I just discovered this the other day and it is really good.
Fresh cantaloupe with fresh lime and chili powder.
You cut both up, sprinkle a little chili powder and squirt of lime on the melon, done.
It was a really good melon to start, I'm sure that helped. I tried cheyenne pepper also and that was good but hot.
 
Tomato Juice in Pasta = <3

When I was a kid I used to eat spaghetti just with ketchup. So not so weird.

Tomato-based condiments/food are the work of Satan.
 
Not sure if this is weird but I really like ranch dressing on hot dogs and burgers.


And I never thought this was weird, but every time I tell someone that I eat my lunchmeat sandwiches with ketchup on them, they're like "WTF?"

Also, a little bit of ketchup is good with macaroni and cheese.

When you say chili powder, which do you mean? Do you mean paprika, Kashmir chili or pure red chilli powder?
 
I used "chili powder". In the states it is use to make "chili", which is like a spicy stew with beans and meat. It is just ground red peppers, usually slightly spice. I wouldn't use paprika and I am not sure what Kashmir chili is, so I would say try the pure red chili powder.
 
Cheese and jam sandwich. In Year 8 a friend of mine told me about it and I thought it was awful, until I tried it one day and it's surprisingly nice.

Also, hash brown and baked bean sandwich. I used to get it all the time from the sandwich shop but the beans make it very messy to eat.
 
It's all about the marmite and ham sandwiches. Or in fact marmite and almost anything savoury is good.
 
I remember when I was little, I went to a cousin's BBQ party, mixed the french and thousand island dressing out of curiousity and everyone loved it. Don't know if I'll still like it today - I'm way too much in love with vinaigrettes now.

Really? I've never thought of attempting to eat something except breads with the combination of jam since having seen the Poles having rice with putting a lump of jam on it innocently. :sly:
 
I had french fries with gravy (beef or pork, can't remember) at a place in upstate NY, they were awesome.

Hot dogs and buffalo wing sauce is pretty good.

I know I've had more weird combos, but that's all I can think of right now.
 
Glace cherries wrapped in streaky bacon and then bbq or oven cook. My brothers South African wife introduced me to them, seriously good.
 
Potato crisps and chocolate.

Royce actually sells that. And it's expensive. It's considered a delicacy in Japan.

RE: Gravy and fries... used to do that in Uni, till we learned how wonderfully versatile Frosty soft-serves were.

Next time you're eating spicy Korean "Ramyun" and there's no egg handy, try a dab of mayonnaise. Same thing. Even better, the sweetness of the mayo balances out the heat.

One of the coolest ice cream flavors I've tried so far is Maple Bacon Pancake. Have yet to try making it at home, though. Seems simple enough, ice cream, maple syrup and bacon bits. But the proportions are important.
 
They don't serve the dish here. Closest we get is a plate of fries served nacho style, with a ton of junk on top of it.

Or perhaps smothered in artificial cheese.
 
I bought a jar of jalapeno and blueberry jelly when I was in Texas. It wasn't extremely spicy or very hot, but it had a noticeable kick to its sweetness, which was a nice complement to toast or sourdough bread.

My high school cafeteria served poutines. It's a Canadian thing and has spread to the US.
 
See, when we get fish and chips, all that junk goes on the potatoes, anyway... :lol:
