What is a dish whose component parts you all like individually, but put together as a dish you think is nasty? (lemmy.ml)

Jambalaya. I love all the individual ingredients, but put together as Jambalaya makes me wanna hurl.

I’m down with carbon, oxygen, phosphorous, and all these other nice elements, but you mix them together in just the right way and you get my ex girlfriend.

Not a 'dish' but Espresso Orange Juice is nasty despite loving orange juice and espresso separately

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I thought I would hate that combination too, but diluted and fizzy I really like it. Not espresso, cold brew, fresh OJ, and Topo Chico mixed and poured over ice really tastes good, smoky orange flavor. I did not expect to like it and it didn't work with espresso (I think the ice shocks it) but with cold brew and fizzy/diluted? Yum.

Toothpaste Sandwich

Cheerios and Bugles (each separately). Nothing in either item should make them smell like death. But every flavor of either I've encountered always has. They're not even the same kind of grain.

I'll eat most ingredients in a wide variety of contexts. It's pretty rare that I'll find something that I don't like, and can't eventually find a way to like.

I'm not expecting them to be amazing, but them being substantially worse than bland and boring is still a surprise.
