Weird food pairings: What’s your favourite odd combo?

Hey there, members! How have you all been? I hope you’re doing well and enjoying the little things in life. :)

I’ve been having this strange yet delicious combo lately: Greek yoghurt with peanut butter. I know it sounds odd, but trust me, the creamy tartness of the yoghurt mixed with the rich, salty peanut butter is chef’s kiss 😋 . My partner gives me the strangest looks every time I eat it, but hey, it’s my go-to snack these days.

This got me thinking... we all have our weird food quirks, don’t we? Those combinations that others might raise an eyebrow at, but to us, they’re comfort food. It could be something as simple as dipping chips in ice cream (I swear, it’s better than it sounds) or even pizza topped with pineapple. Do you have any strange food pairings that you absolutely love?

Don’t be shy; share them with us here—we won’t judge! Who knows, maybe you’ll even convince someone to try your unusual mix (and change their life forever, ;)).

Hi members
My delightful roll, we start by cutting the roll from the top and through about three quarters, butter both sides, peanut butter to one side and jam the other, any type.
Then fill the roll with roast chicken and a dash of salt, for me pour on black pepper. Next, place on top of the chicken cheese, once again you can choose, vintage aged cheddar cheese for me.
The roll contents are complete. However one more important step, place the roll under the grill to melt the cheese and heat the roll until a little crunchy. This is my favourite concoction, now eat.
 
Tim Tam,s with Gorgonzola cheese spread on top 😋.
Don't knock it till you try it . You will be totally surprised .
 
My contribution to gastronomy is the cucumber and Vegemite sandwich. Yum!

Don't knock it till you've tried it.
 
I like to pair Vegemite and honey on toast.

My fav sandwich is just slightly toasted wholemeal bread (my home made bread) with peanut butter but that has to be no sugar or salt, honey and vintage cheese. Just lovely

Sorry won't try that one not a fan of tomato sauce, but I love crumpets with so much butter on them it runs down your chin when you bite into it.

Vegemite and honey together on toast. Delicious
 
I get the scowl and how could you when, in front of friends and family, i eat Mangoes with sour cream, but honestly, it's delicious
 
Vegemite, celery and walnuts on whole grain rolls.
 
My favourite food is a celery stick with Vegemite and rolled up leg ham inside the celery....i grew up eating weird food combination like this and also a fresh iceberg lettuce leaf from the garden put vinegar and white sugar and roll it up....
 
Yes Vella I love "Peanutbutter and honey together " YUM YUM.
 
I think the abundance of fresh lemon trees in my backyard as a child encouraged this 78 year old memory to be shared. As a teenager & young pregnant woman I loved to sit in bed at night with a cut lemon, salt & spoon & eat away, loved it. I can feel some shuddering but to me it was loverly.

You forgot the tequila....
 
As a child, my after school snack was vanilla ice cream topped with All Bran and copious amounts of strawberry topping.

Around the same time, a schoolmate's breakfast comprised of dry Corn Flakes doused in tomato sauce....nothing else!
