    ichigo Weird food combos!

    Apparently people used to eat tomatoes with sugar back in the middle-ages, so the other day I tried it out of curiosity.. and it was actually very good.

    What weird or abnormal food combos do you like?

    My girlfriend likes peanut butter and pickle sandwiches.

    I think she's a demon.

    Sugar cuts through the natural acidity of tomatoes. My mom used to add a spoonful of sugar to her tomato sauces to mask some of the acidity. Adding onions to a tomato sauce can do the same thing since onions have a natural sweetness.

    As for weird food combos. I really really like toasted/salted seaweed with any sort of sweet fruit, watermelon, strawberries, peaches, etc. It's all about contrasting flavors, the sweet and the salty.

    I know it's not really a food, yet I had a drink that was basically half-melted Ice Cream mixed with a lot of sugar. It tasted great, though that may have just been because all I could taste was sugar...

    Chicken Nuggets and Ice Cream is probably the nicest weird food combination I've ever had.

    Take a strawberry, dip it in sour cream, then dip that in brown sugar. It is AWESOME.

    Exactly.

    I know that sugar goes in tomato sauce, but sugar on a fresh cut tomato is different. More like candy fruits like Jojee said.

    I like mixing Breine with Angel Delight.

    When spoken out loud, that sounds disgusting because it actually sounds like brain.
