Are there just some foods you can't eat together? I had lunch at a friend's the other

[dawnnys]

day and realized that I cannot eat tomatoes with any other sweet fruit, like grapes in the sandwich along with the chicken salad. The thought of biting into a sandwich with the taste of grapes and also the taste of the tomato makes me kinda gag.

Dairy and cola are another. Is this quirky, or does anyone else have "must not go together" foods?

Shiso and....

ANYTHING.

GOD I LOATHE SHISO. lol

 

[steve2-in-la]

Cooked avocado with ANYTHING. (Except tequila. That goes with everything.)

What--no Pepsi and Milk?. . .

The thought of that used to really gross me out while watching Laverne and Shirley. . .

NO COKE FLOATS???

 

[angak1]

chocolate and fruit. no thanks. I can stand a choc covered strawberry though, at Disneyland

I can't stand raw tomatoes on the side with tuna salad.The tomatoes make the tuna taste fishy.

 

[meryl]

Ditto for the most part.

 

[dawn_mo]

I agree 100%!

 

[melissa-dallas]

Lots of things I like better without chocolate

 

[melissa-dallas]

I don't like garlic in mashed potatoes. I'm a purist.

 

[amanda_pennsylvania]

Cilantro and anything else.

I've really tried over the years, but I just don't like cilantro.

Did you know that if you mix cola and milk and add

rum, it will taste like a root beer float. Don't ask how I know these things. Not kidding.

 

[melissa-dallas]

Lots don't, but they have a hard time avoiding it in Texas

 

[florisandy]

Beer and gum. Does that count?

 

[meryl]

I hate cheese and fruit together.

 

[joe]

Me too on cooked avo, but what's Shiso? (Don't worry I'm sure I'll hate it.)

 

[joe]

Toothpaste and orange juice. Otherwise I can't think of any conventional pairing I can't stand

I must be a philistine.

 

[meryl]

I also hate sweet stuff with cheese, such as honey.
