Would using Nike brand socks for my seed be a cool flex?
Hello goons. I'm pretty sure everyone here has developed a palate that desires something more complex than instant mac and cheese. However there are plebs out there that would burn us at the stake for the things we do to food (think about the unreasonable amount of hate pineapple on pizza gets). This thread is for us to share our forbidden knowledge and exchange food combinations/recipes that only the bold seem to appreciate.

My favorites:

Cashews on Pizza - Tried this when I got someone else's pizza and food poisoning by mistake. The texture was weirdly good like burned bacon bits.
Mustard on Chili Dogs - I don't know why people think its weird, the contrast makes the chili go down even easier!
Sliced uncooked bananas in stir fry or spaghetti or with a plate of beans - Shut up it works.
Bread Sandwich - Poverty tip from a friend: Fry up a piece of bread in oil and season heavily with spices meant for chicken. Slap it between two slices of normal bread with mayo. Sad but cheap.
Red Radishes as a Potato substitute in soup - Cook the radish long enough and its like eating red potatoes without the starch. Its good for you and yummy so shut up.
Spaghetti Sandwich - My favorite is the jumbo
Spaghetti Taco - honestly crosses the line, but people I know swear by it
Redneck red eye - Put a spoonful of instant coffee powder into your mug of fresh hot brewed coffee. Your heart will thank you.
Trailer trash nigiri - Take your leftover tuna salad and try to wrap it into a ball of rice. Garnish with sesame seeds and bitter resentment at the baka gaijin that raised you.
PB & J Oatmeal - My SO hates that I make this, but its easier than reaching for the sugar in the cabinet. If you like your sandwiches runny give it a go.
Oranges and Salt - A hispanic and filipino delicacy that has cursed the human race for centuries. Will do if you are out of tajin.
Slice of lunch ham in a corn tortilla - out of bread both literally and figuratively? #justdoit
Coffee Chili - My dad once put coffee grinds in his chili thinking it was a different seasoning. It was a pleasant and unexpected surprise.
Hot Dog Rice - Not forbidden, but if you start adding mustard to your hotdogs and rice you're really pushing the envelope there bud. For fans of Ketchup and not spending money.
Cup of Noodles with Mayo - I personally will throw hands if you serve me this, but some people are masochists and we don't kink shame in this thread
Cereal and Orange Juice - Out of milk, but unwilling to admit how poor you are and settle for tap water? Try this, but don't use sunny D. It's too acidic.
Ketchup and Mustard Pringle Nachos - Microwave pringles with your choice of condiments for about 45 seconds until the mustard starts to brown. Serves 1 disappointed adult on fathers day

Basically all of such combinations are considered totally normal in some region and not even worth mentioning to people there. It took me over 10 years to try a crazy combination I sometimes heard off because I couldn't imagine it being anything but a prank meme. It was peanut butter and jelly.

My list of combos that surprise people:
Smoked salmon on pizza - picked it up in Rome and now it is my favourite-
egg on pizza - crack an egg on your pizza before putting it into the oven.
salt on watermelon slices- japanese staple, amazing once the days reach over 40°C
fried bacon and sesame - sprinkle on the sesame when it is almost done frying.


e:vvvvv I almost forgot, because I don't like it, In my region there is a fashion for putting salad on pizza. Just make a normal pizza and a normal small appetizer salad and dump the salad on the pizza before serving.

Cheap supermarket potato salad on cheap supermarket frozen pizza is real good (you don't cook the potato salad obvs). Something about that nice combo of the cool potato salad and the warm cheese. This is a Life Hack I discovered when I was real broke about 20 years ago and Tesco Value poo poo was all I could afford.

Chocolate + Starfruit = dead

Durian + soda = dead

Buffalo + Mutton = dead

Milk + Mushrooms = dead

Milk + Fish = vitiligo (Michael Jackson was given this combination as a child)

Parrot + Gourd = dead

Cassava + Peacock = dead

There are many forbidden combinations out there.

Peanut butter and vegemite. It doesn't taste like you'd expect. Instead of getting either flavour distinctly, they combine into something new and wonderful.

This is how they come by default in upstate SC. Chili + mustard + onions.

Sorry, we can probably do this for any food combo like was said earlier:

when I was a study abroad student in Japan and didn't know what the gently caress I was doing with regard to cooking, I made this thing that was cooked white rice, doused with this kimchi base:

then topped with raw white onions, cooked sausage, and yellow mustard. It was a loving nightmare and also delicious

When I was first told some people put cinnamon on their pineapple pizza I thought that HAD to be a joke. It's actually not bad and apparently considered perfectly normal somewhere. Possibly even by you!

I went through a phase as a little kid where I was crazy for PB & mayo sandwiches. The thought doesn't appeal to me one bit now so I guess it passed :shrug:

Strawberries are great with savoury food. Try a ham, cheese and strawberry sandwich.

I know this is just a different type of pickle but I've recently realized that peanut butter and kimchi is a decent pairing as well.

This is two slices of redneck garlic bread (you know, wonder bread, American cheese product, and garlic powder) mushed together. There's nothing bad about that statement.

Shut up, you old bat.
This is probably only forbidden for the health concerns but if I have extra bacon from weekend breakfasts I’ll put it on a PB&J and it “slaps” as my niece says.

E: Ooh yeah my wife made a salad with black beans and beets in it over the summer and it looked awful. I didn’t try it cause I can’t do beets but that seemed like it was probably something that should be forbidden.

When I get Chinese takeout I like to put the hot mustard packets on my egg roll. Regardless of egg roll innards, it pairs amazingly with the greasy crispy egg roll exterior. I've tried the hot mustard on basically everything from Chinese takeout and none of them are as good as putting it on the egg roll.

Close second is if your place has a pu pu platter; it can be pretty good on the shrimp toast. The shrimp donut thing is better with duck sauce tho

I don't know anyone who ever uses the mustard packets for anything, so I have no base of reasonable use. Do people use them elsewhere for other Chinese takeout dishes???

When I was at university I knew a guy who used to cook pasta in the little plastic kettles we got in our dorm rooms.

He would then offer you tea, made with his pasta kettle.

Using ketchup on a salad when you run out of regular salad dressing.

I once saw a Japanese tourist at a bar where I worked in Chicago order a small Caesar salad. I placed a condiment caddy in front of him because I figured he might want pepper, and the food runner would be able to easily see who had ordered food. When the salad came out, he put salt and pepper on it. Okay. He then put a large amount of regular yellow mustard on it in a spiral pattern. I was fairly grossed out but I figured, well I suppose a dijon mustard or something would be a Thing? And this isn't too far off?

He then did a spiral of ketchup.

He ate the whole thing without complaining. To this day it haunts me, wondering whether he was a freak who enjoyed it, or whether perhaps he was so out of his element that he assumed all the condiments presented to him were considered appropriate in America for what he ordered, and was too polite to show his disgust.
