In this thread we will discuss any weird foods you have cooked that turned out to be quite tasty despite seeming disgusting in theory.

For me I have been trying a lot of combinations with condoments on burgers. Some of my recent creations are: BBQ sauce and salsa, BBQ sauce and taco sauce, and Tartar Sauce and cheese.

I also put tartar sauce on some baked chicken my wife made and it turned out to be pretty good. BBQ sauce with mac and cheese is also a favorite of mine (in case you can't tell, I like to experiment with condoments).
 
When I lived in Germany I loooooved eating quark (cottage) cheese sandwiches with ketchup on top. Nothing else except a bit of butter.

I don't even know that what I'm talking about is called quark cheese. In Poland we call it White Cheese. I've done some googling and it's tough to find.. so.. I don't think that this type of cheese is popular or common in north america. Here's a pic:

edit: can someone tell me what this cheese is called in English?.. especially American or Canadian English? I thought it was quark, but.. quark cheese is often creamy. This stuff isn't.

In the UK it is called cottage cheese.

Mainly eaten by slimmers;)

Yeah, that's what I thought it was for the longest time here too, until I saw what they mean by cottage cheese here, which is chunky/britly stuff that's not solid. What's a slimmer?? I demand to know
 
I refuse to confirm this, but my sort-of-friend's girlfriend swears by Oreos and ranch dressing. I will confirm that jalepenos and A1 Sauce work very well together as burger toppings.

Someone who may not like eating a large amount of pork.;)


Has anyone tried a toast sandwich:goodjob:
 
Pizza and ranch dressing.
 
One of my childhood favourites: Ketchup and mayonnaise.

I remember proudly calling my invention "matchup" and introducing it to the world. Imagine my crushed ego when I discovered that others had discovered this glorious recipe.

More recently, I tried cheese, bread, and chili. It's pretty darn good too!

Ice cream on bread.

It's delicious.

Since when was this a weird combination?? More people should eat ice-cream on bread!
 
Pizza and ranch dressing.

I used to do that.. I got addicted to those garlic dipping sauce things you got from pizza pizza, but hated pizza pizza.. So I started using ranch dressing for this purpose instead
 
how is banana and chocolate controversial? I've never heard of bread and ice cream, so I'll try that.

anyways, my combo: sriracha on [insert anything]. Also, it's not disgusting but not many people do jelly and cheese combos on stuff (jelly cheese crackers, jelly cheese sandwiches, etc) despite it being good. At least I didnt until my roommate talked about it.
