Two great tastes that go great together?

Pretzels and Orange Juice.

salt and lemon juice

Buttered toast dipped in a big glass of cherry Kool-Aid.

@dale: love salt and lemons!

I cut lemons in half and salt them, or sometimes if I’m not in the mood to squeeze a lemon umpteen billion times I’ll juice the lemon, supersaturate the liquid with salt and sip it

something that’s in my crockpot at home right now: 1 can of condensed cream of mushroom and one can of French onion mixed.

Fresh broccoli and chocolate icing. Yummy!

EmpressPixie: Holy Smokes! Really? I might have to try that!

There was a thread about this recently :)

Actually it started out to be things that go together and it evolved from there into weird combos hehe

leftover thanksgiving turkey on a sandwich with green olives!

Cigarettes and chocolate milk.

@lefteh—That song is my ringtone. :D

It’s a good one. It’s also true.

@truffles: Related.. I love taking shredded leftover Thanksgiving turkey, preferably dark, and putting it on toast with a little mayo. drools

McDonalds french fries dipped in vanilla milkshake…or really any salty, crispy thing with any sweet, creamy thing (pretzels or peanuts and ice cream, peanuts and candy corn, etc.)

scrambled eggs and ketchup

Butter and popcorn

Everyone I know thinks this is gross but I just love Peanut Butter, Grape Jelly and Mayonnaise sandwiches. I liked them even before I got pregnant the first time and now that I no longer can get pregnant I like them even more. Weird I know.

HAM AND CHEESE.

my dad swears by PB&J with ham… and it sounds heinous, but I tried it and it’s really not that bad. I wouldn’t make one for myself, but if I had to eat one, I wouldn’t vomit either.

Maple syrup sausages. Try ‘em, they’re delicious.

blue cheese and chocolate covered graham crackers

@poofandmook Does sound heinous but I like strange combinations so I might try it.lol.

My husband likes chili with a peanut butter (crunchy) sandwich. My daughter likes cucumbers and chocolate cake (very odd). I like to take 1/4 dill pickle and wrap ham and cheese around it. Also, mashed potatoes and peas.

poof, GA for using the word “heinous”.

@McBean It gives the chocolate a nice texture and a small bitter flavor, but mostly you don’t taste the broccoli. I just love the texture.

chocolate and peanut butter!

@Katy: Lol.

Pepsi and milk… ala Laverne and Shirley.

dill pickle potato chips to scoop up pork N beans

Little green grapes with sour cream and brown sugar. oops, three items.

Peanut butter and bacon.

Green olives in egg salad.

@daloon
Oreo Cookies and Orange juice

7Up and fritos

lived on that stuff when I was in college

Almost forgot – Pepperoni and Ranch Dressing! (a wizard rock favorite, it seems)

Pocky and Coca-Cola are divine together. Sugar rush!

Also, try toasted pumpernickel with cream cheese (i’m collapsing that into one taste) with a big glass of pulped orange juice. So good.

candy corn and peanuts.
bacon and corn flakes with milk and sugar.

Choclate Ice Cream And Pepsi

An omelette with ziti, American cheese, an bacon in the center. Top that off with some red onions and jalopeneo peppers and between light buttered toast (preferablily white or Italian bread)

M&M’s with popcorn
frencfries in a choclate milkshake

@indy, you’re soo funny. you can’t imagine eating a salt and vinegar potato chip but you love your omelettes with ziti, etc. Classic. It does sound good though…. maybe with some fried potatoes?

warmed grapenuts cereal – pour the milk and heat it in microwave and sugar!

weed and coconut pecan icing (or any food really). mmmmmm
i came home one night and ate like half the container. wonderful!

How could I forget?! My mom is an awesome cook, she makes her own yummy bolognese sauce. She made this fritatta once with leftover spaghetti that had her sauce mixed in. Scrambled eggs and spaghetti (with sauce). I know it sounds weird, but it’s seriously good. I made it myself once (her sauce of course) and yummmm.

sparkling Shiraz and chocolate cake.

If you eat an orange tootsie roll with a regular chocolate one it tastes just like an orange tootsie pop.

sharp cheddar and granny smith green apples

@trudacia, lol, yeah your right. Although I once put tater-tots in my omelette with sliced sausages. Mmm, hardy and it clogs your up your arteries, what could be better than that???? :)

Chimay Belgian beer with Gorgonzola cheese chunks

Anyone want to come to Jersey, I have a 5 quart crock pot full of chicken with yummy mushroom/french onion gravy!

Hey Daloon…..come on over bb!
I guess thems are the perks of being a professional chef!
You bring the cheeses…pleases…..I’m an artisinal cheese whore!
I’ll break out the vintage!!!!

I have such an uncultured palate! :( All this talk of artisinal cheeses and here I am with my soup gravy. LOL

poofandmook….don’t be silly….I paid a lotta dough to be the cultured food snob that I am today…lol
It’s a natural gift as well. Besides, I looooooooove food.

since you paid all this money and you’re such a cultured food snob, can I PM you with a question?

Dove dark chocolate and red wine

poofandmook….absolutely…..

BarbieM…..I’m guessing you don’t suffer from migraines? Wicked, albeit, timeless food/wine combination. You’re a girl of discerning tastes.

You have my vote…wow those sound good!

Can do…..
....But can you afford me?
O.K. this one’s on me!!!!!!! But it’s B.Y.O.B.

@mee_ouch: I sent you that question :)

I’m on it!!!!

spaghettini with baby beets, onions and pine nuts

chocolate mousse with gran marnier sauce

hot apricot, plum, and strawberry compote with gran marnier over vanilla ice cream (amazing what aging ingredients in the fridge will make you do)

grilled veal chop, marinated in lemon, garlic and mint, the sweetest Lancaster county corn ever, baby yellow squash with almonds and sour cream

good ol’ home cookin’!

everything is actual home cooking except the choc mousse/gran marnier desert—that was from a guide michelin 3 star restaurant en Provence in 1972 (and I still remember it like it was yesterday!)

Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches! YUM! I try to convince so many people to try them, but no one is open-minded enough to do it, so they won’t ever know what they’re missing out on, and missing out they are! I’ve loved them since I was little, you should totally try it!

Also: Popcorn dipped in spicy salsa – which actually isn’t that odd.

Last but not least: Bananas dipped in spicy salsa. Sounds very bizarre, but my best friend made me try it one day and it’s not bad at all.

maple sugar and pickles! The pickle flavor (what’s the word for that?) cuts the incredible sweetness of the maple sugar, and you can eat a lot more (should you want to).

Fried camembert and blackberry or raspberry preserves.

Oooooh, Lars…..you’re baaaadddd!
Camembert is one of my favs. Have you ever tried cambazola? The consistency of camembert with an infusion of gorgonzola….‘nuff said.

I make these apps. using a balsamic-glazed leek/vidalia onion confit over baby cambazola en croute…..decadent!!!!

Man! All this cheese is making me gassy. I guess I’m just jealous. I can do goat cheese though.

Are you lactose intolerant tf?

Crispy french fries with mayo or brown gravy.

Carla, Carla, Carla…....What a gal!
I love fries and mayo….fries and gravy….any poutine lovers here?

Had to look that one up mee ouch. I think it looks like a must try. :)

Poutine is a French-Canadian concoction which utilizes a myriad of fats to form a cohesive mess of yumminess.
Fries….the crispier the better
Curd cheese…..right on top of the fries
Gravy…..poured liberally over the fries and curd…it melts the cheese and sends you straight to ‘clogged artery’ heaven.

To many it sounds inpalatable, but trust me, it’s incredibly delish!
Moderation is the key! Those arteries don’t mind every so often.

It sounds and looks like heaven to me. I just don’t know where I would find cheese curds.

Oh and just for the record, bacon, cheese and chocolate with anything

Really? Where do you live? Is there not a deli in your area?
A good substitute, one that I use when curd is unavailable is grated cheese. Preferably havarti, or mozza….Mozzarella is quite bland though. You want something with a definitive flavour. Whatever floats yer boat I guess.
It’s got to be one of the best-kept secrets North ‘o 60! Shit…...secrets out….........
Try it sometime though. I’d be interested in hearing some feedback. Anybody I’ve ever divulged the ‘classic’ Canajun dish to is initially apalled by the abundance of ‘stuff’....until they taste it…...then they’re on their collective knees begging for forgiveness!
lol

Bacon, cheese and chocolate…..mmmmmmm…...
I’m feeling a little like Homer Simpson on this post.

Yup. Lactose intolerant here.

Mee ouch, I live in LA. I’m sure I can find it somewhere, I just have never looked for it. It wasn’t a bit appalling to me. I intend to add to the list of b’day foods. think it will go with the fried pizza that was suggested to me yesterday? :)

FER SURE!!!!!!

SALT AND VINEGAR

popcorn and rootbeer

popcorn with worchestershire sauce

popcorn has ‘all’ the bases covered! Goes with everything!

Butter + Vegemite on toast dipped in a cup of english/australian breakfast tea mmmmmmmm

@mee_ouch, I have never heard of…cambazola, but it most definitely sounds like a winner. I find that I am becoming lactose intolerant—ie, must use nonfat milk. But so far yogurt and cheese is fine. If cheese becomes a problem, life will not be worth living.
re: poutine, I am reminded of my buddy Jorge. He likes french fries with cheese melted on them then he puts a couple fresh sunny-side up eggs over the whole mess. I used to tell him he was a heart attack on a popsicle stick.

@mee ouch: I actually used to have horrible migraines as a teen, but they stopped after I had my children thankfully. I now only get one about once a year, so I can have my wine and chocolate.

Shrubbs….Vegemite is damn delish!
Lars…..“Heart attack on a stick!” Sure as hell sounds like it to me! But once again, I stress Moderation. I don’t punish myself over these things….I can also afford to add a few pounds these days…
I wish you luck the lactose intolerance infiltration. Two of my three boys were born with it. I didn’t realize it at all with no. 1 (of the two) and he was a whirling dervish…for a very long time. A whole range of behaviour issues. He’s he’s a wonderful young man now. With the baby, he exhibited the same behaviours from day 1. I let it continue for 5 weeks, then realized it was obviously an allergy to ‘my milk’. He simply couldn’t tolerate it. So I put him on soy formula and the very first day he slept straight through the night and his entire disposition reversed. Amazing transformation. Watch out for yourself, Lars. .........Don’t deny yourself either! Moderation!

Barbie…..You’re incredibly fortunate to have rid yourself of this nasty malady. Once again, my eldest was inundated with them from the age of 7. I’d never felt so utterly helpless in my life. Thankfully he’s been experiencing them less and less as he ages.
You take care of yourself as well. Buuuuuut as I posted to Lars, don’t deny.

Good food is one of life’s greatest pleasures. Experience all you’re able to.
Moderation

I may have repeated a word or two in the above post. oooooops

I beg of you all….on bended knee…Puleeeeeeeeze forgive me!
I’m leaving now.

@Shrubbery I’m in love with vegemite and cheese myself. Celery with sugar sprinkled on it, yummo, my mum used to give them that one as a snack all the time.

Grape jelly and yellow mustard sandwich. Try it before you ‘dis it. My grand father taught me this one. RIP G.G.

@tekn: Wow. You know, though, I believe that grape jelly, mustard and ketchup is supposed to make a great sauce for cocktail sausages. In fact, I think I just saw something like that on Sam the Cooking Guy.

My grandfather used to make buttery scrambled eggs and he and I would eat them with a blob of grape jelly on the side. As an adult (and a mom) I serve them with strawberry preserves instead.

Grape soda and bar-b-q Fritos. Lived on it in college.

I love Honey BBQ Frito Twists! I’ve just never tried them with grape soda. Sounds good, though.

tekn, cheese and vegemite is a great combo. I love cheesymite scrolls mmmm :)

shubbery, are cheesymite scrolls something that you make yourself?

Nahh I don’t, I’m not that skilled. I get them from the bakery. See here

Is this bakery in Australia or should I head on out here in San Diego to hunt them down? I’ve never had vegemite in any form.

Hmm, it’s Australian owned but it is a franchise and they do have stores all over the world but I couldn’t tell you if there’s one in San Diego sorry. Some other American Flutherites have mentioned a store where they can get Vegemite but I can’t remember where I’m sorry. I mean it is owned by Kraft so it shouldn’t be too hard to find. If you can find it, try a tiny little bit on toast. I stress tiny. It’s a strong taste and you can’t rush yourself into it because you may be put off forever. And here‘s a recipe for the scrolls :)

Watermelon with salt on it.
@gooch I love scrambled eggs with ketchup!

McBean…..how right you are with the jelly, mustard and ketchup mix….I’ve used it myself on many an occasion. Good one teknOlust!

Lars…there you go again…..I loooooove, love, love grape soda and BBQ. fritos.
Every Saturday night when I was a kid, it was me, my dad’s recliner, a bottle ‘o the ‘grape’ (soda that is), a bag of fritos and Carol Burnett. That for me was a ritual for years…

@mee_ouch, you just brought back some childhood memories. I did the same thing on Saturday nights as a kid, except we had Pepsi instead of grape soda.

Tropical punch Kool-Aid and salty potato chips go really well together, I just discovered last night.

Wow, you guys have the food covered. I’ll think I’ll just top it all off with an E Nobel Petit handrolled in Denmark cigarillo of Sumatra tobacco with a demitasse of authentic (darn near chewy) Turkish coffee as served on the streets of Istanbul. Two very bold, yet heartwarming tastes.

Hmmm…i’d have to say mashed potatoes and brown gravy

amandaafoote: classic combo

Long time ago when I actually ate bologna, I had to have ketchup on my bologna sandwishes. Now I get the horrors thinking about all the bologna and hot dogs I ingested. The were Hebrew Nationals, but I still get the whim-whams thinking about it.

mmmmm…...mashed potatoes and gravy.
Lars…..‘mock’ lunch meat? It’s a wonder I don’t glow for all I was fed as a kid!

Anybody have fried bologna sandwiches as a kid? My grandfather used to cut a little notch in the bologna slice and sprinkle it with sugar before frying it up. After that, it was slapped on cheap white bread with Miracle Whip (not even real mayo). I haven’t had one of those since I was 9 or 10.

Oh, my…............!
McB…..you’ve just taken me back….........wow! Thick slices of crusty white bread….!
I don’t think I ever had ‘real’ mayo growing up. Believe it or not, there are still several things I still use Miracle Whip for. ......It’s got a certain ‘kick’ that real mayo can’t duplicate.

Oh, mee_ouch… Sounds like you had yours with good bread. The bread we used was so gummy it would record your fingerprints if you pressed hard enough. :-)

Oh people, I used to do that, too. Balogna with the notch. Miracle whip. My Mom’s homemade white bread. Except I’d also melt some cheese on it.

My dad used to cut thick slices of Bermuda onion and sandwich them between gobs of MW and butter on this bread….you could smell him coming….before, during and after..

And you survived??????

Barely….lol
I’ve got no aversion to onions either. I may be one of the few Pavlovian success stories!

I dunno. Onions on my own breath—fairly tolerable. On someone else’s breath? I think not! Actually, I feel like I’ve been eating onions now; but I haven’t been!

Ok. Sorry. TMI.

I’ve had MW and onion sandwiches before, but I sliced the onions really thin and didn’t use butter. I did this out of curiousity because a man that came into the hotel I worked at used to order them all the time. I like MW and tomato sandwiches better tho.

Mash up bananas, peanut butter and strawberry jam. Spread on two waffles to make a waffle sandwich. Portable breakfast of champions.

@steelmarket that sounds good! I get a sweet tooth in the morning, so I will have to give it a try.

Bananas foster over fresh vanilla icecream.

Mmmmm.

halloumi cheese and oranges (lightly fry the cheese in a skillet then place an orange piece on top) – delicious!

Oh yeah, how could I forget? Pizza and root beer!

peanut butter and ritz crackers too.

30 yr. old Glennfiddich…....
....and a steady hand…

Trudacia: Didn’t know anyone else liked Doritos on their cream cheese bagels! Yummy!
Mee-Ouch: Fries and poutine! (And, yeah, you should whip up an electronic tapas smorgasbord.)

I can’t believe no one said peanut butter & Fluff!
It kind of grosses people out, but I love orange juice and Coke. (Spezi in Germany?)
My best friend in grade school loved chocolate and pickles?
Super ghetto, but I love toast and condensed milk.

Macaroni & cheese mixed with pork-n-beans! NOT like chili mac. There’s something about the sauce that results that is so yummy and comforting!

My theory: coconut + carrots. Haven’t tested it yet, though. But I imagine those would mix pretty well, not the least, perhaps in a drink?

Strawberry with some chocolate chip melted. you can buy the chocolate chips. Alot of people melt the chocolate chips in the microwave and others boil it untill. well then you dip the strawberry and let it cool off for 10–15 minutes or untill it cool.

Mmmm tasty =] Enjoy

@makemo – coconut and carrots do indeed taste good together. IMHO, the best carrot cake has a generous amount of coconut thrown into the batter as well. I’ll bet that a creamy, curried carrot soup would be delicious as well. (I’m talking more of a Thai curry, here, with coconut milk and a bit of good spiciness!)

@Emelo123 – Yes, chocolate-covered strawberries are very, very good!

Tomato and Cheese, the most epic combination of flavors to ever go together In my opinion.

Apples with Sweet Chilli Sause

Scalloped potatoes with syrup! Try it, trust me. it’s sooo yummy!

Camembert on bacon flavored chicken in a biskit. NOTE: DO NOT DRINK ORANGE JUICE AT THE SAME TIME! IT TASTES LIKE VOMIT!

watermelon and white cheese
