Visiting Iceland I was just introduced to licorice and chocolate (mostly in the form of chocolate covered licorice candy bars). In some parts of the world, like the US, I think this is an unfamiliar combination, but it's pretty good.

Man, I just couldn't bring myself to try it. I will eat just about anything, but black licorice is not my favorite. I did have hakarl and chased it with some Black Death, though!
I'm sure people like french fries and a hot fudge sundae together. But I actually like sticking the fries in the ice cream itself and eating it that way.
Oh yeah! Ice cream burger shop near me sells a Sicilian orange sherbet. So good with fries!
Reminds me of dipping french fries in a wendy's frosty. I love it.
Waffles with cream cheese and blueberry jam. I personally don’t think it’s that weird but I’ve gotten looks from roommates.
that sounds like deconstructed cheesecake. I gotta try this.
Peanut butter in garlic bread
I know PBJ is already a thing, but toasted peanut butter and banana sandwiches are actual power food.
I can totally get behind this! I had an Elvis burger once (PB, bacon, caramelized banana, burger patty) and it was amazing, but I was also drunk at the time.
Am bodybuilder. Canned tuna + cottage cheese w/ salt + pepper
Match made in heaven and hell
Former PLer/OLer here. I used to eat some strange combos to get my protein/macros. I feel you!
Sometimes I like to dip the end of a french fry in just a bit of pickle juice, then into some good powdered parmesan cheese.
Dude, a small spoon of cottage cheese on a Lay's original potato chip. It's so amazing.
Pineapple and anchovy pizza.
Salty and sweet! Nice.
Chicken nuggets dipped in apple sauce. This discovery dates back to when I was a kid, and it was Dad's turn to cook dinner.
I put some pickled cowboy popcorn salt on some rice with seasoning salt. Tasted ridiculously good.
Mandarin oranges/clementines in cottage cheese
I like any tangy fruit! Chunky pineapple works well, too. The salty and sweet and tangy combo is amazing.
Banana and pesto. Thank me later
Rice with mayo. It was pretty much all I ate when I was 16.
I lived in Micronesia when I was young, and I have memories of people, including myself, eating that. Now I can't imagine wanting that combo, but I believe it was not uncommon there.
Here in Brazil it's very unusual. Rice is usually combined with beans.
Peanut butter and cheese.
Peanut butter and pickles.
Peanut butter and raw onion slices.
Peanut butter and tuna fish.
I've tried peanut butter combined with the strangest pairings I can imagine. They've all been excellent.
Just a heads up, let's try to phrase post titles in the form of a question, please. The rule is pretty lax for the moment, but will be enforced further down the line with the use of an automoderator bot.
Popcorn and siracha, eaten with chopsticks to keep your fingers clean.
When I was young, I put ketchup and apple sauce on my broccoli because I hated the taste of it. I don't put it on the broccoli anymore but I still mix ketchup and apple sauce together.
Soy sauce and sour cream. As in, a cold dollop of sour cream on reheated leftover Asian takeout. For breakfast.
Nilla Wafers and sharp cheddar cheese. Sometimes I add grapes or berries to the mix if I’m feeling saucy.
Peanut butter, jelly, salami, and giardiniera.
When I see suggestions like this o don't know of it would ever work for me. I could eat peanut butter out of the jar by the fistful. I tend to go way overboard with it when I use it.
The only reason I tried it was because it was free. My friend's sister was the manager at a Potbelly and said she'd make me a new sandwich if I didn't love it.
I love all the ingredients separately but it sounds absolutely disgusting together....but it was not. DELICIOUS!
Goldfish and dump in a "sharing size" bag of peanut m&ms. It's that perfect mix of salt and sweet ... I call it my fat kid trailmix
yesterday i added an entire little can of chipotles and their adobo to my bolognese sauce for pasta. turned out very good.
A peanut butter and mayo sandwich.
Jello and Ice cream.
Little cubes of jello (I had red) with a vanilla or neutral-ish ice cream.
I was skeptical, as two tasty things don’t always mesh, but this was too intriguing to pass up, I’m glad I did not.
I think my Aussie friend eats this? She refers to jello as jelly, but same thing. I don't know if it's just her or if it's an Australian thing.
Peanut butter pickle sandwich. Toasted bread, spicy pickles, and crunchy peanut butter.
When I was younger: Vanilla ice cream & maple syrup. Talk about a sugar high!
My favorite food combo of all time:
Original Rold Gold pretzels with ripe purple grapes and extra sharp cheddar cheese all go into the mouth at once. Then as your chewing take a sip of Dr. Pepper. Life changing.
Fresh cheddar (bonus if in curd form) , warmed in microwave with maple syrup. Sweet, salty, fatty.
Pasta and custard
Sounds sort of like kugle or kheer!
or even a stringy tapioca dish.mmmmmm
So, less of a food and more of an interesting drink... but pickle backs! I have only met two kinds of people, ones that have never tried them, and ones that love them!
You get a shot of cheap well whisky, and a chaser of pickle brine. Different bars that have em will have different pickels, so there's a big of variety. IMO, its best with brine that is a little sweet, and medium on the spice.
I'm also a fan of herbal drinks, so sometimes I'll throw in a bottle of underburg as a chaser to the chaser.
