weird food combos

I don't really know why I felt so compelled to write this out, but here goes. Do you have any weird snacks you eat? Or weird combos? For example...and don't say this is yucko...just hear me out. I grew up eating peanut butter and..wait for it....BOLOGNA sandwiches. I really do not like bologna, BUT the only way I can eat it, is with peanut butter. Now there are people who don't even like peanut butter out there, let alone with a sandwich meat...ha. And several people eat bologna and cheese sandwiches, or bologna and mayo sandwiches. Not me. And I like to dip popcorn in yogurt. Strawberry yogurt works well with the buttered microwave popcorn. Not kidding, and when I pop popcorn, my son runs to look for the yogurt, (great, I've created a monster, just as my own mother did with the PB and bologna sandwiches!) But then I like just crackers. I love Wheat Thins, and Ritz crackers. So I CAN be normal okay?! OH but I cannot eat popcicles...cuz I cannot STAND the wooden sticks...gives me the heebie jeebies! So what are some foods you may eat, that when you tell others you may get some weird looks from?

Bologna and peanut butter, eh? That IS a new one! I don't know that I like anything quite that unusual, but I do like eating French fries with honey, which is how my grandmother always served them, or with Ranch dressing. A friend of mine is a big fan of this chocolate bar with bacon in it. She swears it's delicious, but I don't know if I'm adventurous enough to try it, even though it combines two of my favorite foods.

You're welcome. :) I find I get odd looks when I go to a restaurant and ask for fries and honey or fries and ranch dressing, but it really is tasty. I can understand the appeal of a salty sweet combo (like kettle corn, or chocolate covered pretzels) but I don't know...a bacon chocolate bar is a little too extreme for my tastes.
