Culinary Eccentricities

 

Every individual that ever decides to set foot inside the kitchen has, at least once, concocted a spectacularly disgusting dish. It’s that thing that tastes like absolute death in food form. You promise yourself you will never attempt something so atrocious again.

 

I’ve personally made the same promise multiple times but I can’t seem to get enough of the abhorrence. Here are three food combinations that were so horrible that they deserve to be immortalized in this post.

 

  1. ramen + blueberry jam

It was not my original intention to eat instant ramen with blueberry jam. It was more of an accident. I had the aftertaste of jam on my palate when I chose to boil an instant ramen, and I sincerely regret the decision.

 

  1. dried squid tentacles + whipped cream

 The tentacles are actually a commonly enjoyed afternoon/evening snack in Korean households. Slathering it with whipped cream, on the other hand, was nasty. I can still taste the artificial sweetness mixed with the salty squid.

 

  1. ramen + cacao

Chocolate and ramen are not meant to be eaten together. This is a universal truth and requires no further explanation.

I encourage you to experiment! Some combinations may certainly turn out to be a delicious play on the incorporated foods, but the three sets listed above should be avoided at all costs. Unless, of course, you want to feel like your taste buds will never work again…
