Grilled Cheese and Worcestershire sauce.

[โ€“] hazardous_area@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Okay Iโ€™m gonna have to try that. Grilled cheese with mustard and apple works pretty well. Dijon mustard if you can swing it

My wife puts sliced apple in salad all the time. My aunt makes panini sandwiches with apple or pear slices on them. Apples are the best.

This sounds like a poor man's Welsh rarebit https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welsh_rarebit

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

Nutella and orange marmalade on an English muffin

[โ€“] jargoggles@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

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

[โ€“] Moonguide@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year 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.

[โ€“] zero_iq@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Mmm, salmiak... when you get that perfect hit of sweet and salty at once! ๐Ÿ˜‹

I once added a bottle of cherry Pepsi to my crock pot when making pulled pork and it was damn good.

[โ€“] ratboy@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

The liquids used for carnitas are generally: milk, Mexican coke, orange juice and water. I could see the cherry coke being bomb

Peanut butter is a massively underrated burger condiment.

[โ€“] jimrob4@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

Hamburgers with peanut butter and jalapeno.

[โ€“] blkwolf@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Strawberries and black pepper.

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

[โ€“] fratermus@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago

coca-cola + hefeweizen = colaweizen

Sounds vile, is really tasty.

[โ€“] em2@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

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.

Peanut butter goes really well in chicken flavor ramen.

[โ€“] FlashZordon@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

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.

[โ€“] dnvtr@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Also peanut butter and pickles.

[โ€“] Discotheque@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Allllso peanut butter and jelly.

[โ€“] zephyr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Rice and milk. (Sometimes called rice pudding)

[โ€“] anadem@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Grate a bit of nutmeg in for extra points.

And making it with 6 cups of milk to half a cup of rice and simmering until the liquid is very reduced produces a very intense deliciousness.

[โ€“] holgersson@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

In Germany, its called Milchreis and is a very popular dish especially for children. Rice (usually the thicker variants thats youd use for Risotto), milk, sugar, cinnamon

[โ€“] pickle_party247@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[โ€“] Iron_Lynx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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

[โ€“] RomanRoy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year 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.

Non-Sugared Peanut butter on waffles is surprisingly good, it changes it to a savory snack rather than a sweet one.

[โ€“] Saturdaycat@kbin.social 1 points 1 year 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

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 ๐Ÿ™ƒ

[โ€“] bananacles@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Orange slices and salt. ๐Ÿง‚๐ŸŠ

[โ€“] blkwolf@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

That actually makes sense if you like Phad Thai

Peanut butter on a nacho cheese Dorito. OMG I love that!

[โ€“] Thormjolnir@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year 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

[โ€“] Steam-Roller@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

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

[โ€“] goforliftoff@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Peanut butter and jelly sandwich with cheetos OR cheddar ruffles.

[โ€“] IninewCrow@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Reminds me of the story of 'Fool's Gold Loaf'

"It consists of a single warmed, hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with the contents of one jar of creamy peanut butter, one jar of grape jelly, and 1 pound (450 g) of bacon."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fool%27s_Gold_Loaf

As strange as this combination sounds ... I will attempt it one day

[โ€“] bananacles@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Coffee and fruit juice. โ˜•๐Ÿฅญ

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.

[โ€“] ratboy@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I always get a cup of coffee and glass of irange juice when I go out to breakfast, the acidity cuts through the coffee, it's so nice

[โ€“] Adiaphoros@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

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

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

[โ€“] catbottom@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

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.
