If you’ve ever had a dish combination that you adore but that other people find intriguing. Regardless of your preference for sweet and spicy creamy and salty or sweet and salty we’ve compiled a list of the most unusual and popular food pairings.

Salt and Apple

Despite the fact that salt has the well-established ability to bring out the flavors of sweetness, sourness and umami, is the pairing of salt and apples really that strange? Therefore apples simply taste more appley when salted!

Fries and Milkshake

Going to any burger joint as a child probably made you believe you came up with this combination only to find out that almost every other child does the same thing. Furthermore the concept of the combination of sweet creamy and salty flavors is not all that dissimilar from that of loaded fries or poutine.

Chocolate and Potato Chips

This strange food combination is well-liked. Over the years they have offered chocolate covered potato chips and chocolate clusters, two distinct varieties of chocolate potato chips. We strongly recommend trying it – it’s the perfect combination of sweet salty and crunchy flavors!

Strawberries and Cheese Sauce

Upon seeing this combination of foods. It doesn’t sound bad to pair warm cheese with cool sweet strawberries; it would make a very attractive and alluring charcuterie board!

Cucumber and Honey

Is there anything that doesn’t taste better when you add natural sugar? If you want to be fancy you can garnish your cucumber snack with a special honey such as avocado honey.

Sugar and Tomato

Using this method to prevent tomatoes from being bitter. Essentially ketchup is tomato sugar paste. Sugar only serves to bring out the sweetness that is already there in tomatoes.

Avocado and Chocolate

The Mayans frequently combined avocado and chocolate which is generally considered to be a savory fruit. So before you think this is an odd combination of foods, remember the past! Fortunately this combination is becoming more popular as people realize how great creamy avocado is for creating delectable chocolate mousse!

Creamed Corn and Mashed Potatoes

A common dinner time staple is mashed potatoes and creamed corn. In addition to adding some texture and sweetness the creamy corn helps keep the mashed potatoes from becoming too gloopy.

Applepie and Cheese

It’s common to pair cheese with apples but I can assure you that apple pie and cheese also tastes great! If you don’t want to make an entire pie to sample it you can make our Savory Apple Tart with feta and ricotta cheese for a quick taste.

Avocado and Sugar

sprinkling an avocado with raw sugar. It only makes sense since I adore chocolate desserts. I suggest starting with it in our Easy Avocado Ice Cream if you don’t want to try avocado and sugar together.

Watermelon and Vinegar

With good reason watermelon and vinegar are a common odd food pairing: the watermelon’s sweetness complements the vinegar’s tang. It is a typical dressing for salads made with watermelon such as my Grilled Watermelon Mint Salad.

Cream Cheese and Olives

Common appetizers that use it include ham with a pickle rolled up in the center and cream cheese spread on it. It is then served as a Midwestern Sushi hor d’oeuvre after being cut into slices perpendicular to the pickle.

Grilled Cheese and Ketchup

It appears that ketchup and cheese are a common odd food pairing. Additionally there isn’t much of a difference between grilled cheese with tomato soup and cheese on tomato soup when you break it down.

Peanut Butter and Mayonnaise

This strange food combination consists of combining peanut butter and mayonnaise and dipping bananas into it. Peanut butter goes well with almost anything and is likely to taste good.

Unusual food pairings frequently represent the diverse and whimsical ways in which people experience flavor. Peanut butter and mayonnaise and salty apples are two examples of pairings that defy accepted taste standards while frequently producing unexpectedly delicious outcomes. A memorable culinary experience is produced by the contrasts of sweet and salty creamy and crunchy. Even though they might seem strange at first many of these duos have growing popularity or cultural roots that support their allure. These odd combinations whether they are avocado in desserts or fries in milkshakes demonstrate that experimenting with flavors can be enjoyable and delectable. Because your next favorite might be on this list don’t discount it until you’ve tried it!
