I love coconut curry. I love shrimp. I hate coconut shrimp.
Also, menudo. I can’t say which ingredients exactly did not jive. But there was no jiving.
Ice cream + soda = frothy vomit. Can’t handle that weird foam that ice cream floats make.
And probably more amusing was my tuna omelet I tried to make as a kid. I enjoy tuna, and I enjoy eggs, and I even enjoy them together if the egg is hard boiled. That omelet went right into the trash, though.
I used to make these in college. IIRC, it was one shot of amaretto, one shot of root beer schnapps, topped off with a bit of rum, lit on fire and dropped into a beer. Chug the whole thing down.
It does sort of taste like Dr. Pepper, but I cannot stand Dr. Pepper, so it’s entirely possible that it doesn’t taste like Dr. P at all. I don’t drink DP enough to be that intimately familiar with the flavor
Re: the OP. Chocolate & raspberries. Bleargh. And mint with lemon. Double bleargh.
Our local Indian restaurant makes an awesome Chicken Korma. I have taken it home a couple times and washed it down with my favorite beverage: Diet Cherry Vanilla Dr Pepper. Tastes terrible every time. I don’t know why I can’t remember that before I open the can.
Meat + fruit never works. Not even ham and pineapple.
Oh - no no no.
Fruit and meat works all the time - roast pork and apple sauce for instance. Venison and cherry sauce. Lamb and mint (er - never mind)…
Black and blue cheeseburgers. Love burgers, love bacon, love blue cheese but hate this burger. The cheese and bacon clash and the sheer awesomeness of the ingredients is a bit overwhelming.
Any pizza with BBQ sauce instead of tomato sauce.
Fruit and chocolate. Not even chocolate covered strawberries. The textures just seem so odd to me, and things like fruit-flavored chocolate bars (dark chocolate raspberry for example) are just weird-tasting. Keep your stinkin’ healthy fruit out of my chocolate.
Did you steal my taste buds?
Actually, I really experimented with blue cheese & burgers, and I found that getting a Whopper with only onion and lettuce, and adding blue cheese, was paradise.
And BBQ sauce must never touch my pizza. Neither shall chicken, lettuce, or green peppers.
George Thorogood did a song called One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer .
I like the song, so one day when I was bored and it was playing on the jukebox, I asked the barmaid to gimme one bourbon, one scotch, and one beer.
It was totally awful.
How bad could that be though? You drink your bourbon, have some beer, drink the scotch, finish off the beer. It’s not like you’re mixing them.
I like the song too and have always wanted to order a bourbon, a scotch and a beer.
Orange Juice and Mountain Dew. Two great tastes that taste horrible together. Then again, add some vodka and you have what I call a Death Ray, which tastes even more horrible, but is glowing like sci-fi and has a taste to mask the alcoholic strength (Or instead, add absinthe for an 1890’s-style Death Ray :))
Cheetos and onion dip. Just say no.
Chocolate and cheesecake. I like them both separately, but together I do not like.
Try it. I did the shot of bourbon, then the shot of scotch, then the beer. Each made the next taste wrong. Try it!
(BTW, I will drink bourbon or scotch on the rocks, and I love beer)
Had a cup of coffee at work one day. Instead of adding the usual sugar packet or two someone had a an open bag of cherry Jolly Ranchers sitting on the counter.
I like flavored coffees and from what I’ve seen at the coffee shops they just add a shot or two of what looks to be artificially flavored syrups probably made with HFCS. Same stuff I assumed Jolly Ranchers are made of.
So I dropped 4 Jolly Ranchers in where they soon disolved.
Nasty. Vile. Bitter. Blech. Down the drain.
Four of them!? I don’t know if even one is too much, but four Jolly Ranchers is about a quarter to a half the volume of a coffee cup. If you work up the courage again, watermelon is a more subtle flavor. Still, thanks for taking one in the name of science!
Definitely not my favorite-- but I apparently don’t find it terrible enough not to eat occasionally!
zombie alert
It was either bring up a zombie or start the exact same thread.
Mine are
Eggs with cheddar cheese. I love eggs, I like cheddar. I love eggs with swiss cheese. But I don’t like eggs with cheddar cheese
Chocolate and any bread product that you wouldn’t consider to be cake.
Chocolate cake is good.
Chocolate chip pancakes? No. Chocolate croissant? No. It’s a strong enough dislike that if I eat chocolate right after eating bread, I’ll dislike the effect
