Texture of banana but with a huge seed. Tastes like a strange combination of rotten eggs, whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, diced garlic, onions, cheese, and... caramel?
Broom flavored soda. Buddy of mine made homemade sodas and did fun experiments and one went wrong so he called it broom soda because that's exactly how it tasted. He added to much sugar somewhere and it partial melted and had this weird texture that mimicked sand. It's such a weird drink to describe.
4/10 fun to laugh about but not to try more than a swig.
I saw a recipe on.Bon Appetit for an orange juice and coffee drink, my initial impression was "no way" but I modified it a little and really liked it.
Cold brew, fresh squeezed orange juice, and Topo Chico fizzy water, poured over ice.
I also like the salad that is fennel, oranges and olives and onions, and also the Mexican fruit salad that's pineapple, mango, jicama, onion, with citrus juice dressing and cotija sharp crumbled cheese.
I think that's it for combinations that sound awful to me but taste good to me.
some bizarre fermented raw pork sausage. The taste was mild but the texture was like someone ran a tire through a cheese grater and then compressed the identical shaped tire shreds into a skinny sausage.
when you bit it all these rubbery bits just sort of wriggle away from each other in your mouth . Difficult to explain. The first one was hard to get down but i did eat a second one a few weeks later
If you want to try a very divisive cocktail, you need to go no further than the classic Negroni. I absolutely love them, but they are not for everyone. Extremely bitter and astringent - you certainly don't gulp this one down. To me, it's the most "adult" of adult alcoholic beverages. You either love or or despise it.
I used to work in a bar. Somebody ordered a Malibu (coconut liqueur) with tonic water. I tasted some out of curiosity. It was weird, but not in a good way.
I love coffee, so I had high hopes for this being really good. It tasted like someone mixed sugar, red wine, and coffee. Horrible. Tangy. Oddly sweet. Just weird. I can't imagine a boardroom of people at Dunkin tasted this crap and said "ship it!"
A lot of the recent Coca-Cola flavors like the space one have been weird as fuck and sit in a vague middle point between "okay" and "absolutely disgusting." And I mean that in a way that has you questioning whether it's alright or gross.
I've had a few of the Jones Soda holiday packs, where they would make the tastes of various winter holidays into sodas. Cranberry sauce soda was ok. Turkey soda, not so much. However, the worst was Christmas Garland, which tasted like Pine-sol.
This might not seem weird to many buy as a north american I had never encountered anything like it.
Shiso spice on rice.
It was a completely foreign flavor to me; like nothing I'd ever tasted before. Not a single thing in the north american diet is remotely close to what it tastes like. I saw there awestruck for a moment.
A few years ago Brachs candy I think it was made Thanksgiving dinner flavored Candy Corn. They had turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, greenbean, apple pie, and gravy candy corns mixed in a bag. The cranberry apple pie were great but the stuffing tasted like vomit. Everything else was just meh. I never bought a bag again.
Marshmallow and chips. Dry they were okay, I could separate the flavours, but with gravy added the flavour of the marshmallows mixed in with the gravy and chips and the whole lot tasted horrible.
I used to work at Starbucks and we'd make weird shit out of curiosity. The best one was uncut cold brew coffee and their strawberry refresher base. Uncut cold brew and lemonade wasn't terrible but way too acidic for my liking.
Thing with the weirdest flavor, or flavor of the weirdest thing?
Thing with the weirdest flavor: Durian. Fucking gross. Ate it by accident (was in a dish I ordered). It tasted exactly like papaya or mango soaked in mop bucket water for 2 days.
Flavor of the weirdest thing: Probably Escargot. That was garlic and snail flavored.
Not so weird to me or most Cubans, but prolly to the rest of the world: malta with a spoonful or two of sweetened and condensed milk. Pour the malta into a glass, then add the milk and stir until evenly mixed. Drink. If you're not used to the flavor of malta, this combo may be too much to start off with.
I once had a burger stuffed with crushed Oreos and topped with frosting. That specific combo wasn't exactly good, though I did finish it. The sweetness kinda worked, but it was way too much.
Ever since then though I've been meaning to make something more toned-down, maybe a burger with a honey glaze or something cause I think that'd turn out really good.
During Christmas, our student union used to sell a drink called Julmust. I bought one or of curiosity and thought the first sip was horrible, but by the end of the bottle I was hooked. Was very sad when they stopped selling it
Oyster flavored ice cream. First surprise was that it actually tasted like oysters, second was that it was actually good as a ice cream. I wouldn't mix it with more "normal" flavors though
Prepare to get crazy mad, but I absolutely despise marshmallows.
They feel so weird especially in my mouth. I feel like I'm eating a bunch of candle wax mixed with white sticky liquid (can't say anymore hints) mixed with whipped cream and powdered sugar and glue and coconut (which I already don't like) and expired milk but without the sourness, all this while it's in the process of solidification, with lots of air trapped inside, and yet it all tastes like the most artificial, fakest recreation of apple flavor I've ever tasted. I feel like I immediately get drunk, high, and on drugs all at the same time as soon as I put just one of these puffcylinders into my mouth. I can't even swallow it, it tastes this bad.
And you're expecting me to burn this piffy puffle substance then mix it with chocolate and biscuit? This is giving me an absolute stroke.
Prepare the downvotes. I have just roasted (pun not intended) everyone's favorite gelatin snack, and it might as well be the most offensive thing I've said about food.
