However, sometimes weird food combinations work. I have a friend in high school who tried Oreos (Oreoes? Oreo's? Fine ... Oreo cookies.) and squirt cheese on a dare and loved it. (I had to take her word for it because I never had the guts to try it on my own.)
However, there is one food combo I grew up with that makes perfect sense to me but causes my wife to cringe.
It's a grilled cheese sandwich:
With hot chocolate:
I dare you to try it. Tomato soup is fine, but this is the way I really love to eat grilled cheese sandwiches.
So, there you have it, Paula Abdul. Opposites really do attract.

I love french fries and chocolate shakes. I have never had Oreos and squirt cheese, or girlled cheese and hot chocolate. They sound absurd!
I have had lays chips dipped in mustard, not all that weird, but certainly uncommon.
I LOVE fries dipped in vanilla soft serve from McD's. I also love beef jerky with honey roasted peanuts and Hoffmann cheese. Kinda a weird combo but man, I crave it on a snow day. Maybe it is still memories from last year's ice storm when we didn't have power and were eating out of food storage for a week. In any case, it is GOOD.
OH! And now that I have had time to think about it, I love putting ketchup and mayonaise on my tacos or burritos and I dip Salsa Verde chips in potatoe salad (which I happen to be eating right now). YUM!
i can totally see the grilled cheese and hot chocolate thing--- i love to dip toast in hot chocolate. i'll have to add a little cheese next time.
Frostie and french fries is the best
eating weird food rules.
i like to use HUGE pepperoncinis as scoops in minestrone soup. i'm also a huge fan of dipping my grilled cheese in buffalo sauce, but that's probably not that weird.
