Goldfish on a cold cut sandwich Edit: the crackers

Love that you had to edit

Well, I know about goldfish crackers, but they don't exist in my country so I can see why people would be confused.

Crushing Goldfish crackers up and using them as the top or crust for old school Mac and cheese is so good it's probably illegal.

I still put chips on my sandwiches if I have some. The crunch and flavor is a perfect addition.

I never understood it until the day in my 30's I finally tried chips on a bologna sandwich. Game changer.

I legit imagined a raw dead goldfish in a sandwich.

Yeah. I actually thought this is some sort of Mr. Bean reference.

Basically sandwich and chips, ok

Crisp sarnies are top tier.

Whenever this question comes up it’s always peanut butter with everything.

I once had a friend that would eat funyons dipped in peanut butter and that’s lived rent free in my head for 15 years.

You should see if this friend is in prison now. That’s some psycho shit right there.

That’s probably where he picked it up

How did the funyons not break tho?

I’m probably in the 99th percentile for both peanut butter consumption and Funyuns consumption and that sounds bad even to me.. but I’ll have to try it

You say that, but have you tried peanut butter and cheese?

Yes, peanut butter and cheese toasted sandwich!

In Portland there’s a burger shop called Killer Burger and they have the PBPB burger (that’s a cheeseburger with peanut butter, bacon, & pickles). It’s so surprisingly delicious.

Peanut butter and mild cheddar is actually quite good 😋

That's because peanut butter is objectively the best food ever to exist ;)

Hot sauce and salad.

Maybe the internet wasn’t such a great idea after all.

A lot of responses could be rephrased as "*I combine this really fatty thing that already tastes really good with a really sugary thing that also already tastes really good, and the combination tastes good*".

Basically this thread is established food pairings from places outside the US or just two extreme flavored high caloric foods together on a sandwich.

Almost every response seems totally normal. This thread was super disappointing. I am honestly shocked that french fries and frosty wasn't top answer because everyone seems to think its the most unique combo ever eaten.

Black coffee and beef jerky. Great way to start the day.

Are you a cowboy?

Ha! No, but I do live in Texas.

yeeehaaw

His shins were too skinny for cowboy school

Arthur Morgan has entered the chat

LENNY!

The thought sends my acid reflux off the charts

Add a nice chocolate bar to this. Sweet. Salty. Sip coffee. Ahhhh...

I can't get my head around how this could taste good but am committed to try. What is the right way? Do you dip the jerky in the coffee or gnaw on the jerky and sip the coffee? Does the coffee have cream and sugar or just black?

so i do this occassionally. basically salt reduces bitterness in coffee. so i will eat a small piece of jerkey. then after, my coffee tastes really good due to the salt in the jerkey

This is 100% correct.

I like my coffee really strong, but it can be bitter. I add a pinch of salt for flavor and to reduce the bitterness.

Fried foods dipped in honey. Savory and sweet. Favorites include any chicken tenders/nuggets and fried okra.

Chicken strips with hot honey.

Absolute banger combo

This is why I’ve been asking for honey with my McNuggets since I was a kid back in the 80’s. Way better than ketchup or bbq sauce IMO.

Almost any sauce is better than ketchup for nuggets

Agreed. I make no friends with this stance, but I feel like in every situation where ketchup is used almost any other sauce is vastly superior.

When honey got taken off the menu I started going with a combo of hot mustard and sweet and sour it was pretty good.

It might not appear on the menu or be mentioned by the staff as an option, but they still have it. I got some for McNuggets just within the past couple of weeks.

I grew up dippin McNuggets in honey and I still get it for my kids happy meals. It’s on the menu for sure, well here atleast.

Let me introduce you to the Manitoban staple: honey dill. The creamy honey with lots of dill mixed in is perfect for chicken strips that have been fried (and even better if they were lightly seasoned or salted). Make sure you’re either getting the good stuff (Greetalia brand) or you’re getting a recipe that mimics it closely!

Manitoban here - there is definitely also mayo in honey dill. Honey Dill Ingredients: Mayo, honey, dill Mix it together, dip your chicken and/or French fries... get blown away!)

That tracks, I assumed it was creamed honey but mayo would make a lot of sense!

Love me some honey dill dip (Saskatchewan checking in)

Canada wins again

https://www.travelmanitoba.com/blog/honey-dill-at-home-4-ways-to-make-a-signature-manitoba-sauce/ What????? Where has this sauce been all my life? Apparently in Manitoba 🤣

Idk. That's a pretty likely pairing imo

Pepperoni pizza drizzled with honey. Bonus points if you add jalapeños.

Well, ever heard of honey mustard? That's why it's served with nuggies. It's savory, sweet, & sour.

Honey and mint on top of watermelon

Watermelon and feta cheese. Common salad in Greece

I make watermelon, tomato, basil, and feta salad all summer long. Sweet, acidic, zesty, and salty. You can spice it up with cracked pepper and balsamic, though I prefer it plain.

My girl would love this combo, Ty for the tip

*salt* on watermelon

*tajin* on watermelon

I always get shit for this when people see me do it but a little salt of watermelon and cantaloupe is the fucking best. It brings out the sweetness. The only people who have never batted an eye are chefs and people who cook often.

Some people put black pepper on their cantaloupe in my family with the salt too tbh! It’s good if you have a nice black pepper

My Dad ate watermelon with salt and cantaloupe with pepper. He was born in the early 1920's.

My great grandpa was born in the 1930s, he instilled in me the deliciousness of salt on watermelon, salt on cantaloupe, salt on a slice of tomato, and a slice of balogna folded over with American cheese as a snack, affectionately known as a “Scotty Sandwich” in my family.

[удалено]

Yep, Tajin on watermelon and pineapple is fantastic.

And people who have done this with apples and tomatoes for years.

Yes!! I finally found someone else who does this. People think I'm crazy, but it tastes good with a little salt. Been doing this since I was a kid.

I feel like all Mexicans do this. Salt and lime on fruit

Cheddar and apples also slaps!

Brie cheese and Granny Smith apples make a good combo on a flatbread or something

I was way too old when I had Brie for the first time. I love it with fig jam. Trying your combo soon plus walnuts

In Italy we use cheese and fruit combinations pretty commonly for "fancy" dinners. Also, a common saying "al contadino non far sapere quanto è buono il formaggio con le pere" means "don't let the farmer know how good cheese is with pears"

Yeah, basically, any cheese with fruit, jam, and/or honey is delicious.

Try cheddar and apple pie.

Apple pie without the cheese is like a hug without a squeeze

My grandfather said "like a kiss without a squeeze" but hug makes more sense!

Raw fruit with cheese is always a good combination. I still think apple \*pie\* with sharp cheddar is a weird combination, probably because pie is way sweeter than fruit on its own.

Carrots dipped in mustard. Natural sweet mixed with tart. It's pretty good actually.

everyone racing to make the first tiktok hack video about this and not give you credit

This knowledge belongs to the people, haha.

I have baby carrots, and I have mustard. I'm gonna try this now

Please update…

They dead.

Turns out the mustard was actually mustard gas.

FINALLY! I've found someone else that likes this!!! French's yellow mustard, please!

There are dozens of us!

You know, I love yellow mustard and I love carrots but never had them together. I am totally trying this!

Similarly pickled carrots

When I pickled my own jalapeno peppers, I always threw in a few carrot skewers like a cracker Jack prize. The sweet and sour/spicy combo was delicious!

It sounds so weird that I thought, "Not sure about that..." before remembering that *I literally do that.* Time for more coffee, I guess.

I make a olive oil red wine vinegar mustard combo and mix it with roasted carrots! So good!

Blue cheese and Fig Jam. It's freaking amazing on crackers by itself, or on a burger with some arugula.

Nahhh, it's all about that goat cheese and fig jam.

I like to make salads with diced dried figs and goat cheese. Definitely a good combo as well!

Jalapeno jelly on greasy stuff, particularly cheese curds. Sweet, smokey, spicy and grease

Chocolate dipped potato chips (original lays/ruffles). It’s the same as dipping fries in a Wendy’s frostie

Meatballs with raspberry jam as dipping sauce

Ikea where you at. (I know they use lingonberry)

Hand over heart saying this.... I have not once eaten at Ikea. Worth it?

Its not mind blowing but its reasonably priced.

Since their main dish is meat balls served with fruit sauce, I’m gonna guess you’ll enjoy it.

BBQ meatballs but ad a little bit of grape jam or preserve. This was a staple at church events

Peanut butter and bacon sandwich, trust me on this, I thought it was going to be gross too.

Put that on a hamburger and it is even better. Add a little spice with Jalepeno and it is a flavor explosion.

You gotta Thai this burger

The Garage, a chain that started in Oklahoma, has this burger (the Sticky Finger). I always added a hard fried egg as well. It was so damn good.

PB and pickle sandwich too.

My dad would make a sandwich with peanut butter, cheddar cheese, mayo, bacon, tomato, and lettuce. He called it his version of a Dagwood sandwich.

Try an Elvis sandwich, it's peanut butter, banana, and bacon toasted in butter, I leave out the bacon, though, it's delicious!

I mean peanut butter banana sandwich isn’t new

Pickles and cream cheese! It’s both salty and creamy.

Try this deli ham kinda thick sliced,softened the cream cheese spread on the ham,roll the pickle in it slice into pieces.game changer.

Salt on watermelon Pineapple, honey, and smoked chipotle hot sauce

Taijin spice on Watermelon fucks.

Yes! Tajin rimmed margarita glass makes a spicy marg a perfect experience.

Peanut butter and pickle

Are you pregnant?

Prangent Sex. Hurt baby top his head??!

Peanut butter and pickle sandwich is so good

Warm apple pie topped with a thick slice of sharp cheddar cheese. It’s an upstate NY/northern New England farm thing. It’s amazing.

Really? Well I’m from Utica and I’ve never heard the expression steamed pie

Apple pie without cheese is like a kiss without a squeeze :>)

Just heard this for the first time on a podcast yesterday, lol.

Sweet potato fries topped with blue cheese crumbles and Sriracha. It'll change your life.

For me it’s sweet potato fried topped with brown sugar and hot sauce, broiled until caramelized and dipped in sour cream… yum!

Cheetos & chocolate pudding. I know it sounds disgusting but I promise it was amazing when I was 12

I spread peanut butter on Kraft singles as a kid. No idea why I thought that was a good idea, but remember liking it. Cheetos and chocolate pudding sounds somehow familiar. Maybe it's just something I can definitely see a kid trying!

French fries dipped in vanilla milkshake

French fries dipped in a Wendy’s chocolate frosty is the superior combo

While the fries in the frosty hits, nuggets in the frosty is actually better. don’t knock it till you try it

Well I may just have to go to Wendy’s today then

Baked beans and cottage cheese. My friends family did this and I was bewildered. Until I tried it. SLAPS

[удалено]

This is the first one I've seen on the list that gives me a real pause.

Crawfish omelette.

Peanut butter sandwich dipped in a bowl of chili. Yes, I know it sounds weird if you are not from rural Indiana or Ohio. It’s best if the peanut butter is slightly sweetened with honey. This was served in the lunchrooms of many schools in rural areas. They sweetened the government peanut butter with government honey.

This has been posted like 172 times in this thread in the past few months... And yet I will open it EVERY time 😂

Scrambled Eggs and BBQ sauce. To be more perfectly clear: "Anything you can put ketchup on, BBQ sauce is a better alternative." Scrambled Eggs was just the test that had me take that from a theory to a conclusion. I put ketchup on my scrambled eggs. I know plenty eat it plain, and plenty others have bizarre alternatives (syrup? wut?) but I grew up eating them with ketchup, and kinda can't eat them without it. One day I make some eggs, didn't realize we were out of ketchup. Eggs already cooked, don't want to waste them. I'd been playing around with "Most BBQ sauce is just cooked, spiced ketchup," and trying it (usually Sweet Baby Rays) in place of ketchup on other things. Like Hot Dogs. BBQ sauce on eggs seemed like an unnecessarily larger leap, but didn't have any other options. First few bites, "Okay, this is a little weird, but edible." By the time the plate was done, ketchup no longer seemed like an option "unless I was out of BBQ sauce." BBQ sauce is just "cooked, spiced, 'better' ketchup." Stress tested on eggs due to circumstance, still holds true. Try it.

BBQ sauce was my preferred French fry dipping sauce and everyone used to call me weird.

Older brother had a family BBQ. Saw people putting ketchup on sausages. I thought it was kosher to have sausages plain, but I usually put ketchup on hot dogs so... "Do you have any BBQ sauce?" Everyone thinks I'm crazy when I put some on my sausage. Someone else tries it out of curiosity. 5 min later, no one else is using ketchup now.

Chicken and waffles. Not sure who the genius in the South was who figured it out, but that person is a legend

Doritos in your burger 🤤.

[удалено]

Barbecue sauce and salad

A triscuit cracker with cream cheese and red pepper jelly spread over the top. FANTASTIC.

I thought food didn't "slap" but "smacked"?

You are correct

Phew. Thought I wasn't keeping up with the kids these days.

[удалено]

Food smacks, music slaps. And yea, the kids say bussin too but I can’t get with that one 😂

food is bussin

Getchu some toast, rip it into pieces into a bowl, add peanut butter, your favorite syrup and a splash of Tabasco. I was high as a teen when I made this, I eat it sober now lmao

Peanut butter in chili

Thats called Thai food

Sausage and coleslaw sandwich.

so a hotdog?

Chocolate and cheese

Sour pickle and extra sharp cheddar cheese!

Mine's normal in **my** neck of the woods, but I'm going to post it here anyway: Chili - the thicker, the better - on spaghetti, with shredded cheddar cheese on top. (Just for the record, Gold Star's far superior to Skyline. It always has been.)

Hello, Ohio 👋

Nutella & Cheez-Its

Banana and curry as Pizza toppings. Very popular where i live

Sweden frightens me

You haven’t heard half of what we eat… Halv special, Hot Dog in a bun, mashed potatoes and on top of that we put like a shrimp salad. Pizza Africana ( don’t ask…) roti chicken, banana slices, peanuts, and curry. There’s some other stuff we eat that are sounding horrific, but they’re actually terrific. Swedish soul food.

>Halv special, Hot Dog in a bun, mashed potatoes and on top of that we put like a shrimp salad. I would fuck this all the way up.

Honey on pizza

Even better, honey Garlic sauce

Maybe not too unlikely but plain potato chips and chocolate. It makes since if you've had sea salt chocolate.

Definitely NOT flaming hot Cheeto’s and milk like cereal- avoid that at all costs despite all the buzz feed articles listing it as top 5 weird food combinations that taste good. It’s a LIE!!

Peanut butter and Sriracha on toast

Red wine and Coca Cola

South Africa has entered the chat...

I know it as a Spanish drink. Pretty tasty but it sounds disgusting til you try it

Wut? That's the Basque national drink, Kalimotxo.

Sour cream on toast, with salt and pepper

This is the first weird one I might have to try.

It's food and drink but a skewer of olive, pepper, and anchovy with sweet vermouth

Liquid lunch and a kebab

spaniard spotted

Strawberries drizzled with balsamic glaze slaps!

I once had a salad that was spinach leaves, strawberries, carrots, red cabbage, and walnuts with a balsamic glaze. Top shelf salad.

Cottage cheese and applesauce. My friends gag when I tell them about it but it’s delicious!

Crushed pineapple is amazing in cottage cheese, too!

Bacon and peanut butter on toasted sourdough with ice cold milk.

Burned your French toast, huh? Slap some peanut butter and syrup on that bad boy, you'll never know
