Popcorn and pickles. Worked with a pregnant lady who had a craving for these together and, well, she wasn’t wrong.
Macaroni and cheese and pretty much anything.
Tuna Mac: Tuna?
Tuna and any grilled vegetables?
Poverty Mac: Pork and beans?
Pork and beans AND chopped up hotdogs?
Spaghetti Mac: Leftover spaghetti sauce?
Taco Mac: Leftover taco meat?
Get the velveeta Mac and cheese for extra luxury.
Greatest comfort food recipe ever:
Mac, Cheese, Peas, and bacon.
The recipes online are all nonsense. They either mix the bacon in or put it under the mac and cheese!
White cheddar cheese sauce with macaroni. That goes into the casserole dish.
A layer of peas on top of the mac & cheese.
2 pounds of bacon cooked crispy and crumbled on top of the peas. From the top you shouldn't see anything but bacon.
Put it in the oven and cook it till it starts bubbling.
Yaaaass! I haven't done this in forever, but it is actually really good! Looks like I know what I'm adding to the grocery list next week.
You have forgotten the greatest: chili Mac.
It sounds like a classic, the name had that ring to it, but what do add to the Mac? Left over chili? What kind of chili?
Mac and cheese with chopped hotdogs was a staple of my childhood. Used to drown it in ketchup to make people squirm.
Hotdogs in mac and cheese is awesome! I cut the hotdog lengthwise in quarters and then into tiny bits, then cook it up in a pan for a few minutes to get the texture before adding it to the mac and cheese. Chopped bacon is also fantastic in mac and cheese.
Adding ketchup sounds awful though.
Both of these are established dishes, so I don't know if I could call them unexpected, but:

Jalapeno chocolate fudge cake, tried on a whim at a restaurant. Thought it might be a disaster, but hot stuff and sweet (and fatty) stuff works surprisingly well together. I suppose that it's kind of closer to how the Mesoamericans used to originally eat cocoa, which could be with chilis:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aztec_cuisine#Cacao
Chocolate could be prepared in a huge variety of ways and most of them involved mixing hot or tepid water with toasted and ground cacao beans, maize and any number of flavorers such as chili, honey, vanilla and a wide variety of spices.[31]
The ingredients were mixed and beaten with a beating stick or aerated by pouring the chocolate from one vessel to another. If the cacao was of high quality, this produced a rich head of foam. The head could be set aside, the drink further aerated to produce another head, which was also set aside and then placed on top of the drink along with the rest of the foam before serving.

Five Guys does a milkshake with bacon sprinkles that I thought sounded like it could be pretty gross, but crunchy salty apparently works with sweet fatty as well. Goes somewhat downhill as the bacon looses its crispness, though. Be interesting if there's some sort of waterproof coating that one could put on it. ("chocolate-coated bacon bits?")
Chocolate and chipotle pepper go together very well too.
I don't think that's that weird. Ginger + sour kicks ass. Not much different from a Moscow mule really.
As for me somebody turned me onto salting my watermelon slices. Pretty damn good
Peanut butter and sweet onion
I eat pb&o sandwiches then the local sweet onions are in season.
Peanut butter and pickles
Came here for this one, I was so skeptical at first but damn it's good
Whiskey and black licorice.
Right after too-salty popcorn, this is one of my go-tos when watching a movie--especially with a peaty scotch.
PB & J, I mean yeah, tried and true, but it's odd that peanuts and berries go well together when both are squished 😅
Try sunflower seed butter and honey!
Stoner cheesecakes: a thin wheat cracker, with a slice of white cheddar, a drop of honey, and a chocolate chip. Top it off with some Frank's Red Hot.
You lost me at the end
Vanilla ice cream with good quality evoo and kosher salt.
I had a hankering for vanilla ice cream and wasabi
I enjoyed that for a while and would like to find a dairy free substitute to try again
Isn't that basically Canada dry?
Might not be that weird, but brie and pepperoni go together like they were made for each other.
Brie, bacon, redcurrant jelly on a crusty baguette. Heaven.
Steak and pound cake. I went to a friend's house and showed up after they had already eaten dinner and were about to eat dessert. So I grabbed a leftover steak and some pound cake and ended up eating them together.
It's somewhat similar to the burger on a donut. It's actually really good! I made a bacon cheeseburger, put it in a maple donut and almost died. Lol No ketchup or anything like that though.
PB & mustard sandwich
it delicious
Bacon and watermelon
Peanut butter and pork chops. It's poor man's satay.
I really like savory oatmeal, and I mostly do it with fish and fennel. Great meal any time of day.
