If french fries dipped in a Wendy's Frosty is your thing, what else? Maybe you find yourself in the camp of those suggestion that Pineapple is an acceptable topping on a pizza (it is). Perhaps you're one of those sick demons who dips their fries in straight mayonnaise.
Okay, maybe those aren't the best examples. French fries and a Frosty have been a thing since Jesus rode dinosaurs. Pineapple on pizzas is a question as old as Methuselah. But what about some combinations of food that the thought others might spark a weaker person's gag reflex? Over the years, I've devoured a few doozies!
1. PB&J with Doritos
Yes, it most certainly it, my friendly bear. Don't knock it until you've tried. Can't really explain it, but it works.
2. Jackson Coney Dogs & Chocolate Milk
Now, ya' gotta throw inhibitions to the wind on this one. I was even skeptical of the coney dogs combined with chocolate milk, although my grandfather counted this among life's finest pleasures (may he rest in peace). This might not work with not-so-awesome Detroit Coney Dog (shots fired). Ya' have to swing by Prison City (Jackson, MI) and get one a wiener slathered in ground-up beef heart and diced onions.
3. Sour Patch Kids and Strawberry Wine
Weird, but not so weird. This combination was born the night following a surreal return trip from Chicago. My then paramour and I desired something other than each other's embrace. Strawberry dessert wine and Sour Patch Kids it was, and that's what we enjoyed.
4. Peanut butter on a burger
Having consumed more than a dozen burgers including peanut butter as a condiment, I shouldn't still be an unbeliever. Yet, I still believe can't fathom how the taste buds make sense of this combination.
5. Ramen and Spam
Ignore for a second that there's enough sodium to cause instantaneous heart problems. I'm developing edema just thinking about this, but it doesn't change the fact that I adore me some SPAM and Ramen.
6. Pizza rolls and sweat 'n' sour sauce
Ah, pizza rolls, the preferred sustenance of teenage boys playing D&D in their parents' basements everywhere. Maybe it's not too far a stretch, but people still tend to give me confused looks when I say I like this combination.
7. Salt on apples
Salting an apple? Say it ain't so! This is one I see all the time, but it horrifies me. I'll say no more. *gag*
