Salsa with cream cheese. Looks like vomit, which is actually a plus because you don't have to share!
My grandma used to make this. We call it pink slime.
It's delicious.
I'm gonna go with game genres, specifically roguelikes and rhythm-based games. They sound terrible together and yet, Crypt of the Necrodancer (and also Cadence of Hyrule) is the shit.
Turn based + time pressure is just such an insane combination. Makes the simplest games insanely harder, escalates the potential for blunders and at the same time enables flow. Bullet chess is similar in that regard.
I always hated the idea to put beans and bananas together. It is a fairly common habit in my country, tho, but it's a no-no for me in general.
But once I tried a Nigerian dish that had beans, bananas, shrimps and pepper and I absolutely fucking loved it. Seriously, the flavor was from another world.

Rice and milk. (Sometimes called rice pudding)
Grate a bit of nutmeg in for extra points.
And making it with 6 cups of milk to half a cup of rice and simmering until the liquid is very reduced produces a very intense deliciousness.
It's really nice with vanilla as well

Grilled Cheese and Worcestershire sauce.
"Things that sound like an awful combination"
I don't feel that this one fits the bill. Why would those two flavours be awful together? Beef + cheese = good
It was just strange to me when someone told me about it, and when I tell other people they think it's strange too.

Salt and anything sweet. Salt is a flavor enhancer and can make sweet flavors pop even more.
Also coffee. It doesn't make bad coffee good coffee, but it makes it less bad. Doesn't help Starbucks coffee however, nothing can.
Mmm, salmiak... when you get that perfect hit of sweet and salty at once! ๐
Peanut butter, mayo, dill pickle sandwich. Might not be too rare, I've met a few other people who eat variations of this but damn is it good.
You gotta watch out though cuz all that mayo will sneak up on you.
Peanut butter on a meat sandwich. Any sandwich. I like roast beef peanut butter combo.

Strawberries and black pepper.
Slice the strawberries and dip them in a bit of black pepper.
Hamburgers with peanut butter and jalapeno.
Toast with peanut butter and sriracha. It's almost like a satay flavour, really good drunk snack!
Similarly, peanut butter & sambal on toast. It's basically savoury & spicy peanut sauce. Absolutely delightful.

Alcohol and power tools.
I ate a burger with doughnuts instead of buns, was surprisingly good
A shower and an orange. You can just devour that orange like a caveman without worrying about the mess. Shower beer is good too, just because it is nice to have a cold beverage under a hot shower.
I once added a bottle of cherry Pepsi to my crock pot when making pulled pork and it was damn good.
The liquids used for carnitas are generally: milk, Mexican coke, orange juice and water. I could see the cherry coke being bomb

coca-cola + hefeweizen = colaweizen
Sounds vile, is really tasty.
A pickle back! Pickle juice chaser with a shot of Jameson. i thought a pickle back was the most disgusting sounding thing until i tried it. it's a fantastic chaser for a shot of whiskey.
I ordered one once and the waiter didn't know what I was talking about so I just got a beer. He comes back later with a big smile on his face holding a glass with some liquid in it saying he brought me a pickleback. It was premixed. I shot it, it was a lot of liquid, and only once it was in my mouth did I realize they had used bread and butter pickle juice.

Orange slices and salt. ๐ง๐
That actually makes sense if you like Phad Thai
Eating a fondue in the tub
Peanut butter and jelly sandwich with cheetos OR cheddar ruffles.
I've only ever tried it once, and no drugs were involved but a Irish o garlic bratwurst, and a Hershey chocolate bar. Sooo good.v
Strawberry jelly on tortilla chips! The contrast of salty and sweet create a wonderful blend of flavors in your mouth.
Black coffee and diet coke, I used to get it a lot like that hit or miss from McDonald's drive thru before they started selling it in a can.
It was pretty good! I like sweetened coffee but I also am a carbonation fiend so it really scratched both itches at the same time
Yea, this is surprising nice!
Have you tried coffee with light beer? (Lagers/pils, not the usual stouts)
On the fence for these ๐
