    Abysmal take. Chocolate ice cream with frozen peanut butter swirled in is proof that god loves us.

      Ham and pineapple complement one another with saltiness and sweetness. One amplifies the flavor of the other.

      If you put canadian bacon next to the pineapple, its delicious. Also, really important to have pineapple that’s not super fibrious in a mixed dish.

    I laugh my ass off when every few years someone combines peanuts and jelly on the Great British Bake-off and literally every single time all the other British people are like “wow, you have invented literally a brand new innovative and delicious cuisine”.

      There was an episode I remember where they explored Mexican cuisine and a contestant said ‘Gacky-molo’ for ‘Guacamole’ and that has stuck with me since.

    When I was a kid, my family went to go visit some extended family in rural southern France. It was going to be over Halloween, and since the French don’t celebrate it, we brought some American Halloween candy for them to try. To our surprise, they loved it, especially the Reese’s cups. We had expected them to find it gross, since they had much higher quality chocolate in Europe.

      A bar of Hershey’s, you can really taste the butyric acid that forms during their unique process. In a Reece’s cup, the high sugar content of the filling (it’s not really even peanut butter) overpowers it. I actually like Reece’s but Hershey’s is a last resort chocolate.

    Ok, there’s lots of stuff I don’t like. Why not grab a Snickers?

    Whoa there, it’s just a Reese’s cup…

    Woah Woah Woah. I’m Canadian and peanut butter and chocolate is also a thing here. Peanut butter may be my favourite thing. Why am I catching strays?

      Canada is part of America, just not the USA.

      Peanuts and Cocoa are distinctly (South) American, if you can distance applying the term American just to the USA.

          I get that the connotation is Americans are people from the USA but it does erase some of the identity of the rest of the Americas.

          All I was saying was it’s not surprising that the person from the Americas enjoys a combination of flavors distinctly from the Americas.

          Peanuts and Cocoa are distinctly American, South American to be precise.

    Peanut butter is an abomination and against the scriptures and an insult to God. Change my atheist mind.

    The same idiots that say this are the ones who think Nutella is some transcendental ambrosia even though it’s more palm oil than either hazelnuts or cocoa.

      Thank you. People love it or hate it but don’t seem to understand it’s just bland palm oil. I want to like it. I’m their core demographic in many ways but there’s not enough flavor to like or dislike, and why would I eat palm oil?
