There will be some amazing food eaten in the next week or so BUT…
What things do you put in a meal that have no right to go together (conventionally that is!)?
I'll kick it off.
LEEK & POTATO SOUP (BAXTERS IN THE BEST FOR THIS) WITH TINNED TUNA ADDED IN - before or after nuking it doesn't real matter. Black pepper. Crusty bread.
Sounds so wrong and always gets a WTF reaction…until it's sampled.
Next...
Granny Smith and Polos.
Mccoys salt and malt dipped in live sreawberry yoghurt is my fav! Once in a bluemoon treat.
Congratulations to the above on your pregnancy news
Banana and Mackerel, luvvverly.

I'M NOT PREGNANT, I'M JUST FAT! 😡
People seem to think I'm weird for having peanut butter on toast with either tomato or cucumber. Also, marmite and peanut better together is strangely nice.
S&V Chipsticks lovingly placed on top of a milk chocolate digestive biscuit. Lush!
mature cheddar with salt and vinegar crisps sandwiched between 2 slices of soreen.
Food of champions. c/o Woj.
I like cheese and jam together, the wife think's I'm mad but it's lovely.
Sating that she dips her toast in her tea, nutter.
Cheddar, marmite and cashew nut butter on crumpets
I like cheese and jam together, the wife think's I'm mad but it's lovely.
cheese (mature cheddar) and blackcurrent jam in my sarnies today. yum
Another vote for jam and cheese, yummy 🙂
another killer combo is welsh cakes, thick layer of butter and very thin slices of cheddar cheese.
Has to be proper welshcakes not the shit covered in sugar that you buy from shops
Cream cheese and chopped dates. Sandwich filling of AWESOMENESS.

Toast
Mmmm lovely toasted sandwich! 😛
Xmas cake and strong mature cheddar
Jesus - I was told I'd created a monster, but YOU lot!
Mine looks relatively mainstream 😉
Someone I know eats dry Weetabix spread with butter... Disgusting 😕
marmite and peanut better together...
Is that a Scottish Unionist recipe?
Cheese is great with jam or Fruit cake. I also like jam with peanut butter.
Xmas cake and strong mature cheddar
Waste of good christmas cake. Unless yours isn't very good ;-).
Fruit cake and cheese is good, but it needs to be a traditional dry fruit cake.
RE: xmas cake and cheese, Wensleydale is your friend here.
Advocado & poached egg on toast.
Mince pies and Stilton. Keeping it seasonal.
Our American neighbour has just issued her annual invitation to a Christmas "brunch" at which she always serves bananas wrapped in bacon.
This is considerably worse than it sounds.
I like cheese and jam together, the wife think's I'm mad but it's lovely.
Cheeses and Marmalade is how it should be served.
Peanut butter and carrot
Donner meat dipped in korma sauce.
Cheese and jam rolls used to be the standard choice of roadies before all these pathetic gels.
The weirdest thing I heard someone ask for in a sandwich shop was "ham, jam, onion and mustard".
Two of my favourites seem to split opinion... Cream cheese and banana sandwiches. Cottage cheese and marmite on toast.
Banana, mandarin, chickpea and tea curry. Trust me it's ace.
Being a philistine in most measures I wasn't introduced to stilton and mince pie until recently. I scoffed at it initially. And then scoffed it. And some more.

Somebody here at work had a combo for breakfast that opened my eyes.....
Poached eggs on Marmite toast..... Now I'm a Marmite fan, I'm a poached egg fan but have never tried this. I may have to give it a whirl at Christmas.
Anyone else have experience of this one?!
marmite and peanut better together is strangely nice.
Toast, butter, marmite, peanut butter, ketchup, ground pepper.
Try it.
Poached eggs on Marmite toast.....
Pretty much anything on toast gets the marmite treatment here. Eggs, beans, cheese, all better for a thick spread of marmite.
Toast, beetroot salad, horseradish sauce, toast
Firey summer goodness. Makes you fart like thunder for several hours too
When bikepacking or backpacking:
Boil water, chuck in packet veg soup, add spicy Cous cous packet.
It tastes weird but it's a genius idea!
My sandwich of choice big ride days- also known as the sandwich that killed Elvis:
A crusty cob (what we call a bread roll in the civilised part of the country) , buttered, with streaky bacon, peanut butter and apricot conserve.
My riding pals always ask if i'm bringing the Elvis sandwiches. As well as the date & coconut chewy bar that I make.
Digestive biscuits dunked in red wine
Binners - are you going to start this week's Friday EDL thread with that evil combination?
I give you (not mine, obviously) soup in a bread bowl

Soup in a bread bowl! We had that in the Czech republic.
very strong cheddar on a dark (mind you) chocolate digestive biscuit.
very ripe strawberries, with a dusting of black pepper.
Not overly extreme in "weird" category, but big time tasty: Soreen spread generously with peanut butter topped with chunky banana slices...
Strong cheddar with lemon juice drizzled over it is bloody lovely.
Unpasteurized cheddar with apple pie
Peanut butter and marmalade sandwiches
Gin and cucumber
Bacon, peanut butter, and marmalade sandwiches.
I also like to spread marmalade on toast with a full English. As well as the HP.
Strong cheddar and marmalade. Cream cheese and marmite. Marmite on toast HAS to be served with a glass of strong Ribena. Other black currant drinks are available, but it's only Ribena that cuts it. Yorkshire pudding and lemon curd.
EDIT: Will have to try the cheese and mince pies or Xmas cake.
Some of my wife's wacky ideas:
Cheese and jam, cheese and honey, cheese and nutella, cheese and marmalade, jaffa cake with stilton (can you see a theme here?).

Eat that regularly - it's ace. With loads of marmite too.
Toast, butter, marmite, peanut butter, ketchup, ground pepper.Try it.
Not convinced but I'll give it a go.
Anything that involves peanut butter or marmite is witchcraft!
Corned beef, tomato sauce & kit kat sarnies dipped in hazelnut yogurt
Cream cheese and chopped dates. Sandwich filling of AWESOMENESS.
Add a few chopped leaves of fresh mint to that for the ultimate win.
Mine is peanut butter and HP sandwiches. Mmmmmmm
Cheddar cheese and runny honey, preferably in a pitta bread.
The legendary one in my family is kipper and marmalade sandwiches, but I'm not brave enough to try that combination...
peanut butter and pickle on toast.
Sandwich- Fish fingers, cheddar cheese, fried egg with sweet chilli sauce.
Or if you prefer some a little more 'genteel' try a blue cheese dolchelata or a proper Stilton with a desert wine. Not as a smoothly or anything eat the cheese. Drink the wine. You know how it works...
BBQ Pringles and Tia Maria,
I'm not exactly proud of discovering this.

A proper working breakfast here is Marmite on toast, topped with baked beans, topped with scrambled eggs. Ace!
