A few months ago, around the middle of May, I was on my way to the bus stop after school. I needed to buy some supplies for baking, since I work in a kiosk whenever the local soccer team is playing, so I walked through the local mall. I went past a candy store where I sometimes buy chocolate, and I noticed some unusual ice cream flavors.
One of them was popcorn. The other was Red Bull.
My curiosity piqued, I decided to buy a cone of Red Bull and popcorn ice cream. I paid, sat down and tasted.
My verdict on the popcorn? Don't.
Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't.
It tasted like wet cardboard. The caramel around them and the vanilla ice cream couldn't save it. It was fucking awful.
The verdict on the Red Bull? Weird.
The texture was like a mix of ice cream and sorbet. Nothing to really comment on taste-wise: It was Red Bull with vanilla.
So, with this experience in mind, tell me: Which are some of the foulest food combinations you've tried? Alternately, tell me about some of your failed food experiments.
I remember when I was younger and tried to make a rice omelet. I figured that since omelet rice was fried rice wrapped in an egg sheet, rice omelet must be an omelet with rice mixed into it. It never occured to me that they were just two different names for the same food.
I fried some mince meat and boiled some rice. Then, I mixed it with some beaten egg. What I didn't count on was that the rice would soak up all that egg and turn into a giant mass of what looked like cat vomit. I tried frying it. It didn't improve anything. I tried eating it. It was disgusting. My lunch was ruined, but it didn't matter since I wasn't hungry anymore.
So, tell me your stories!
(Ice cream epilouge: Since my body can't really handle energy drinks, since I rarely drink them, my stomach hated me for the rest of the afternoon.)
