Well, here in Italy they complain a lot about pineapple on pizza but then eat ham on melon

Salt and anything sweet. Salt is a flavor enhancer and can make sweet flavors pop even more.
Also coffee. It doesn't make bad coffee good coffee, but it makes it less bad. Doesn't help Starbucks coffee however, nothing can.
Mmm, salmiak... when you get that perfect hit of sweet and salty at once! π
Toast with peanut butter and sriracha. It's almost like a satay flavour, really good drunk snack!
Similarly, peanut butter & sambal on toast. It's basically savoury & spicy peanut sauce. Absolutely delightful.
Salsa with cream cheese. Looks like vomit, which is actually a plus because you don't have to share!
Peanut butter and jelly sandwich with cheetos OR cheddar ruffles.
Reminds me of the story of 'Fool's Gold Loaf'
"It consists of a single warmed, hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with the contents of one jar of creamy peanut butter, one jar of grape jelly, and 1 pound (450 g) of bacon."

As strange as this combination sounds ... I will attempt it one day
I've only ever tried it once, and no drugs were involved but a Irish o garlic bratwurst, and a Hershey chocolate bar. Sooo good.v
Peanut butter is a massively underrated burger condiment.
A burger isnβt supposed to be sweet thoughβ¦
Peanut butter goes really well in chicken flavor ramen.
Also peanut butter and pickles.
Allllso peanut butter and jelly.
Strawberries and black pepper.
Slice the strawberries and dip them in a bit of black pepper.
Black coffee and diet coke, I used to get it a lot like that hit or miss from McDonald's drive thru before they started selling it in a can.
It was pretty good! I like sweetened coffee but I also am a carbonation fiend so it really scratched both itches at the same time
Yea, this is surprising nice!
Have you tried coffee with light beer? (Lagers/pils, not the usual stouts)
On the fence for these π
I once added a bottle of cherry Pepsi to my crock pot when making pulled pork and it was damn good.
The liquids used for carnitas are generally: milk, Mexican coke, orange juice and water. I could see the cherry coke being bomb
I once added a bottle of cherry Pepsi to my crock pot when making pulled pork
was that on purpose or by accident?
On purpose but I was quite high
Bacon milkshake. Got to make sure the bacon is cooked proper to get some nice crumbles and it adds an amazing salty savory that really makes the milkshake flavor pop. Doesn't work with all flavors
coca-cola + hefeweizen = colaweizen
Sounds vile, is really tasty.
A pickle back! Pickle juice chaser with a shot of Jameson. i thought a pickle back was the most disgusting sounding thing until i tried it. it's a fantastic chaser for a shot of whiskey.
I ordered one once and the waiter didn't know what I was talking about so I just got a beer. He comes back later with a big smile on his face holding a glass with some liquid in it saying he brought me a pickleback. It was premixed. I shot it, it was a lot of liquid, and only once it was in my mouth did I realize they had used bread and butter pickle juice.
Grilled Cheese and Worcestershire sauce.
"Things that sound like an awful combination"
I don't feel that this one fits the bill. Why would those two flavours be awful together? Beef + cheese = good
It was just strange to me when someone told me about it, and when I tell other people they think it's strange too.
French fries and mayo
Half Europe does that :-)
In France people use (Dion) mustard with fries, strong but interesting.

That is... completely normal. Chilli aoli is actually the good one.
In the US, it's not very common unfortunately. That sounds delicious!
Rice and milk. (Sometimes called rice pudding)
Grate a bit of nutmeg in for extra points.
And making it with 6 cups of milk to half a cup of rice and simmering until the liquid is very reduced produces a very intense deliciousness.
