If you can tolerate pineapple on pizzas, definitely stay open-minded to these unconventional food combinations #neversaynever
From Peruvian food to healthy acai bowls, there are certainly an array of cuisines available in Hong Kong. But we also love discovering random weird food combinations at home that make life easier and a bit more interesting! So here are five of them that won the popular vote in our office.
Five weird food combinations that you should try
Apple and black pepper
Whoever first tried this is a genius. The spiciness of black pepper elevates the sweetness and tartness of the apples, giving it a flavour punch and making it unbelievably addicting. It’s my personal favourite. Just cut up your apple, sprinkle pepper on top and you’re good to go.
Sweet potato and cocoa powder
Is this a vegan thing? Probably. Given that sweet potato is often incorporated in vegan brownie baking, it’s reasonable to dip your boiled sweet potatoes (better cold) in some healthy cocoa powder as snacks. It tastes simply like a chocolate munchie and it’s hella healthy.
Peanut butter and pickle sandwich
We’ve all seen this one the internet. When indulgent peanut butter meets the distinctive flavour of pickles, it’s definitely one of the wickedest weird food combinations ever. Much better than a normie’s pb&j sandwich.
Fries and ice cream
Dig those fries in your vanilla soft serve. It tastes like summer and you will love how the saltiness and the sweetness blend together.
Ketchup and rice
As boring and broke as it sounds, this is actually a great way to flavour your rice. You can also try ketchup on pasta for a change.
