Odd Combinations

No. I am not talking about Sonny and Cher. I am talking about food. Obviously.

Last year my roommate and I had a discussion on odd food combinations that ended up being quite good. Here are some of the particulars on our list:

Tomatoes and Cottage Cheese
Pickle and Cheese Sandwiches
Grilled Cheese dipped in Chocolate Milk
Tomato Soup with Popcorn
Hot Dogs in a Twinkie (as the bun)
Chocolate covered Bacon
Tuna and Corn (?)

(Actually, tuna and corn shouldn't have made the "quite good" section of the list.) I haven't tried everything on the list, but I am willing to do so.

I did come up with something rather tasty this last week. I cooked cheese raviolis and slapped a bottle of cheap-o spaghetti sauce on top and then added pineapple chunks. So Ravioli with tomato sauce and pineapple can be added to the list. This may sound gross to you until you realize that it is actually a deconstructed Hawaiian pizza:
Dough/crust=Pasta
Cheese=filling
Sauce=sauce
Hawaiian Pizza toppings=pineapple

It was dern tasty and I would eat it again!

I will update the list in a few weeks after I have been to the San Diego County Fair! Always a place I turn to for food ingenuity and clogged arteries!

Devil Mobile

Today on the way to work I was riding next to a cute little turquoise mini cooper. Then I saw the driver: kind of sketchy looking, but I am not one to judge. Then I saw the license plate: XSATANX.

Whaaat?

Of all the cars out there, Satan drives a mini coop!?!

...Then again, isn't it obvious? Coop Devil.

(pa-dum-ching!)
