Default Weird combinations

Has anybody ever mixed really "unmixable" foods together? I've always wanted to put skittles in peanut butter sandwiches, but have never tried it. It probably would be good.

I don't know that this would be "unmixable," but I think it's a little weird: I love wrapping grapes in pieces of sliced American cheese.

My grandma used to eat peanut butter, cheese, banana, and lettuce leaf sandwiches. Does that qualify as a weird combination??

I have a friend that makes their own homemade chocolate covered pretzels (not the pretzels but the chocolate covering), and serves them with cream cheese.

It didn't taste as bad as I thought it would, but then again, I was 6 the last time I ate one of those sandwiches. I don't think they would taste as good to my adult tastes.

Yes, the chocolate covered pretzels dipped in the cream cheese were very good. For some reason, I think the cream cheese was green. That could have been a St Patricks day thing, I can't remember or think of why else the cream cheese would be green. Next time I see Barbara, I'll ask her about the green cream cheese.

I'm pregnant, and I eat cheddar cheese cubes dipped in Catalina or French dressing. They both taste good, but I prefer the Catalina.

My friend got me started on dipping my pizza in a mix of shredded cheddar cheese, Ranch dressing, and bacon bits.
