For me, it’s tortilla chips and ketchup…

Edit: Alright, if I get sick of your fault

Unsweetened cold brew coffee, fresh orange juice, and sparkling mineral water. It sounds most foul but tastes so good, sparkling smokey orange.

[–] beto@lemmy.studio 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What ratio? I'm curious to try this.

[–] RBWells@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

About 1:1:2, coffee, juice, sparkling water. I really like it a lot. Has to be fresh orange juice.

Doritos and chocolate milk.

Don't ask me why or what it reminds me of, but the nostalgia portion of my brain goes haywire with that combo (maybe a good memory that's locked away with some bad ones? I dunno).

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I actually came here to post an eerily similar one.

Chocolate milk and buttered popcorn.

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Or maybe, chocolate milk is just amazing no matter what you're eating.

Liverwurst and pickles on cinnamon raisin bread. The salt and savory work with the sweet bread IMO. Gotta use the good liverwurst though. It's so goddamn hard to find these days. Kahn's.

[–] cattywampas@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Applesauce and white bread. Potato chips and ketchup.

[–] hydrashok@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

Get you some all dressed chips and blow your mind!

[–] vvilld@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Eating a banana while drinking coffee. Perfectly complimentary flavors.

Mac and Cheese with Gojuchang hot sauce.

[–] AA5B@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I’ll have to try that sometime, but Mac and cheese goes great with each type of hot sauce I’ve tried so far

Bread and fries

Popcorn and orange juice

[–] Acamon@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The Chip Butty is a British classic, but I don't know popcorn and oj. What's the appeal, just a refreshing drink to sip with popcorn? Or is this some crazy oj cereal type thing?

Any type of fried tofu has a unique texture when cold that I really love. So cold fried tofu.

Before lactose intolerance set in, BBQ-flavored potato chips dipped in cottage cheese. Also Doritos dipped in cottage cheese. Absolute fire.

[–] sbf@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think you may just like cottage cheese

That's reminiscent of the Prosciutto e Melone that my Italian wife has taught me to enjoy!

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Weird Al came up with the Twinkie Weiner Dog, which is a hot dog with a Twinkie as the bun topped with spray cheese. It's surprisingly good.

[–] yesman@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Applesauce and sausage gravy.

It shouldn't be a surprise since pork pairs so well with sweet foods, but it's as essential to biscuits and gravy as hot-sauce.

[–] Acamon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Little chocolate chip cookies as a cracker for hummus. The sweet biscuit texture with the cool, tangy lemon and garlic hummus is amazing. But sadly, most people are not ready for such truths.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I am actually about to head out and get some smoked salmon and Västerbottenost, that is a very good combo.

Current dinner plans are "Stoy's Special Swedish Wrap":

You need:

  • Soft Swedish tunnbröd
  • Cold smoked salmon
  • Grated Västerbottenost
  • Lettuce
  • Tomato
  • Cuecumber
  • Lime

Start by placing smoked salmon on the Tunnbröd, sprinkle Västerbottenost over it, squeeze some lime over it, put two leaves of lettuce on the samlon, take two thin slices of tomato on top of the lettuce, add thin slices of cuecumber, roll it all up, enjoy!

  1. French toast and ketchup and maple syrup
  2. Steak, cottage cheese and ripple potato chips
  3. Peanut butter sandwiches and chicken noodle soup
  4. Sweet potato fries or perogies with Miracle whip.
[–] HiroProtagonist@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

Okay so far these are the only really weird ones. The thought of ketchup and maple syrup gave me an involuntary shudder and I have eaten Tarantula.

[–] semperverus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Chocolate bar dipped in nacho cheese.

[–] shyguyblue@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Macaroni and tuna, but you have to use the liquid cheese kind, not the powdered abortion.

Cool ranch Doritos and sour cream, saw this mentioned before and had to try it. Worth every penny.

[–] ChromaticMan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

An apple with peanut butter.

[–] beto@lemmy.studio 3 points 1 week ago

Tahini and Sriracha.

Best sauce for a burrito, but also great on salads.

[–] smock@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Rockstar energy drink and a heath bar, for whatever reason they complement each other so well

[–] Contemporarium@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

I have a sugar free rockstar and chocolate a few mornings every week because of how weirdly good they compliment each other but I never really put thought into it being a weird combo hahaha, but you’re totally right!

[–] HiroProtagonist@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

On a cracker, usually a Breton (made in Canada) I place a thin slice of aged cheddar then I top it with peanut butter a smear of mayo and a drop or two of hot sauce. I used to use Franks now I use Valentina (Mexican) Anyway it's amazing.

Ketchup and peanut butter

[–] spittingimage@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

It looks like most of the strange combos in the thread are variations on the theme of sweet + savoury. Lives up to the premise - that's weird and bad and wrong.
