8 Weird Food Combinations (That Actually Taste Awesome)

2. Bacon And Peanut Butter

If in doubt; peanut butter. The darling golden nectar that could have only been created at the hands of a Supreme Being. And what makes peanut butter even better? Bacon. Sweet, crispy bacon and smooth peanut goodness on one plate, and you have a dish so fine God himself couldn't resist. It doesn't just go with bacon though, the possibilities are endless: you can mix it with pumpkin to make a hearty autumnal soup or dip chunks of apple in it for a healthy treat. Or you could just eat it direct from the tub for that instant buttergasm hit.

1. Beef And Chocolate

Completely zany, huh? But it works, and as been done for centuries in Mexico, where they mix most meats with chocolate to produce their traditional casserole dish - 'Mole'. The chocolate thickens the beefy juices resulting in a sauce that is intensely dark and velvety smooth. As if these two flavours weren't crazy enough for your tastebuds, they even throw chilli and garlic into the mix. Not sure if it's quite as tasty when you melt chunks of Dairy Milk into your Quarter Pounder, but it's surely worth a go? As said by the weird and wonderful chef Heston Blumenthal: "There is a whole new world of flavour combinations out there."
