What ingredients do you like, but not together? I will start.

Tuna Noodle Casserole- I like them both but this makes me gag.
Garlic with Poultry- except of course if it is Mexican food.
Nutmeg on anything that is not a dessert.
Cheese on Spinach.
Cheese on French Dip Sandwich.-people seem to be putting cheese on everything these days.
 
Corn cooked in anything! I like it just fine in a little pile on my plate with butter, S&P. Mix it into anything...bleech!
 
Garlic in mashed potatoes!! ACK!!!!!!!


Were you reading my mind? I once went to a holiday Turkey dinner where there was GARLIC in the mashed potatoes!!!. And I put turkey gravy on them!!!. The WHOLE meal tasted like GARLIC! View attachment 8573
While I think GARLIC is a natural with beef, although I have never made them, I would not mind garlic mashed potatoes with a nice roast, as I cut slits in a beef roast and stuff with garlic slivers before roasting.:chef:

I prefer crackers with my soup rather than in it.

I have seen recipes for tuna noodle casserole that had cheese in it. I love cheese, and I love tuna noodle casserole, but I couldn't imagine cheese in it. :sick: The same with cheese on tuna sandwiches, or tuna in macaroni and cheese. Yuck.

PrincessFiona- Totally agree with you. Corn should be left alone.

msmofet- I don't mind a little garlic powder in my mashed potatoes, but actual garlic cloves, YUCK!

Barbara L- We should have soup together someday. My husband will take a whole handful of crackers and crush them into his soup, it drives me crazy.
I eat one cracker at a time with a spoonful of soup.

My it taste good away from eat other, but not together is...

1) Peanut butter and jelly, it's a sticky slippery feeling to me.
2) Celery in egg salad, the combo of eating something soft and then hitting something crunchy grosses me out.
3) Ketchup on a hotdog, it's just not right.

I'm sure I'll think of more.

Same here! My husband eats his just like your husband does, and I eat mine like you do.

Typically for me, cheese and fish don't work together but I am sure there are some that might.

I am not big on bananas in my pancakes either.Don't hate it but would prefer without.
 
Ketchup on eggs!! Especially eggs with runny yolks. Seeing what looks like a bloody murder scene makes me wanna barf!!

Ketchup on hot dogs just isn't right in my book either.

HOT tuna. I do like tuna in mac and cheese once in awhile BUT the tuna goes in cold after the mac and cheese is finished cooking and being mixed together.
 
I like to dip crackers in soup or drop a crisp crack onto the spoon of soup just before it goes into my mouth. The cracker has to crunch!! Something about mushy cracker mouth feel is yucky!
 
Marshmallows. I like em roasted on a stick but not added to any dish. Cereal treats, Jello salads, that abomination with oranges and cool whip, sweet potatoes, peanut butter sandwiches, etc.

I am a member of the crackerless soup club as well. Give me some buttered crackers or even with cheese on the side, but NEVER let even a crumb get into my soup! Dad and DH end up with something that more resembles oatmeal than soup when they get finished.

- I love rice and as mentioned I love my soup - but I don't care much for rice soups.
- Mushrooms and chicken are two foods I could survive on forever, and they can be served side by side - I just don't like them together, such as mushroom stuffed chicken or chicken in a mushroom sauce.
- Similarly, I love prawns/shrimp, scallops and fish as long as they are served on their own (with sides of course). I don't like seafood chowders, or in sauces, casseroles, etc. I can't do seafood and creamy anything!

This is what I came to post. I enjoy them both, but the thought of them together turns my stomach. To be fair though, I have never actually tasted the combo so I can not say that I would not actually like it if I tried it.
 
I have to agree on a lot of these.

If you're older than 10, you should not be allowed to put ketchup on a hot dog. Actually, I don't use ketchup much at all. Sometimes for fries and rings.

If someone puts in the effort make a soup for me, I don't need crackers to make it taste good.

I like Jell-O, I like salad. Cannot stand Jell-O salads.

I like sweets, I like savory but seldom like sweet stuff on my savory foods. e.g. meats with sweet fruit based sauces.

I don't put ketchup on ANYTHING. Just can't stand the stuff, but that could be because as I was growing up I was allergic to tomatoes and never acquired a taste for it.

So Andy, what if they put in no effort on the soup (ie from a can). Do you use crackers then? :LOL:

I forgot your last two - jello salads and sweet on meat are definite no's here too.

I love soups. I make them a lot in the winter and some in the summer too. I grew up eating homemade soups. I never had a canned soup until I was in my teens. I didn't like it then and don't like it now. If offered canned soup, I'd probably pass if I could do so politely and just eat the crackers.

BTW, aren't crackers just an easy substitution of good bread and butter?

I agree on homemade versus canned...I just couldn't resist calling you on that one :angel::LOL:

I also agree on the bread and butter, as long as it is homemade bread. I have gotten hooked on DH's gluten-free multi-grain crackers lately.
