Just tried pouring some ginger ale in my lemonade (homemade). 10/10, much better than I wouldn’t thought

    Wendy’s French fries dipped in their frosty. It was at least a good combination twenty years ago …

    My friend worked at Subway for a few years and after a while you try weird stuff just to see if it’s good, and one of the best things is an oatmeal raisin cookie wrapped in pepper jack cheese.

    Also sharp cheddar on apple pie is a Yankee tradition and really good.

      I don’t like Brussel sprouts. Not even after they have been selecting them for sweet not bitter over the last 30 years.

      But… It is not really surprising that Salmon and roasted Brussel sprouts go good together. I mean this is not an uncommon pairing is it?

    Feta and watermelon

    Cantelope and prosciutto

    Anchovies in Ranch dressing (make it fresh, you animals)

    Goldschlager and Cuervo Gold tequila as a shaken shot (tastes like snickerdoodles)

    Pancakes topped with yogurt and honey or pistachio butter

    Georgian pesto is walnuts and cilantro, 10/10

    Peanut butter in a tomato stew sends it in an African direction, and it’s amazing

    Deep fried olives filled with cheese

    Salmon marinated in bourbon, touch of soy sauce, and brown sugar, baked.

    Anchovies and capers on your pizza if you wear big boy pants

    Red wine and coca cola if you’re 14

    Candied pine cones and creme brulé is 1 million percent magic

    Cheez-its and canned whipped cream tastes exactly like if you asked ChatGPT to describe what cheesecake tastes like.

        I’ve done that one a few times. Credit to Fred Savage in Little Monsters for putting me on the idea. My sis and I probably rented that movie a hundred times growing up.

          Someone needs to make a peanut butter, dill pickle, onion, and bacon sandwich and let us know how it is.

    Toast with mayo and powdered chocolate (Nesquik). Still not sure if my cousins were trying to pull a prank on me but it turned out to be one of my favourite childhood meals.

    Try dunking cookies in tea. Or orange juice. I love both but I get strange looks when I tell people.

    OTOH a few people have told me peanut butter and cheddar cheese make a great sandwich. I tried once, was not a fan.

    Milkshake with crispy bacon. You’ve got sweet, fatty, salty, crunchy, umami, creamy. So amazing. Blend or crumble a couple pieces into it but then have a whole piece or two stuck in it so you have bigger pieces to play around with. Has no business being as good as it is

    In college we used to take a Ritz cracker, ez cheese, and top with a pizza roll. I haven’t tried one in some years now but I remember it slapped at the time

    Used to know someone who would pour a box of junior mints into popcorn at the theater. Shake it a couple times, let it sit just long enough to get a little melty, then go wild. Bonus points for adding enough buttery topping to soak through the bottom of the container

    Jägermeister with milk. Or Batida de coco (with or without milk). Or with lemon juice and definitely no milk. (Don’t judge me, it’s legit good with milk)

    Orzo (rice shaped pasta) and peanut butter, its ultra-dense camping food, never need to make more than a small bowl.

      Kiki Riki?

      What’s funny is that’s ginger, onion, amd garlic away from West African peanut stew as a bread spread.
