Well, here in Italy they complain a lot about pineapple on pizza but then eat ham on melon

[–] em2@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Salsa with cream cheese. Looks like vomit, which is actually a plus because you don't have to share!

[–] jonkenator@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

My grandma used to make this. We call it pink slime.

It's delicious.

[–] SacredHeartAttack@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Grilled Cheese and Worcestershire sauce.

[–] jargoggles@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Salt and anything sweet. Salt is a flavor enhancer and can make sweet flavors pop even more.

[–] zero_iq@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Mmm, salmiak... when you get that perfect hit of sweet and salty at once! πŸ˜‹

[–] Moonguide@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Also coffee. It doesn't make bad coffee good coffee, but it makes it less bad. Doesn't help Starbucks coffee however, nothing can.

Peanut butter is a massively underrated burger condiment.

[–] Discotheque@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (7 children)

A burger isn’t supposed to be sweet though…

[–] ccunix@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

And yet we all add ketchup which has huge amounts of sugar in it

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 2 years ago

Sateh sauce with peanut base isn't sweet and goes well with a variety of meats

[–] jimmyjazx@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago

The best peanut butter has no added sugar, some grocery stores have a machine that grinds salted roasted peanuts.

[–] CorInABox@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Not sure if all peanut butter variants are sweet? The only ones I have tried tasted savory, and some even felt somewhat salty. Maybe some have sugar added to them?

[–] nishville@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Peanut butter is not sweet though... Unless you are using the highly processed one with additives.

[–] CosmicApe@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Bruh, peanut butter isn't supposed to be sweet

[–] holgersson@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Then buy proper peanut butter and not the American kind. Natural peanut butter is a banger

[–] pickle_party247@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Toast with peanut butter and sriracha. It's almost like a satay flavour, really good drunk snack!

[–] Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Similarly, peanut butter & sambal on toast. It's basically savoury & spicy peanut sauce. Absolutely delightful.

Peanut butter goes really well in chicken flavor ramen.

[–] dnvtr@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Also peanut butter and pickles.

[–] FlashZordon@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We used to have a dude in our college dorms who used to sell Cup of Noodles with a spoon of peanut butter inside for like 3 bucks. It's a GREAT and cheap meal after those late nights at the bar.

[–] ScottyB@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

This is how I upgrade all my noodles. Everyone asks my secret to make them creamy and nutty. I tell them "Add the ingredient in your kitchen called 'chunky peanut butter'" None of them believe me.

[–] RomanRoy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I always hated the idea to put beans and bananas together. It is a fairly common habit in my country, tho, but it's a no-no for me in general.

But once I tried a Nigerian dish that had beans, bananas, shrimps and pepper and I absolutely fucking loved it. Seriously, the flavor was from another world.

I'm gonna go with game genres, specifically roguelikes and rhythm-based games. They sound terrible together and yet, Crypt of the Necrodancer (and also Cadence of Hyrule) is the shit.

Strawberries and black pepper.

Slice the strawberries and dip them in a bit of black pepper.

[–] zephyr@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Rice and milk. (Sometimes called rice pudding)

Soft ice and fries. Tastes like waffles. Now you could just get waffles, but if you want a surprise then this is something to try.

[–] bananacles@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Coffee and fruit juice. β˜•πŸ₯­

It's a common add-in with some Tiki drinks with juices including pineapple, orange, passion fruit, and lime. When my SO makes something, he'll commonly toss the excess volumes into a glass sans alcohol for me to enjoy.

[–] jimrob4@midwest.social 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Hamburgers with peanut butter and jalapeno.

[–] ComatoseSquirrel@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

This is the first in the thread that I plan to try. It sounds like a great combo.

Liquorice (or even better, salted liquorice) and coffee.

Sounds alien, I know. You just gotta trust the process though.

[–] nishville@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Peanut butter on a meat sandwich. Any sandwich. I like roast beef peanut butter combo.

[–] ShoePaste@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

A pickle back! Pickle juice chaser with a shot of Jameson. i thought a pickle back was the most disgusting sounding thing until i tried it. it's a fantastic chaser for a shot of whiskey.

Peanut butter, mayo, dill pickle sandwich. Might not be too rare, I've met a few other people who eat variations of this but damn is it good.

You gotta watch out though cuz all that mayo will sneak up on you.

[–] findorkotor93@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Alcohol and power tools.

[–] fratermus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 years ago

coca-cola + hefeweizen = colaweizen

Sounds vile, is really tasty.

[–] Thormjolnir@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I've only ever tried it once, and no drugs were involved but a Irish o garlic bratwurst, and a Hershey chocolate bar. Sooo good.v

[–] Saturdaycat@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Black coffee and diet coke, I used to get it a lot like that hit or miss from McDonald's drive thru before they started selling it in a can.

It was pretty good! I like sweetened coffee but I also am a carbonation fiend so it really scratched both itches at the same time

[–] bakavic@latte.isnot.coffee 1 points 2 years ago

Yea, this is surprising nice!

Have you tried coffee with light beer? (Lagers/pils, not the usual stouts)

Example: https://www.changbeer.com/chang-espresso-lager-wins-at-the-world-stage-for-fine-flavours-and-true-asian-design/

On the fence for these πŸ™ƒ

[–] Underbroen 1 points 2 years ago

Dark chocolate and liquorice

[–] goforliftoff@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

Peanut butter and jelly sandwich with cheetos OR cheddar ruffles.

[–] Steam-Roller@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Strawberry jelly on tortilla chips! The contrast of salty and sweet create a wonderful blend of flavors in your mouth.
