I'm gonna go with game genres, specifically roguelikes and rhythm-based games. They sound terrible together and yet, Crypt of the Necrodancer (and also Cadence of Hyrule) is the shit.

Turn based + time pressure is just such an insane combination. Makes the simplest games insanely harder, escalates the potential for blunders and at the same time enables flow. Bullet chess is similar in that regard.
I once added a bottle of cherry Pepsi to my crock pot when making pulled pork and it was damn good.
The liquids used for carnitas are generally: milk, Mexican coke, orange juice and water. I could see the cherry coke being bomb

was that on purpose or by accident?
On purpose but I was quite high

Peanut butter is a massively underrated burger condiment.
A burger isnβt supposed to be sweet thoughβ¦
Not sure if all peanut butter variants are sweet? The only ones I have tried tasted savory, and some even felt somewhat salty. Maybe some have sugar added to them?
Well, here in Italy they complain a lot about pineapple on pizza but then eat ham on melon
Salt and anything sweet. Salt is a flavor enhancer and can make sweet flavors pop even more.
Also coffee. It doesn't make bad coffee good coffee, but it makes it less bad. Doesn't help Starbucks coffee however, nothing can.
Mmm, salmiak... when you get that perfect hit of sweet and salty at once! π
Salsa with cream cheese. Looks like vomit, which is actually a plus because you don't have to share!
My grandma used to make this. We call it pink slime.
It's delicious.
I always hated the idea to put beans and bananas together. It is a fairly common habit in my country, tho, but it's a no-no for me in general.
But once I tried a Nigerian dish that had beans, bananas, shrimps and pepper and I absolutely fucking loved it. Seriously, the flavor was from another world.
Forgive the spelling but I think that's called Egusi and the bananas are plantains, which are more savory than bananas. Really lovely fried!
Peanut butter goes really well in chicken flavor ramen.
We used to have a dude in our college dorms who used to sell Cup of Noodles with a spoon of peanut butter inside for like 3 bucks. It's a GREAT and cheap meal after those late nights at the bar.
This is how I upgrade all my noodles. Everyone asks my secret to make them creamy and nutty. I tell them "Add the ingredient in your kitchen called 'chunky peanut butter'" None of them believe me.

Hamburgers with peanut butter and jalapeno.
Strawberries and black pepper.
Slice the strawberries and dip them in a bit of black pepper.
Not sure if it was a worldwide thing or only in my country, but there used to be a Coke/Coffee blend we had here. It sounds terrible but I absolutely loved it, they stopped carrying it a year or two ago though.
Ketchup-flavored pringles is also apparently not a common thing in other countries, but it is the best flavour.

Toast with peanut butter and sriracha. It's almost like a satay flavour, really good drunk snack!
Similarly, peanut butter & sambal on toast. It's basically savoury & spicy peanut sauce. Absolutely delightful.
Liquorice (or even better, salted liquorice) and coffee.
Sounds alien, I know. You just gotta trust the process though.
Black coffee and diet coke, I used to get it a lot like that hit or miss from McDonald's drive thru before they started selling it in a can.
It was pretty good! I like sweetened coffee but I also am a carbonation fiend so it really scratched both itches at the same time
Non-Sugared Peanut butter on waffles is surprisingly good, it changes it to a savory snack rather than a sweet one.
A shower and an orange. You can just devour that orange like a caveman without worrying about the mess. Shower beer is good too, just because it is nice to have a cold beverage under a hot shower.
Peanut butter on a meat sandwich. Any sandwich. I like roast beef peanut butter combo.
Youβve discovered satay food. Satay chicken is awesome.
Rice and milk. (Sometimes called rice pudding)
Grate a bit of nutmeg in for extra points.
And making it with 6 cups of milk to half a cup of rice and simmering until the liquid is very reduced produces a very intense deliciousness.

Orange slices and salt. π§π
That actually makes sense if you like Phad Thai
I've only ever tried it once, and no drugs were involved but a Irish o garlic bratwurst, and a Hershey chocolate bar. Sooo good.v
Strawberry jelly on tortilla chips! The contrast of salty and sweet create a wonderful blend of flavors in your mouth.
Peanut butter and jelly sandwich with cheetos OR cheddar ruffles.
Reminds me of the story of 'Fool's Gold Loaf'
"It consists of a single warmed, hollowed-out loaf of bread filled with the contents of one jar of creamy peanut butter, one jar of grape jelly, and 1 pound (450 g) of bacon."

As strange as this combination sounds ... I will attempt it one day
