I was talking to my dad tonight and we were laughing about how my grandfather would put the grossest foods together. For instance, he would (not often, mind you) put HORSERADISH on his ice cream!


So I got to thinking about what weird combos I'm guilty of. This isn't original, but I do like catchup on my scrambled eggs. I also have had an "Elvis" sandwich -- bread with peanut butter, bacon, a banana, drizzled with honey then grilled like a grilled cheese sandwich.
I probably lost a few years off my lifespan for eating that, but it was YUMMY!!

So what weird food combinations do you enjoy?

I like fries or chicken strips dipped in white gravy and I also have this snack food I like. You heat up mild cheddar dip. And then get some nacho cheese doritos and pepperoni and dip the pepperoni and the chips in the mild cheddar dip its oh so good.

Fries and chicken strips in white gravy is pretty common around here (Oklahoma).

My family always did something that others thought was weird, but everyone who has tried it has loved it. Gingerbread covered with chocolate fudge sauce. It is a really good side with homemade chicken noodle soup.

Fun thread!

When I was pregnant, I loved popcorn with either grape jelly or pineapple jelly on it!

I do love a cold Wendy's Frosty with french fries though...oh yeah!

One of my favs is a room temp flour tortilla...a little on the firm side...with peanut butter & jelly......do not...I repeat...DO NOT knock this until you've tried it!!! It is soooooo good!!!

Here too (MN) they actually serve that at Dairy Queen

Lets see...

I LOVE fries dipped in chocolate shakes, anywhere, any kind, but McDonalds are the best

I like eating cold pizza and drinking a big glass of orange juice together, everytime I say that around my Grandpa, he tells me he's going to barf


When I was little I used to eat rasins in a bowl of milk

The list goes on, but I can't really remember anymore, but I'm sure I will once I see other people's combinations!

I've tried that!!! i really like it, too.

When I was a kid I loved Miracle Whip and Jelly sandwitches. GROSS!!!

Now I really love:

- Waffles with peanut butter and chocolate syrup
- Yogurt and Pretzels
- And when Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m pregnant Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]ll drink whole glasses of pickle juice.


My kids really like popcorn in milk.

My mom was the worst, though. She loved pigs feet, raw rice, raw hamburger meat (I'm not kidding), and raw spaghetti. She also loved spinach and sardines straight from the can and her FAVORITE was the cartilage off of a chicken bone. Oh my gosh, it would make me sick to hear her crunching on that stuff.


Those aren't really combinations of anything but they gross me out all the same!

I like to stuff french fies between 2 dill pickles. The combination is delicious. I also love cottage cheese with potato chips on top of it.
