Lamb roasted in marmalade is also very nice.
Marmite & Spam white bread sandwiches
Honey and lettuce sandwiches.
The best honey for this is the light runny stuff and the best lettuce cos or romaine.
Try it.
The other thing worth trying is salt in coffee : only a little bit like a twist of the salt mill or a McDonalds salt portion in a full cafetiere of coffee. It's particularly effective with cheap or stale ground coffee as it seems to neutralise the bitterness.
Galaxy Chocolate and plain pringle in mouth at same time, lovely!
Boil an egg, cut into half horizontally, remove egg yolk, add vinegar, oil, salt, pepper, ketchup and maggi, put egg yolk back on top. Enjoy!
Ryvita cheese and marmite, thought it was weird until i tried it
McDonald's chicken McNuggets dipped in either a banana or vanilla milkshake...
...don't knock it til you've tried it
cheese and jam sandwich, or more commonly known as the miners sandwich.
just yum yum.
Half a poached pear on big field mushroom on top of 2" thick slice of fried bread with hole cut in middle and egg fried in t'hole.
Yum!

sorry haven't read any of the replies, but I love cheese sandwiches with tomato sauce - my mum made them for me since as young as I can remember, so for me they are 100% normal, but apparently other people find this combination odd.
I literally couldn't eat a cheese sandwich without tomato ketchup.
I know a bloke who has ketchup on everything hot
Just in case he dines somewhere that doesn't have ketchup, he actually carries a bottle in his car!!!!
Yes I do that. Vinegar too.I know a bloke who has ketchup on everything hot

This is especially important in the US where nowhere has vinegar.
Really??? Wow
Does anyone else carry condiments with them?
Toasted cheese sandwich Ketchup is a must, never tried with a normal one so will give it a go.
Garlic bread anyone?!!!
I always stock up on sachets of ketchup & vinegar from Ikea / MacDonalds etc, and keep them in the car for when I go to a restaurant that doesnt have them.
Really??? Wow

SuperbI love it
lol
doesnt everyone do this?!Superb
I also stock up on the "wet wipe" sachets from KFC and keep those in the car too (yes, I am a clean freak!). I never actually eat at KFC (the calories!!!!) - I just pop in to pinch the sachets.
We can make a team - I'll eat the KFC, you keep the sauces and wipes!!! lol
I have always had salt and a bottle of vinegar in the car. Goes back to my grandad, he used to do it just in case you get a chippy tea out!
I rarely go anywhere without a bottle of Tabasco. Probably just my undiscerning palate, but it enlivens the dullest meal.
Really??? Wow

Liking the idea of some of the sweet/savoury mixes already mentioned. My personal favourite is honey and marmite on toast. It just works.
Apple pie with cheese, which isn't at all unusual really. Especially if you are from Yorkshire.
As my mum always used to say (she was from Yorkshire). "Apple pie without the cheese is like a kiss without the squeeze."
..and of course, cheese with Christmas cake, which is also completely normal.
Everyone here thinks I am completely insane, but this is the country that invented the Dagwood Dog, which really shouldn't be classified as food at all.
This but with a rasher of bacon...
Cheese and marmalade on toast has been a favourite in our house for as long as I can remember.
Marmite and cheese is a mainstream combination. They even sell Marmite cheese.
I usually carry a small bottle of smoked naga chilli powder, or a small jar of naga chilli pickle. It can really help get me out of bland food Hell.

Strawberries with black pepper
Buttered toast with Bovril is lovely. My Dad always had a pot of dripping that he put on the toast and then Bovril.
I'm going to try beetroot in a beef stew. I think the sweetness of the beetroot should go.
Dunno if this is weird but I had a ham butty dipped in tomato soup today and it was very nice!
I agree, it's wonderful.Strawberries with black pepper
Peanut butter and banana on hot cinnamon and raisin bagel.... oh yum - I used to eat these when training hard, it's something close to a thousand calories per serving :D
In Germany, a local dish, Mett with gherkins.... Mett is minced raw pork which makes a lot of tourists very, very cautious but it's to die for!
Cheese & jam sandwich (on fresh white bread, naturally)
Yummy!
Cheese on crumpets-it's the future!
Cheese and salami on crumpets, FTFY.
I imagine that if you mix dripping and Bovril really well, you'd end up with a cow ?
HA yes a favourite of mine at University.
Funny, these all seem to be either very studenty sounding or full on Heston style!
I'll add my step-father in law's discovery - tinned tuna on Oreos...
Had deep fried Oreos earlier this year. Not everyday snack, but pretty good.
My boy loves cinnamon and raisin bagels with butter and Marmite ( hes 7 )
I'm also a fan but, to be fair, it's cured rather than raw; sort of like ham mince. It's also fantastic with the green jalapeno tabasco.
My one, recently discovered, is lemon curd on Swedish pepparkakor biscuits.
Not weird at all, that's a very common culinary habit in Italy. A chunk of quality parmesan with honey is delicious!
I like Earl Grey tea with milk.
I know, I know.
It marks me out as a heretic.
I too only drink Earl Grey with milk.I thought it was the norm
As do I!I too only drink Earl Grey with milk.I thought it was the norm
Apparently it's a UK thing - but i've recently been introduced to cheese and apple by my British gf, who knew??
Genuine question.... Is all Parmigiano Reggiano created equal? I mean if a parmesan has satisfied the criteria to be Parmigiano Reggiano, is that it? Or are there levels of quality within that designation? In Sainsbury's they sell Parmigiano Reggiano and also 'Taste The Difference' Parmigiano Reggiano for an extra £1.20. Should I be spending the extra....
It's good to know that it's only these things that trouble me....
Thought you might know?

I too only drink Earl Grey with milk.I thought it was the normGlad to hear it - although I should warn you that for many, it's tantamount to treason.
Never mind global socio-economic injustice, Ebola and climate change, for many, mixing Earl Grey with milk is something invidious.
I remember one whey-faced pencil-pusher leaning over to me after I'd ordered the concoction at a client lunch and whispering 'With milk? Are you sure that's the impression you want to give?'
I never did like him.
Cinnamon and sugar on buttered toast. As kids mum used to make this for us, grew up with it and still like it. Just wondering now if anyone else had tried it?
