A) Putting caramel topping on chocolate chip mint ice cream. OR B) Eating cereal and milk (specifically Frosted Mini-Wheats) with a fork. ---

I think A is odd, and perhaps unwise, but B is more inexplicable. ---

[QUOTE=Hal Briston] A) Putting caramel topping on chocolate chip mint ice cream. OR B) Eating cereal and milk (specifically Frosted Mini-Wheats) with a fork. [/QUOTE] B is weirder. Caramel topping is acceptable on any kind of ice cream. Eating cereal with a fork defeats the purpose of including all that delicious, calcium-rich milk. ---

Why the hell would you put milk on perfectly good cereal? 😛 ---

What’s odd with either? ---

A… that’s nasty. B doesn’t matter because you can drink the milk directly from the bowl. ---

Option B seems very odd to be while option A seems like a good time to me 😛 . ---

I vote B. Not because it’s very weird, but because A sounds delicious. ---

B has a certain amount of peculiar wastefulness (especially seeing as how most Frosted Mini-Wheats I have handled break apart fairly easily) that makes it far odder than A. ---

Another vote for B… ---

A sounds wonderful. So I’ll go with B by default. ---

B is rather odd. I don’t see anything wrong at all with A. ---

A isn’t at all weird, maybe not everyone’s cup of tea but it’s not like you’re using shoe polish or ketchup here, you’re putting ice cream topping on, gasp, ice cream. B is weird. ---

B is definitely weirder. ---

B is weirder. Caramel on anything is always acceptable. ---

B. I’d have to taste A to see if it was weird. It sounds like it might taste odd, but then I said that about ketchup on scrambled eggs, and then I liked it when I tried it. B just sounds . . . unstable. I can picture me dropping things down my front. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-quick-survey-which-is-weirder/423330.md?page=2)
