Rice and yam is another great combination that isn't popular among my friends. However, trying new food combinations can be interesting.

We get a similar dish sold in the restaurant here. Though, one can ask for not adding either rice or noodle in this dish. Personally, I enjoy this combination. I live in India. :)

I am trying to visualize. I cannot really say how peanut butter and bananas would actually taste like. 8)

I think this combination should taste tangy and spicy. And I don't mind enjoying this kind of flavor. I also live in India. :)

I don't know if it's weird but my comfort food is Wai Wai with poach on top. But it's definitely not as weird as some of the food combos that I'm seeing in the comments

I am going to try this combination for sure. Just wanted to say that I would fry the bread. :)

I have no idea how that combination is doable. It may not be disgusting, but its practicability is the issue.
I am trying to visualize (rice with bread). But I am still wondering about how this combination would taste like.

I had a friend in school who used to combine Maggi with whatever he wanted. He was like a crazy Maggi-eater, you could say!

Yaa! I feel dipping raw carrots in ketchup sounds very weird.

I know several people who enjoy dipping fries in a milkshake so perhaps it's not that uncommon?
Oh! This sounds so weird. I am just visualizing and thinking. 8)

Oh yes! Especially with the extra maggi magic masala!

The only difference is that the frankie usually has schezwan noodles 😁
