I am so relieved to see your post. For a moment I though I had waken up in the Twilight Zone where everybody likes mustard on chocolate chip cookies. ---

Here’s something I posted 12 years ago: > [@How can someone be a bad cook?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-can-someone-be-a-bad-cook/458222/55): > > I have a friend who is the Mozart of food. She has “perfect taste” analogous to “perfect pitch.” I’ve seen her come into my kitchen and fix a delicious meal with nothing but crackers, a few bottles of sauce on the shelf and some ancient veggies in the fridge. I think she has whatever it takes to be a really good cook - a fundamental and thorough understanding of what flavors and textures work well together, plus a basic understanding of cooking itself. One time, we were at Denny’s (a chain of m… The entire thread is worth a read. ---

Love the Denny’s story. My discovery came from last night’s dinner which was a sausage sandwich with mustard, and a couple of Chips Ahoy for dessert. Little did I know I had some mustard smeared on the palm of my hand which brushed just slightly against the cookie. It was so good I tried a cookie with a dot of mustard applied on top. It was a revelation! I’m trying it on a brownie next. ---

This reminds me of my dad’s favorite…cherry chip cake with a side of pepperoni. As kids, my sisters and I were always grossed out by this until we finally tried it. It’s very good. It’s just the sweet followed by the salty/savory thing. I never have cherry cake anymore, but once in a while after I’ve eaten a cookie or piece of chocolate, I’ll have a slice or two of pepperoni in memory of my dad. 🙂 ---

I grew up eating peanut butter & mustard crackers as a snack, turned onto them by my great-uncle. Still eat them to this day - a great interplay of salty/sweet/acidic. ---

Peanut butter and dill pickles, classic “kids” food I was taught by my dad. Probably as a joke, but I loved them. Another, cheddar cheese and grape jelly.
