Favorite Odd Food Combinations?


Quote  |  Reply

So yesterday I was really craving either a plain glazed donut or honeybun with cheese. Like just a stick of cheddar or mozzarella or something like that. I remember in elementary they would serve a warm donut and then just a piece of cheese cut off a big block and that's always been a favorite of mine. My boyfriend thinks it's weird, even though he has some weird food combos (like peanut butter and chocolate cake frosting sandwiches) but I think it's wonderful. I also like pretzels dipped in honey mustard, I'm not good with eating things like crackers nd chips dry.

So I'm interested in hearing what your favorite weird food must-haves are!

sweet potatoes with cottage cheese and cinnamon sugar, pickles and ketchup, banana bread and cream cheese

Sugar-free strawberry preserves on celery sticks with cinnamon.

"Weird combo's" my family&friend think are weird;

  • Soft pretzel with salsa
  • Pb&Sugar sandwich (I don't do this anymore but when I was little I used to put two tablespoons of peanut butter and sugar on two slices of bread)
  • Mustard on fries or hashbrowns
  • BBQ on hashbrowns
  • Peanut butter in my oatmeal- my mom thinks thats weird! No kidding!
  • Cinnamon on my popcorn
  • Soy "Icecream" in my oatmeal
  • Fries dipped in soy chocolate smoothie

My sister likes ketchup in her mac&cheeze, I think that's so gross! xP

With the exception of the ketchup on mac&cheese, I eat all of those! I guess I'm weird too!

Baked sweet potato with cottage cheese and pepper.

Veggies dipped in salsa.

Tuna, pinto beans, tomato and lettuce in a pita.

 

Green apple slices topped with slices of fontina cheese.

I swear to God, this is orgasmically good. :D

I dip all sorts of veggies mostly broccoli in BBQ sauce or ketchup. And pasta sauce too. I don't know why people think it's weird, but they always comment on it.

Cottage cheese and chili,   Lays potato chips crumbled in ice cream,  cottage cheese and tuna,   tomato juice or V8 and beer (of course, we Texans just call this "Red beer")...that's all I can think of right now...

A ton of people I know like putting ketchup on everything, but I have a different obsession: salsa.  If I have something that normally comes with a spread (like bread, toast, a bagel), I put salsa on it.  Salsa bagels are my favorite!

Oh my gosh - cottage cheese and chili sounds amazing!

I love mustard - I put WAAAAY "too much" of it on everything! I also use it to top any kind of salad. I also like pickle and mustard sandwiches.

I don't think I really have any really odd combos.. but people find it gross that I eat cereal with water - I hate milk, and I hate dry cereal! Haha.

Kidney beans and toast is REALLY yummy... I thought it was normal, but everyone's like "EW!".

Have you tried other kinds of milk-- soy milk, rice milk, oat milk, almond milk? They're all really good in their own ways, and they taste distinctly different from cow's milk.

Oh man - where do I begin?!

-1 cup low fat/fat free cottage cheese mixed with 1 tablespoon of unsweetened cocoa powder, sweetener and cinnamon
-Popcorn in my soup
-ketchup on any vegetable.  literally.  ANY.
-popcorn dipped in lemonade
-tuna + cottage cheese
-coffee in my cereal
-hot sauce on my broccoli
-plain cooked spinach with smoked flavoring

These aren't THAT odd - I'm having a brain fart.  D:

I used to like dunking powdered donuts into apple juice. It's sooo yummy. But I haven't had a donut in months.

I like grape jelly and maragine together on toast.

Pickles on anything.

haha When I was a kid I would dunk my chocolate donuts into orange juice.
So many of these things sound absolutely DELICIOUSSSS haha. I just eat obscene amounts of cinnamon. Like, it's hard for me to come up with something that cinnamon can't make taste better haha. People get confused when I make my egg whites sweet with cinnamon. but omg it's soooo good.

I've heard that cinnamon is really good for sugar metabolism, so maybe I'll start putting cinnamon on new things!

"people find it gross that I eat cereal with water"

I eat raisin bran with water.  I hate milk!  Soy milk is pretty good, but I like it with water! I pick out all the raisins first though, because raisins are gross too.  :)   One of my wierd combos is graham crackers dipped in lemonade.  Sweet and lemony --  mmm! 

Because everything I eat is considered weird anyhow, I have a hard time answering this. I eat so much international stuff, instead of "American".

I'm OCD and hate my food to touch usually, BUT I like to take yeast rolls, stuff mash potatoes in and green beans.

It was a survival tactic as a kid when eating school lunch. They always had those things, but the rest of the meal would be like Salisbury steak, or something drowned in gravy. I can't stand that stuff, so I discovered that not only could I get mine, but the other kids didn't want their veggies, so we would trade. I got the veggies and rolls, they got my nasty greasy meat.

because I hate gravy and stuff, I also adapted to my mom's rather dry cooking by taking whatever meat I did like, steak, shnitzel, porkchops, chicken, and would scrape up some mashed potatoes, dab it in corn, then stab a peice of meat. yum. It felt like KFC ripped me off when they started their chicken bowls, but they add gravy and cheese, gross. (her food's good now when I visit, but I can't break the habit now.)

i honestly dont know when it started or how but for as long as i can remember i cannot enjoy a tuna sandwhich without microwaved popcorn. not on it but with it. iits gross without popcorn.

 

i also use olivio buttery spray on EVERYTYHING we wil leave it at that ;)

I like odd sweet potato combinations too!  I like mine with mashed avocado and lime juice with a bit of cilantro and green onion and a sprinkling of cheese.
