Olive Oil And Ice cream
Sceptics, read on. Now here's the scoop (no pun intended) on the mysterious olive ice cream. Would it taste oily? Or refreshing possibly? Well the answer is no!

Bacon and… bananas? Tantalise your taste buds with these eccentric yet scrumptious food combinations!

Peanut butter and jelly, mac and cheese, bacon and eggs: some foods are just meant to be together. However, these classic and timeless food combinations haven’t always been in existence. Back in the day, combining peanut butter and a fruit-based spread would’ve been unheard of, perhaps blasphemous even. Only through experimentation and trial and error did these unusual pairings become a norm in modern households.

If you’re looking for something fresh and eclectic that make for a welcome change from the usual flavour combinations, we feel you! Check out the gallery for 8 unusual food pairings that taste amazing!
