If you’re at your wits’ end and ready to give up on food period, hold it right there. NYLON Manila Picks is here to give you some weird food combos to try before you call it quits. Read on!
Shin Ramyun with Milk and Cheese
“If you are a sensitive stomach girly like me and can’t have a lot of spicy food, but love ramen that kicks, then I recommend adding cheese and milk to it! It lessens that spiciness of the ramen and adds more flavor to it too.” – Kyla Amadora, Art Intern
Cheese Crackers and Choco Mallows
“Salty sweet is a universal killer combo, and this pairing is a perfect example of it. Chocolate-covered marshmallows are generally too sickly sweet. But balancing that with the salty goodness of processed cheese results in an addictive snack.” – Maggie Batacan, EIC
Lemonade with a Dash of Ketchup
“Call me crazy but it actually gives. It’s a combo that I discovered by accident that surprisingly works well together. The tanginess of the lemonade is still there while the ketchup just gives an umph.” – Rafael Bautista, Managing Editor
Banana with Corned Beef
“I think banana goes well with most beef dishes (even corned beef) especially the 4 caldereta dishes. Have it as dessert if you’re a normal person or as a side dish if you’re feeling particularly adventurous.” – Alannah Mitra, Multimedia Designer
Peanut Butter and Mayonnaise Sandwich
“The sweet and nutty flavor from the peanut butter goes well with the thick and creamy texture of mayo.” – Zean Perello, Video Intern
Tuna and Crushed Biscuits
“I’m not sure if this is new, but this is like a holy grail for a weird food combo on-the-go meal. You can eat it as is, enjoying the combination of the crunchy and soggy texture of the biscuit soaked in tuna oil.” – Zean Perello, Video Intern
Hot Cheetos and Mac & Cheese
“My favorite midnight snack — the hot cheetos’ spice & crunch cuts through the rich & creamy mac & cheese and is perfect if you want to indulge in junk food after a long day.” – Sophia Samala, Ad & Promo Supervisor
