    I don't really think they're weird, but this is all I can think of!

    shredded coconut on taco salad/tacos - SO good. Makes it a million times better!

    Grilled cheese stuffed with with peaches

    oyster crackers in ice cream

    country gravy and scrambled eggs

    Pepsi and Dr Pepper mixed. Coke is ok too, but pepsi is the best. I pretty much do this anytime we go out and I get a coke. I've also been known to do a full on "Suicide" on occasion, using all the available drinks. Yes, as an adult. :)

    Yes to all of these.  I love doing half diet coke and half Dr Pepper.  Has to be fountain only.  The best "suicide" drink is when they have orange pop as one of the options too.  I'm a child with you.

    Oh man, y'all are missing out! Nothing better than a bite at dinner on Thanksgiving that has turkey, dressing, taters, green beans, gravy, and cranberry sauce all in one big bite! Yum! I'm a crazy food mixer though. I always take bites that involved 2-3 thing at almost every meal...

  • I also take my mashed potatoes and dip it into my corn and eat them together.  

    Potato chips belong on my sandwich too. 

    Yet I'm not a fan of casseroles because everything is mixed together and cooked.  It's okay if it's separate on my plate and I mix it.

    I am cringing at this! I wish plates with dividers were socially acceptable as dinner plates because I totally would have registered for those. Thanksgiving dinner gives me anxiety because there are too many good food to put on your plate and still have room not to touch!

  • I used to love pickle and mustard sandwiches.  I have't had one in forever.

    There's a burger place here that has a burger with cheese, peanut butter and bacon. I have pickles added and dip it in mustard. 

    And, I agree that chips are amazing on sandwiches and hot dogs.

  • I like the ketchup/mayo combo for fries as well. My preferred fry sauce though is tartar. I can't really think of anything else I eat that's weird together-probably because it isn't weird to me,

  • Cream cheese and jelly sandwich, cottage cheese and olives, pickles and banana peppers, pretty much everything I eat is weird!
  • @BruinsBabe33‌ I love cream cheese and jelly sandwiches! The school I worked at didn't allow nuts so I made cream cheese and jelly for lunch quite often.
