Weird combinations?! My husband puts sour cream to EVERYTHING! I surely don't care for it unless it's in my baked potatoes.

strange beverage combo of HH's: shot of Grand Marnier followed by a Tab chaser.
He loves it. I'm disgusted.

My dad always enjoyed leftover fried chicken with his chocolate cake.

well let's see: I like yellow salad mustard on french fries. Put nice fresh shrimp on a pizza Margherita and I'm in heaven. And to top it off, not only do I like liver, but liver with bacon and garlicy tomato sauce is so wonderful!
and I like every kind of fish I've ever met, however you fix it.
But I will no longer eat brains of any type however it's fixed because it is no longer safe, and I do require knowing where my raw fish is coming from.

Barbara, I love that too!Barbara L said:I will never know why people think this is weird, but one of my favorite combinations is ice cold cottage cheese with nice hot baked beans poured over the top. The flavors really do complement each other, and the combination of hot and cold is great!
baked beans on toast topped with cottage cheese. wonderful...but how is that weird?? Doesn't everybody like that??

Sashimi
I have served Sashimi style squid and tuna on equally thin slices of strawberry's and kiwi fruit - some call them Chinese gooseberries
you have to let them sit for an hour before serving - NO LONGER
the acids from the fruit pickle the fish,
My Japanese friend has her family back home addicted to this exotic treat.
NB: slice the squid skin side up and from head to tail each slice should end up large enough to stretch over a kiwi fruit slice halved. The secret with all Sashimi is in how thin you can slice or shave ....
Just as an after thought
I dont think of these as weird as they are on the menu.
but a customer just reminded me how strange they are to some.
Prawns on a skewer covered with melted brie and garlic, wrapped in prosciutto double crumbed and deep fried.
Figs quartered then wrapped in prosciutto. poached in a shallow sugar syrup with butter on top of the syrup.
Vanilla Ice cream with sweet chilli sauce
Wombat burgers - although these are just pork hamburgers with wild herbs.

I love yellow mustard on fries. I hate ketchup.
I also was really grossed out when someone suggested a peanut butter & bacon sandwich....as it turns out, those are pretty good.
My favorite kind of pizza has lamb, feta cheese, black & green olives on it.
And vanilla ice cream with either pretzles or plain potato chips crumbled on top.

One of my step-sons likes to put ketchup on his mac-n-cheese.
I like to add canned tuna to mac-n-cheese.

this really isn't all that weird, maybe to oenophiles it is, but i love a good, chilled white zin, white merlot, blush, or rose' with most italian american tomato sauced and melted parm dishes.
there's something about the sweetness of the wine that not only cuts the acidity, but works really well to enhance the flavor of the tomatoes, and especially the melted mozarella or parmesan.
i've had it so many time now that if i have a glass of white zin (et al.), i can almost smell/taste chicken parm, or veal and peppers in sauce.

I've tried this, and it's delicious. I served it for dessert once, topped with fresh whipped cream. I've also lightly sauteed the strawberries (about a punnet's worth) in a couple of tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and sugar. That was also very nice.
My eldest daughter wants me to make a pizza with bacon, avocado and feta cheese. Doesn't sound that appetizing to me, but she had it recently and swears it will be "divine". I'm making this tonight (with some soup & salad from last night as an emergency back-up). Let you know! -Sandyj

Kiwi-pesto pizza. I was suspicious at first but my roommate made me try it, and it's delicious, and since then I've been converting more and more people to the kiwi-pesto cause. You just have to try it.
He made his on a large pita bread; just spread the pesto on, cover in kiwi slices, and cover with a cheese that won't get too gooey. I've made it with bleu, camembert, goat cheese, good quality swiss cheese, parmesan...
You don't want to try this with Classico's pesto Get a good one.
