Also curious about things that are the other way around where they look really good but taste awful.

Uh, I have a pretty good one that y’all will love :)

Peanut butter and mayonnaise sandwiches. People look at it and are disgusted, but it’s amazing. The tangy mayo goes so well with the sweet pb.

[–] homes@piefed.world 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh, I have to disagree with you there. I was trying to make fluffernutter (peanut butter + fluff) when I was drunk, and accidentally made peanut butter with mayo. It took me half an hour to stop vomiting after a single bite.

Do you think that it didn’t sit right with you because the sandwich is bad or because you were drunk?

[–] homes@piefed.world 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

well, it wasn't a 'sit right' issue, as I hadn't the chance to swallow it. I had barely begun to chew it before it provoked a response.

under normal circumstances with normal drinkers, probably, but I'm what you might call a... veteran drinker. I'm not one to puke unless... "especially provoked". for example, I don't puke from drinking too much (well, not for decades); I'll certainly pass out first, and that's after a couple of liters of whiskey over 3-5 hours-- after which point my tongue is typically pretty numb, so it takes a lot to break through that.

I will say that the level of my drunkenness it probably why I puked as much as did, but I wouldn't have puked in the first place had it not been for the foulness of what I ate.

tl:dr: the answer is that I don't think so, but it's possible

I will say this was long enough ago that, if I were to have a different reaction today, I'd have to replicate the experiment to find out, and I only have 750ml of bourbon to test it. if I remember, I'll wait till I finish and dab a bit of PB+mayo on my finger and taste it to see what happens ;)

Update: sorry, I fell asleep ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[–] dkppunk@piefed.social 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

lol you should try a bit not drunk. Unless you hate mayo, it’s surprisingly delicious

[–] homes@piefed.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Perhaps you’re right. But I’ll never know, because it sounds fucking disgusting and I don’t wanna try it again.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[–] dkppunk@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I’m an adventurous eater, there are very few foods I will not at least try. I believe in trying just about everything because you never know when you will find your new favorite food. But you do you ;)

[–] homes@piefed.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I’m an adventurous eater as well. Thing is: I did try it. It did not agree with me, and I am not particularly disposed to try it again.

[–] zentigger@anarchist.nexus 2 points 2 weeks ago

I’ve been eating peanut butter, mayonnaise, and bologna sandwiches since I was a kid, (though now I use a veganaise that I prefer to mayonnaise). So tasty!

Along the same lines: grilled cheese dipped in maple syrup + hot sauce

[–] zabadoh@ani.social 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Hmm, I've never considered this.

What's the ratio of PB to mayo? One side of a slice each?

[–] dkppunk@piefed.social 1 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Yep. Each on one slice of bread. It’s an old cheap meal from the US depression, my grandma ate it as a kid and she fed it to her kids, and them to my generation of cousins.

As to ratio, about even maybe. If the pb is too dry, maybe a bit more mayo.

[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It’s an old cheap meal from the US depression…

Makes sense. I’d have to be suffering a major economic crisis to even consider an abomination like a peanut butter and mayo sandwich lol

[–] dkppunk@piefed.social 2 points 1 week ago

Like I said, it’s more tasty than you would think, unless you hate mayo or pb already

[–] zabadoh@ani.social 0 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I just tried it, and it is pretty good! Like a richer version of PB&J

[–] dkppunk@piefed.social 2 points 1 week ago

Right? Like it’s not my absolute favorite sandwich, which a blt from my local shop, but it’s a lot better than you would think it should be.

[–] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 0 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I can see it, but I'd think there'd be a better source of acid/sour that isn't as fatty to pair with the PB.

[–] badlotus@discuss.online 2 points 2 weeks ago

Peanut butter and pickle sandwiches are great!

[–] dkppunk@piefed.social 1 points 1 week ago

Folks will hate this, but I actually grew up eating it with Miracle Whip more often than mayo, both are good though. I don’t eat it very frequently because it’s so fatty, but if I need a cheap filling something, I’ll grab that every once in a while.
