Weird Food Combinations!

Okay, I've dipped carrots in ketchup when I was a kid but now I much prefer ranch dressing. Although out of desperation I did dip them in Thousand Island before. :) I also have had a bowl of green grapes swimming in Cool Whip and that was pretty tasty. I almost tried fries dipped in a Frosty (I have a friend who does that) as well as fries with mayo..but neither seemed too appealing. :lol:

Being half Chinese, I eat this : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zongzi

My wife and friends think it is weird.

Sweet bean roll! :slurp:

My mom's family is Irish-Polish. It's not unusual for them to serve traditional Polish food like pierogis (potato dumplings) and cabbage leaves stuffed with meat and rice, alongside corned beef with potato and egg salad. At events, one of my aunts takes a Crockpot and fills it with kielbasa slices, ketchup, and grape jelly. It simmers all day, and the sauce is surprisingly good.

Our daughter comes up with strange food combinations on occasion, like peanut butter and banana sandwiches with bacon on buttered toast.

My cooking is heavily influenced by her dairy allergy, my love of world cuisine, limited funds, and having to learn how to cook in self-defense. (My mom is not very adept in the kitchen.) As a result, meals vary wildly from Cajun to Middle East to Thai.

Our new neighborhood has plenty of variety in restaurant choice. Greek, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, regional American cooking... plus, within a few miles there are also Indian, Vietnamese, and Moroccan restaurants. The sushi restaurant serves a sushi pizza: the crust is made of tempura-dipped rice and cream cheese, and topped with eel, avocado and tobiko. For dessert, they serve a mango/strawberry tempura roll with chocolate sauce for dipping. :slurp:


I'm very happy that our kids have adventurous taste buds! :D

Some of these just sound horrible.

Some that I agree with

ketchup sandwiches
bologna with ketchup
mashed potatoes with ketchup

french fries with mayonaise
and I can only eat mac n cheese if I have cream style corn to mix in it

and one more cheetos in my spaghettios

We were dipping our fries in our McDonald's chocolate shakes way before Dave Thomas invented the Frosty!

I do bologna & ketchup sandwiches, dip my fries in ranch or honey mustard, put ketchup on scrambled eggs, my ham & cheese sandwich has to have real butter. I also put peanuts & pancake syrup on vanilla ice cream, and put ketchup in my chicken noodle soup.

DH ate Miracle Whip sandwiches as a kid; now he eats them with peanut butter & cucumber along with about an inch of Miracle Whip (I can't watch him when he eats those.) He also puts hot sauce on pickled eggs.

I don't know if it's too weird, I'm sure I'm not the only person to do it - but I stick french fries into my burgers. Only at McD's though. :slurp:

Here in the Pittsburgh area, there is a restaurant called Pirmanti Brothers that serves all their sandwiches with the french fries and cole slaw on the sandwich itself. Makes for a messy meal but we love it!!

Joe's Deli serves choice of coleslaw or sauerkraut on their sandwiches, like Reubens.

Bryan likes tartar sauce or curry sauce on fries. We've been using the curry sauce on fish & chips, and also on our couscous dinners.

I prefer sweet potato fries with honey for dipping. I like taco fixings or pineapple and bacon on pizza. I've pretty much tried a lot of things, but the one thing that I won't eat is liver and onions, which my grandpa loved. :hurl:

Cheeburger, Cheeburger offers a wide selection of toppings on burgers, some of which sound pretty odd, like peanut butter and jelly, but mostly they are pretty good. It's just a shame that we don't eat there much any more. (One waitress liked that Bryan tipped her well, so now any time we eat there, she makes sure to be our waitress. Which would not be a problem if she didn't annoy the heck out of us.)
