Huh. I love me some chocolate oranges. And I’m not even that big a fan of chocolate. Mr. singular, a chocoholic, likes 'em too, along with the chocolate limes they sell at Xmas. They’re ubiquitous at the holidays. I would’ve never thought they were unpopular…
menthol cigarette smoke and Bazooka bubble gum.
Ripe banana
Mature cheddar (or other strong cheese).
Tastes like vomit.
Chocolate oranges are great! Chocolate raspberries taste like rubber.
Chocolate limes? Tell me more.
Sour cream and Chorizo.
When I was about ten years old my sister ate some popcorn and then she ate a saltine cracker. As she complained greatly about the resulting taste I’ve never tried this myself, but I’ll take her word for it.
Just now someone at work gave me some of her Easter candy (chocolate). After eating one of the offered pieces I took a swig of my Coke and was reminded of why this isn’t a good combination.

Never tried it, but I’ve always wondered about that old southern favorite, a Snickers bar & Pepsi.
Comment, southern dopers?
A handful of Plain M&M’s and the dregs of the Jellybean Bowl, together. You know, those white, grape, and black jellybeans, or otherwise weird nondescript flavors, that nobody else wants to eat at the bottom of the bowl. It was quite disgusting, taste and texure wise, and a bit of a surprise, as someone dumped the M&M’s in the not quite empty jellybean bowl…
Actually, I’ve experimented with this on several occasions and I’ve come to the conclusion that, with the right beer, it’s not that bad.
Try it with a Magic Hat #9 sometime.
Reminds me. The new chocolate flavored Skittles are death in a bag.
Chocolate and bubble gum–the gum sort of dissolves. Gross.
I think they show up around St. Patrick’s Day. Same deal as the Chocolate Orange, and really tasty. But I don’t know if it’s by Terry, since I don’t know if that’s the maker of the local chocolate/raspberry orange. Now granted, this was in the Seattle area in Cost Plus, an Import shop, and you might understand why my google-fu is weak finding the fabled chocolate lime. But my mouth remembers, and salivates, just a little…
This has been our breakfast at the race track more than once. Just don’t buy hydrox, or double stuff and you will be fine.
Then of course there’s always . . .
Chocolate and peanut butter are two great tastes: I find the mixture of both (Reese’s cups et al) an abomination, inedible, nausea-inducing.
As I feel that others are unlikely to agree with me, I’d like to suggest fresh pineapple chunks and foie gras.
Warm orange juice and warm flat pepsi. I’m not sure if these are any better combined when one or both or cold, but this particular combination made me violently ill.
As far as disgusting tastes that didn’t make me physically ill: M&M partially dissolved in Mountain Dew = yuck. What can I say? I was bored, and had a bottle of Mountain Dew and a packet of M&M’s. I poured some Dew in the bottle cap, plopped a M&M in, and waited. Not good eating.
The worst stomachache I ever got was when I decided to wash down my egg salad sandwich with orange soda. I love both seperately, but they combined to make me feel like sulfuric acid was eating me from the inside. The worst part was, despite how sick I felt, I couldn’t throw up–I just had to let it pass. One thing it’s hard to find anything that goes well with drink is fish. Juices, flavored sodas, tea, and of course milk–about the only beverages I can drink with fish is colas and water.
Ever tried white wine?
Um, no, I will not be fine. I have tried it and I was not fine. If one finds it to be fine one has probably overindulged in the beer and by the time they indulge in the oreos their taste buds are unconscious.
I had this one happen to me as well, but instead of chocolate, I had one of those pastel creamy mints (shaped like a Hershey Kiss, with white candy specks like on a nonpariel). Dunno what possessed me to eat one at the same time as a gumball, but I ended up with a sticky mush in my mouth that adhered to tongue, tooth, gum, and cheek.
While stocking cough drops in my pharmacy last night, I started to think again about the weird concept of combining mint with… most anything. Mint’s bad, but menthol is worse. Strawberry/menthol? Ginger ale/mentho (a real Halls variety)l? Cherry/menthol? Is there any taste that goes with menthol?
