When it comes to food, trust people like me who do not have allergies or react to things, we eat as long as it's edible and healthy. There are weird food combinations I have tried and hated and some others I have tried and fallen in love with. At e point in our lives, we all have tried at least one weird food combination.
A few years ago, I got back home from work feeling exhausted and famished. I needed strength to enable me to do anything. I went to the cupboard to check the pots but they were all empty. Usually, what I would have done on a day like that is to drink garri.
Ps to the non-Nigerians: Garri is a dry, crispy, creamy-white granule that is made from cassava roots that have been crushed into a mash, fermented, and sieved into small pieces known as grits. It is finally roasted and fried to get the final result which is the garri. It is said to be used to prepare a swallow food called 'eba'. Eba is prepared with boiled water and garri. The boiled water is poured into a bowl and the garri is poured into the bowl. A partula is needed to mix this till it forms a thick paste then you can swallow it with any soup of your choice. When you're not swallowing, the garri can be poured into a deep plate, you add some water, also groundnut, and sugar if you want, and just start drinking.
On a day like that which I was talking about earlier, what I would have done was to drink garri. Unfortunately, there was none at home. I needed to eat, so what I did was get my hands on something close by that was available in the house at that time. Fufu and groundnut.
Fufu is also made from cassava, it is usually boiled, pounded, and made into balls.
I assumed that after chewing the groundnut and putting the balls of fufu in, the taste of the groundnut would make me enjoy it. However, I was wrong. I've never tried it again ever since then. I should put this in the category of weird food combinations I never liked.
I've tried a few more combinations which I have fallen in love with and I know that you may have tried it too and love it so I won't be surprised if you say that the combination isn't weird.
Fufu and fried fish. It tastes really good. When I tried it, I never expected that it would be so good but it was and I would love to try it again and again.
Beans and eba. Beans are rich in protein, and eba whid is gotten from cassava is rich in carbohydrates.
Spaghetti and Beans. Spaghetti is rich in minerals, vitamins, and fiber while the bean is rich in protein. So why not?
Coconut and bread. I want to know who hasn't tried this combination. It's a health combo too.
- Macaroni the noodles. The first time I prepared macaroni alone, I felt like it needed some to give it some weight when I'm chewing. So the following day I wanted to prepare it, I made sure to buy some noodles and I used the seasonings of the noodles to prepare the meal. It tasted really good. This combination may not be weird after all, something tells me that someone else here also enjoys this combination.
These are some weird food combinations I have heard about and tried. What are the weird food combinations you have tried and loved? Please feel free to share if you don't mind.

I learned a lot of information about safe weight loss in the blog, including the keto method, the so-called low-carb diet, which really suits and works for many, I also found an excellent application in that blog to follow all the rules of this diet.
You experiment and find what you enjoy in combinations. I have not heard of your local Garri or Fufu perhaps different names used in different location.
If you don't try you never know.

Forgive me, because I'm American and so I don't understand, what is "Macaroni the noodles"? In the U.S. macaroni IS a noodle, and "noodle" doesn't imply seasoning. Is it like a packet of ramen noodles that comes with seasoning?
Okay, let me explain what I mean by macaroni.
Our macaroni here comes in different shape and without seasoning while our noodles is packed with its special season.
Here's another description..
One can choose to eat their noodles raw with cooking but the same can't be done with macaroni.🙂
Huh! I have no concept of what this means!
