We all have those moments. Whether you are pregnant, working out hard, or doing other things that might give you munchies, you've probably had a craving for something that people would probably look at you funny for. You could also just be someone who likes weird food, like a literal latte inside an avocado or a shake made out of nacho cheese Doritos, Monster Energy, and Mountain Dew. Well, if you want to know what other people crave or are looking for something new to try, look no further for we have collected a bunch of different examples for you. Bon appetite!
Oreos And Salsa
The title says it all. These are two things we never want to see together again, but if we go to any house parties, you can bet they'll be right next to one another. In any normal circumstance, we would object and call this person crazy, but as the poster pointed out this was given to someone who was pregnant and having some pretty wild cravings, so we give them a pass.
Still, we can't imagine this being any better than it looks. Even if it is what she was craving, we have some doubt that she actually enjoyed it.
Raw Onions And Ground Beef On Toast
Someone clearly has some iron deficiency going on. The poster of this piece said it's a sandwich their dad likes to eat and describes it as "raw ground beef with raw onions and white pepper on hard bread". We're not doctors or anything, but that can't be safe to eat. Yes, we understand that the concept is the same as beef tartar, but it's just not the same thing at all.
There's a reason that we're meant to cook beef before eating it and we feel like this is a recipe for disaster. At least at restaurants, it feels safe to eat.
Pickle Snowcones
We don't and never will understand the obsession with pickle juice. There are people who swear by it and are ready to drink it straight or use it to wash down their food, but we just don't get it. But apparently, there's a big enough following that some store out there went ahead and made it their specialty snowcone. At least it's watered down quite a bit.
We don't know what's worse: the idea of a sugary pickle juice snowcone or the fact that there is enough demand to be warranting this sort of thing.
Chunky New England Clam Chowder Popsicle
There are so many things wrong with this. First of all, canned soup isn't always the worst, but the idea of it leaves a bad taste in our mouth. But then there's the fact that they call it chunky, which would be fine if it were melted down into an actual soup. But then there's this and it just looks like an expired milk popsicle the way it's all congealed.
In the first place, who would want frozen soup? Then to decide that soup should be chunky clam chowder on a popsicle stick? That's just crossing a line.
Chips And Nutella
Look, we're all about dipping chips into things. There's quite the demand for salsa when it comes to chips and we will even consider dipping our chips into ketchup so long as it's a normal flavor to do so. But to dip this salty potato-based snack into chocolate and call that good food? There's just something wrong with that. Not that sweet and salty isn't a thing, but it's a potato chip people.
You don't see us dipping regular potatoes into chocolate (unless you count those Japanese McDonald's McChocopotato fries), so we don't want to see you doing this at home.
French Fries And Honey
Well, this is interesting. We were just talking about dipping french fries into chocolate and here we are with french fries in honey... and we have to say we're not so opposed to it Okay, here us out: chocolate is one thing because it's rich and creamy and doesn't seem to be the right dip for potatoes. But honey can make a bit of sense because at the end of the day it's mostly just sugary.
We already said that sweet and salty is a thing, so this can actually work out. Besides, honey mustard is a thing, so we don't see why this can't be an option.
Pizza And Honey
Similar to the last one, we aren't so sure that this is the most awful idea. After all, you can get pineapples on pizza, so why not a bit of honey? The sweetness probably helps cut through a bit of that oiliness to the pizza. We just think that if you're going to be doing something like this then it had better be on a plain slice of pizza.
The thought of this possibly going on a slice of mushroom makes our stomachs turn. Worse yet would be a slice of anchovy pizza, which we bet we just gave the idea to some crazy foodie.
Apples With Salt And Pepper
Okay, seasoning certain things make sense. Heck, even adding a pinch of salt to your apple pie might give it a bit of flare. But if you're going to be eating fresh fruits or vegetables, we are generally of the opinion that you don't need to season it at all. Especially apples which are super sweet right from the get-go! Even if you do add some salt do you really have to add pepper??
We have no idea who or why anyone would like this, but, apparently, they don't hate it. But this is not something that deserves to be treated like a steak, sorry.
Peanut Butter And Pickle Sandwich
Okay, we hear people swear by this sometimes. Out of all the crazy things on this list, this is by far one of the weirdest, yet, definitely, the most talked-about combinations. We have heard of this so many times but have yet to actually try one ourselves. And that's for good reason. We can't imagine this having any sort of deliciousness to it, but if it's your thing, by all means.
Although, we might just have to bite the bullet one day and see how this thing fairs to other sandwiches. After all, if it's this popular it can't be so bad...right?
Watermelon With Feta
This one is also a pretty popular one, we've heard. It's definitely a pretty popular delicacy around our area, but we've never tried it ourselves. There's just something off about putting salty milk curds all over our juicy, succulent, refreshing watermelons. Watermelons, to us, are something you take with you on a hot summer's day to the beach to keep yourself cool and hydrated as well as not hungry.
But putting cheese on it turns it into something that doesn't seem like a light snack anymore. Still, some people swear by this and we might just have to try it one day.
Mashed Sweet Potato With Avocado And Kiwi
Sweet potatoes: best vegetable ever. Avocado: super popular, and for good reason. Kiwi: beautiful and delicious fruit. All of these things separately can make for some of the best snacks ever, but when combined you get all sorts of chaos. Avocado has a flavor that makes people think it's a vegetable and sweet potato seems a bit too sweet for that. Throwing in the kiwi just adds to the confusion.
All of these things have flavor profiles that don't fit well with each other. Why anyone would think to put these together, then, we will never understand.
Avocado...Latte
Speaking of avocado, after seeing this we definitely think the obsession has gone too far. Don't get us wrong, we love avocado, but it's the misuse of this fruit like this one and the last one that makes us lose what little hope we have for humanity. In fact, at least the one before this had the decency to at least be normal and simply a weird combination. This? ... Well, see for yourself.
Having some avocado for breakfast with your cup o' Joe doesn't sound bad, but it crosses a line when you're having that coffee out of the avocado itself.
Banana Bacon Skewer
We all love shishkebabs and one of the best things about them is that you can mix and match your favorite meat cutlets and vegetables and stick 'em on the flame for a delicious meal. But then there are those crazy combinations that we think you should probably never touch. This is one of them. Bananas are delicious. Bacon is great. But America's bacon obsession does not justify this:
When will people stop wrapping things in bacon and calling it the next bet thing? At this rate, we don't think it will ever stop. And this won't be the last thing on this list to be bacon-wrapped.
Cookie Burger
Someone must have been blazed to high heaven because this seems like the ultimate stoner food. a burger and cheese slapped between two cookies honestly do not seem like a delicious combination in any way. Cookies are the perfect dessert to have after a burger, but slapping them together is just spoiling your dinner. Though maybe the right type of cookie would make a good burger, this does not seem like the one.
We think that the addition of cheese just makes this all that much worse. If it was just the burger... no, wait, neither of these two things would be okay with chocolate chip cookies. Sorry.
Chocolate Covered Bacon
Okay, this bacon stuff has to stop before it gets any worse. Chocolate coverings are usually something you'd see on the most delicious of fruits like strawberries or bananas. But to put it on bacon like this is like doing a disservice to both bacon and chocolate. Whoever decided they needed to do this needs to cease and desist. Otherwise, they might spread this like a disease.
And now that we think of it, there's no way that the bacon is nice and hot anymore. And if you refrigerate it, it'll probably lose its cripsiness. Cold floppy bacon doesn't sound so good, even in chocolate.
Peanut Butter And Raw Onion Sandwich
First, we had a peanut butter and pickle sandwich which was admittedly something that we found to be pretty common amongst people. But this is taking it to a whole new level. This is literal raw onions on a peanut butter sandwich. What is the allure here? Maybe it's something a bit similar to some Asian dishes which use onions and peanut sauce for the dressing.
If anyone wants to try it, you can go ahead and tell us how it is. That's going to be about as close as we get to something like this.
Peanut Cola
Just why? Do the peanuts even add any flavor to the drink? We can understand maybe drinking some cola while eating some peanuts, but this is a whole other thing altogether. We have so many questions with no answers to show for them. Like, do the peanuts come up through the straw? Is the cola extra salty now? How many peanuts do you put in that?
We guess we'll have to see for ourselves. This one is relatively benign, so we don't think it'll be all to hard to stomach for testing purposes.
Peanut Butter, Banana, And Hard Boiled Egg Sandwich
And here we have yet another peanut butter sandwich, ruined. We love peanut butter and bananas. Maybe not so much when they're on bread, but we can't deny our love for bananas. But then to take that and slap some hard-boiled eggs on it just seems like sacrilege. It's not just eggs and bananas and it's not just eggs and peanut butter, it's both trapped between two fluffy bread cushions.
We don't think we could stomach those combinations in general and them all together just make it worse. But what's even worse is the number of eggs on the sandwich. You know that's got to be one of the overwhelming flavors in it.
Beans And Sunny Side Up Eggs On Pizza
It seems like peanut butter sandwiches and pizza are going to be a running theme on this list as many people are desperate to ruin an already great thing. Here we have an abomination like none other: baked beans and sunny-side-up eggs arranged to look like shakshuka sitting atop a pizza. If that isn't the grossest thing you've ever seen, we don't know what is.
For us, this is just another thing that might be good beside each other, but not together. People have got to stop throwing their whole dining room table into one vile dish.
Soy Sauce Ice Cream
This is one of those things that's there to shock and amaze. We have to admit, it does look pretty good on a plate. But the overall theme seems pretty confusing. Like, is it supposed to make the ice cream more like Asian cuisine? Or maybe more classy? Because we don't think making daring dishes is really the way to go when you're trying to liven something up.
Still, if they have it at a restaurant that looks like this, we can't argue that it isn't asked for. We just want to know who and why people buy this.
Banana Pizza
Here we go again, some more pizza shenanigans. Well, to be fair, if you can put pineapple on pizza, then you can put pretty much any fruit on pizza, can't you? We once had this white cream pizza that had figs, arugula, and a balsamic reduction sauce drizzled on top, and that was probably one of the best pizzas we've ever had. So this might not be so much of a stretch.
Ah, who are we kidding? This is definitely not the place to be putting your bananas. If you want to try something new with your bananas, how about eating them instead of playing with them?
Baked Bean Donuts
Beans, beans, they're good for your heart. The more you eat, the more you... realize how many people have a totally weird obsession with them and should probably seek professional guidance on how to stop. This is clearly where things start to go downhill because in no way should there ever be baked beans as a filling inside of a donut. This is not red bean paste, these are probably Hunt's baked beans.
Donuts are meant to be filled with jelly, custard, whipped cream, anything sweet pretty much, unless they're a savory donut. Even then you probably shouldn't be filling them with baked beans.
Hard Boiled Egg Oatmeal
Okay, we're adding another thing to the list of things that is a recurring theme on this list: hard-boiled eggs. It seems after all this that people are far more obsessed with hard-boiled eggs than we thought as they'll put it into anything. Separately, hard-boiled eggs and oatmeal can be part of a healthy and balanced breakfast. Together... well, you get this absolute monstrosity:
That doesn't even look delicious in the slightest. And we are also under the impression that that is some sort of sweet oatmeal and this is now making us very uncomfortable.
Chocolate Covered Pickles
You can't just cover something in chocolate and call it delicious. Back when chocolate was starting to become popular, it was an expensive and sophisticated delicacy. Now, people are using it for all manner of acts that violate the relationship between man and chocolate. Okay, maybe we're going a little overboard here, but so is covering pickles in chocolate. It would be one thing if it were cucumbers, but this is just disgusting.
Like who in their right mind would spend the time to cover pickles in chocolate and serve it up like this? They must be out of their minds.
Snickers Stuffed Pickles
But what could be worse than pickles dipped in chocolate? Probably this. Someone actually went out of their way to dig a hole out of some pickles to shove a Snickers bar into it. This takes the meaning of "Hungry? Eat a Snickers" to a whole new level. And why are people so fascinated with all of the bizarre things you can do to eat a pickle? It's just crazy.
It may be pretty close to eating a peanut butter and pickle sandwich, but instead of bread you have chocolate, caramel, and nougat all tied into this mess. Please stop.
Mint Chocolate Chip Fried Chicken
Mint chocolate chip is one of the greatest flavors to have ever been invented. That's why this personally offends us. To take something so great and holy, something that we value more than many things in this world, and drizzle it onto something that isn't worthy of its praise is utterly insane. Especially when that thing is fried chicken and you can dress it with a perfectly suited sauce.
Not to mention it looks like someone just melted toothpaste onto the chicken and topped it with some chocolate. What a waste of some perfectly made fried chicken.
Peep Pizza
What's another way you can ruin a pizza? By putting peeps onto them. This isn't even ordinary marshmallows and that pizza is most certainly not a dessert pizza, so what is the meaning of this? It feels like an experiment gone all wrong. Apparently, according to the title of the post, it was something they got as an idea from watching Rob Czar on "Man vs. Din", whatever the heck that is.
This was what they had to say about it: "Ladies and gents I have to say this was actually really good! Wouldn't make a whole pizza like this but a personal-sized one was perfect. If you have some peeps leftover I recommend giving it a shot."
Ground Pork With Gummy Bears
You can't make this stuff up, folks. This is a real package of meat in a real supermarket. As you can see on the label, it clearly reads "pork brat patties w/gummy bears". This is a real thing that they really expect people to cook up and eat for themselves. It even has the mandatory safe cooking instructions right on there so you know that this is legitimate.
This is something that supposedly started in Minnesota in 2008. Since then, it has seemed to gain popularity but this stuff is never going to touch our lips ever.
Blue Powerade Pasta
It just doesn't get any better, does it? We once talked about this blue pasta and it seems that wasn't going to be the last time we saw it. At least this one had the decency to not include a blue Powerade cream sauce to go over the top of the noodles, but this is still something straight out of a nightmare. They didn't even put anything onto the noodles.
Like, if you're going to have plain noodles, do you really have to boil them in Powerade? That just seems like a literal recipe for disaster and we want nothing to do with it.
Nutella Pasta
Speaking of pasta, now we have this monstrosity to look at. This person took regular pasta (sans the Powerade, thank the good lords) and spread over it none other than Nutella. And to top it all off, they also added some shredded cheese on top. The poster of this... thing said "I just wanna pasta and candy at the same time so... I did sweet noodles". This certainly is... sweet.
Did a child make this? We hope they ate all of this because that would be such a waste of food otherwise. Hopefully, they liked it because that does not seem appetizing.
Spicy Salmon Waffle Cone
When sushi meets American culture, you probably get something like this. We kind of feel like they were trying to go for that sushi cone thing that has become pretty popular, but then didn't realize that the cone was supposed to be made out of things that you would normally find in sushi. This is almost as bad as that buttered lobster-flavored ice cream with real bits of lobster.
Hopefully, enough people didn't buy this that the restaurant stopped making it altogether. We really hope no one actually sat down and ate this thing. If so, it was probably on a dare.
Applesauce Pizza Sandwich
We decided to bring you one of the more mild ones to help after that all-out assault on your appetite. While still not the most appetizing thing on this list, we can see a potential appeal for this sort of thing. According to u/Cuchini07, "My boss puts applesauce on his pizza, slaps them together and eats it like a sandwich". There are a few things wrong with this, but we can maybe let it slide after the last few.
We think maybe the worst part about it is that someone is out there eating to slices of pizza at a time like a sandwich. That just kinda take the fun out of it, but to each their own.
Nacho Cheese Doritos, Monster, And Mountain Dew Shake
Okay, now after that one, here's another horrifying idea that someone out in the world came up with. We honestly never thought we would see anything as vile as this in our entire lifetime, but here we are. This is just taking all of the things that should not be had together and putting them through a blender. Doritos are great, but Mountain Dew and Moster are two things that have either never been in or were taken out of our lives.
Apparently, somone out there would hear of no such thing. They blended them all together and hopefully gagged on it and immediately threw it into the trash because we don't want to have to think about someone enjoying this.
Nutella Toast
From the title, that sounds pretty good, wouldn't you say? Well, just wait until you see the photo. According to u/iwuznevergivenaname, "My son has numerous sensory issues with food. But today he made this monstrosity. The noodle Nutella toast." If their son has some sort of disability, we definitely don't want to judge but... we can all agree that this is something that should have never been allowed to exist, right?
Well, it wouldn't be our first time discovering ramen and chocolate together, and it won't be our last. In fact, why don't we show you one of the things we're talking about right now?
Chocolate Ramen
Yes, that's right, there are actual people out there who will make ramen with chocolate. Well, clearly this isn't anything authentic, but there are some novelty items you can get around the world that do replicate this concept. But that's just the thing; they're novelty items. They aren't supposed to be eaten regularly or made by your own hands as an actual meal for yourself. So why, we have to ask?
It also doesn't really seem to be working. We would expect the chocolate to melt seamlessly into the soup base, but that doesn't seem to be happening. Chocolate chip ramen, anyone?
"Steaknana"
Finally, we have our last corruption of the beloved banana. For some reason, someone decided the right call would be to eat a banana with their steak, not after it. And to top it all off, they literally topped it all off with ketchup. And it's also served alongside a glass of milk as if this couldn't get any worse. Like, it would be one thing if they were eating it all separately, but you can tell they've committed to eating it together.
Well, we don't ever want to touch food again. We just might have flashbacks to all the ways people ruin our favorite things the next time we try. Welp, it was good knowing you, food.
