Unusual food combinations

If you don’t mind trying new food, then you might like some of these strange
combinations of food. Most of us eat the same foods all the time. When we go on
vacation we eat meals from different countries and we usually enjoy trying new food.

But here are some strange combinations of food for you to try:

Peanut butter and jam.

We all know this combination, but when you think about it… it is strange!

Cheese and potato chips and milk.

I tried this combination and some people may like the sweet and sour combination of
this, but I can’t stand it. I don’t think this idea will go viral!

French fries and ice cream.

These two tastes are very different, a mixture of sweet and salty. At first I didn’t like
this combination but when I finished the bowl. I decided that it was an amazing dish!

Pizza and chocolate.

OK, so you need to forget normal pizzas, forget cheese and forget ham. Now try your
pizza with chocolate.
You have to make a simple pizza and put the chocolate on the pizza when it comes
out of the oven and it is still hot.

Apples with salt and pepper.

Easy to make and a fun way to eat your fruit.

Avocado and chocolate.

If you love avocado and you love chocolate, then you might like this. I love them both
but I prefer to eat them separately.

1. _B_ The writer likes these foods,

a. Avocado and chocolate.
but not together.

2. _C_ The writer hates this

combination.

3. _E_ The writer doesn’t like this
