“What Is Your Favorite Meal Or Snack That No One Understands?”: 30 People Share Their Beloved But Weird Food Combos
Interview
Cooking is an art. To truly understand what flavors best complement one another takes lots of experimentation. A chef must be brave enough to try new things and take risks. Even if a combination turns out to be repulsive, at least the artist learned something. Plus, you know what they say: one chef’s trash is another man’s favorite questionable food combination. (Or something like that...)
Recently, Reddit users have been sharing their favorite meals and snacks that other people just don’t understand, and we’ll warn you, some of them might cause you to raise your eyebrows. So below, we’ve gathered some of the most intriguing culinary concoctions that people absolutely swear by, as well as an interview with the Reddit user who sparked this conversation in the first place. As controversial as these may sound, we think that if you keep an open mind, you might even find a meal or snack that’ll make it into your regular diet as well.
Be sure to upvote the suggestions you find most shocking or that you would actually be willing to try, and feel free to share your own beloved yet misunderstood food combos in the comments. Then, if you’re interested in expanding your palette even further, you can find Bored Panda’s last article featuring questionable snacks and meals right here.

Once in a blue moon I'll microwave a frozen French bread pizza instead of baking it--it's objectively much worse this way but it tastes just like the bad microwaved rectangular pizza at the pool when I was growing up, which hits me right in the nostalgia. All it's missing is bits of paper plate stuck to the bottom.
Depending on whether you’re a picky or adventurous eater, this list might affect you in a variety of ways. If you’re open minded when it comes to food, many of these might sound delicious, or even completely normal. As a person who will try anything (as long as it’s vegan), I have to admit that very few of these combinations sounded strange to me. In fact, for people that don’t have any dietary restrictions or preferences, I would say that many of these pairings sound perfectly delicious!
But food is sometimes a sensitive topic. We get set in our ways (and sometimes assign moral value to things, like saying that pineapple on pizza is wrong) and often forget that there are infinite combinations out there that might actually blow our minds. So to learn more about how this conversation started in the first place, we reached out to the Reddit user who asked others to share their favorite meals and snacks that no one understands. The author of this question, who wishes to remain anonymous, told Bored Panda, “I asked the question because I have a favorite weird favorite myself, and I was curious what others would say!"

“My favorite weird food is a fresh baked garlic bagel from a real bagel place,” the author who sparked this conversation shared. “The kind with crunchy garlic bits covering the outside. Toasted with butter, salt and honey!” Honestly, that sounds delicious.
We were also curious what she thought of the replies her post received. “Nothing really sounds gross to me, but I didn't try anything I saw in the comments.” And when it comes to whether or not there are any combinations that should be considered truly bizarre, she’s open minded. “It's just a matter of preference!”

I have soft boiled eggs on toast for breakfast nearly every day. So many people look at me weirdly when I tell them. Its like only poached , scrambled or fried exist. Some will be like “ ooh do you dip bits of toast in it?” And I’m like “nah, I peel it and put it in my toast (sliced in half, yolk runny, white cooked). Delish and healthy.
No one else does it and everyone gives me strange looks.

We also asked the author if there were any combos she would never dare to try. “I would try anything vegan or vegetarian,” she told Bored Panda. “But I'm really picky about meat and other animal products.” That’s understandable. I feel some sense of comfort knowing that my chances of being food poisoned are significantly decreased by not eating animal products. But more power to those of you who have absolutely no fears when it comes to food! Bon appétit!

Cheese and onion? Can you imagine if someone made a potato chip flavour of that? Madness!
Some of the responses to this post were repeated many times, meaning that those combinations aren’t actually that bizarre. Apparently, lots of people love pickles and peanut butter! And while that is one pairing I have yet to try myself, I can already say that I know I would like it. I will be making a PB&P sandwich very soon. (Maybe even add some sriracha on it!) But it should not be shocking that some of these combinations work because a lot of cooking is just pairing various flavor profiles. For example, something salty, something sweet, something acidic and something creamy or fatty all in one dish is often a hit. There are infinite opportunities for what can be used for each of those components.

Alas but I can’t eat pepper due to a serious dry mouth syndrome where all foods like it are like fire on the tongue.
What is considered a “weird food combination” is also incredibly subjective. There are so many different cultures around the world eating a variety of different diets, so what is perfectly normal to one person might sound repulsive to someone on the other side of the world. That doesn’t mean there is anything wrong with either person’s palette, though. They just have different preferences. One classic example is how loved the peanut butter and jelly sandwich is to Americans. I have met many Europeans who say the combination sounds disgusting. And although they have heard of it and know it’s a staple for American kids to pack for lunch, I’ve met many people who wince at the thought of trying it. Sort of how I feel about eating baked beans on toast, a favorite of many Brits. I love an English breakfast, but I never ever touch the beans.

One of the most controversial food combinations of all time is pineapple on pizza. Most people have an opinion on this topic. And while I never felt passionately one way or the other, (I’ve enjoyed the occasional pizza with pineapples but it’s certainly not my go-to), I finally understood how people could be so shocked by the idea when I moved to Sweden and saw people putting banana on pizza. That was a new one for me. But the famous Hawaiian pizza came onto the scene in the 1960s, when an Ontario-based pizza joint owned by Sam Panopoulos started experimenting with creative toppings. And while the pizza flavor still sparks debate around the world, it’s simultaneously a cult classic.

Jennik 3 years ago
Kiwi here: an occasional treat in my primary school days was a Marmite sandwich with a mini packet of crisps (back when they cost 5c) to put into the sandwich just before you ate it. If the crisps were put in by your mum when she was making the sandwich in the morning they could be soggy by lunchtime, hence the DIY hack.
Pickles and peanut butter is often regarded as strange craving pregnant women have, but apparently the combination came about nearly a century ago. During the Great Depression, resources were incredibly sparse, and people started to get creative with their rations to find cheap, filling meals. Thus, the peanut butter and pickle sandwich was born. But the combo makes perfect sense, as peanut butter can certainly be used excellently in savory meals. Ever had a pad thai with chopped peanuts on top, summer rolls dipped in a peanut sauce or a thai peanut curry? I would highly recommend all three!

I don’t waste my time with half a sleeve of saltine crackers. I want the whole sleeve crushed with milk! Totally love it. Have been eating that as a snack r occasionally a cheat meal

Graham crackers with cream cheese frosting and strawberry jam. Best quick cheesecake and easy to let the kids make their own. :)

That “desk snack” is going to give you bad breath. Probably kept the unwanted coworkers away!

Mom made a lot of cakes and would make extra frosting for graham crackers.

my dad ate crackers and milk quite frequently when I was a kid. I did too! Brings back fond memories!

Slice of white bread, shmear of sour cream, sprinkle of salt and pepper. Fold. Chomp. Been making that snack since I was a teen and I crave it once in a while.

Buttered rice and ketchup. Haven’t had it in years. Started out as a struggle meal but it’s my secret pleasure.

My sister used to like putting ketchup on her rice when we were kids.

Two things: Parmesan bagel (Costco) toasted up and then cream cheese with honey. Wife thinks it’s crazy, I love it. My grandma used to make the second, and most people think it’s crazy. A summer sausage sandwich. Use whatever bread. Nice sharp cheddar. Lettuce, onion, whatever veggies you want. Top with your favorite jelly and spicy brown mustard.

Pickled eggs, sausage , and sardines. Together

This makes me think of the SpongeBob episode where he eats the radioactive chili. I think that this hellish dish would have a similar effect.

I can't eat sardines, too salty and bitter for me. I try it every several years, still a nope.

I like using popcorn and cereal as croutons (Obviously not something like Froot Loops. That would be too crazy... I use something plain like Chex or Crispix... Ok, maybe Cap'n Crunch too..)

My son and I crush up flaming hot Cheetos for croutons. Have to get creative when you're celiac

When I was a kid I used to love sprinkling powdered Tang on my toast instead of using cinnamon sugar lol It tastes like an orange creamsicle on buttered toast!

No idea what this concoction is called, but I’ll cook up a bunch of egg whites, ground turkey, oven-roasted broccoli, diced tomatoes, some taco sauce and taco seasoning all in a pan, and then serve it over brown rice? Delicious! No one else in my house likes it or gets it, but I do.

I miss proper ruffle chips. Haven't been able to get them since last century.

Anytime we have a fire my girlfriend fills marshmallows with yellow mustard and then burns the s**t out of them. Another favorite of hers is a chunk of banana on a slice of extra sharp cheddar with a bread and butter pickle chip. No she's not pregnant and yes something is wrong with her.

Not a peanut chip, a pickle chip. Bread and butter pickles are sweet pickles sliced crosswise (so not lengthwise into spears).

If she's not currently pregnant, imagine the horrors she would crave if she were.

I used to eat chicken nuggets dipped in vanilla milkshakes. I loved it. Yet I hate fries dipped in milkshakes with a fiery passion. I can't eat any one of any of these anymore but I still like the taste. Along with orange juice and toothpaste. Barbeque or A1 steak sauce with mustard on a hamburger (no cheese. I hate cheese. Only bun, condiments, and meat patty) was my favorite.

I do dip my chicken nuggets and fries in my milkshake. The milkshake has to be chocolate though.

Cheez-its dipped in cinnamon applesauce was a favorite snack when I was in junior high school. I still have it occasionally.

A lot of these most likely come from when you under 18 and had a open minded member of your family or a friend introduce you to it. Memory is a powerful thing, enjoy what you enjoy.

So much of what we eat is about tradition and habit, not taste. So we resist food combinations outside what we're used to.

Wtf? Someone downvoting because you don't like our cravings? Get a grip. I upvoted all of you to counteract it. Smh

my go to sandwich is toast, obazda (spread made of camenbert, onion, beer and paprika powder - traditional german spread mostly used for pretzels during Oktoberfest) with the fattiest pepperoni I can find, tomatos, sweet mustard and burger sauce (kinda like the big mac one)
