50 Weird Food Combinations Which Sound Gross But Taste Amazing

START SLIDESHOW

Food can be very cultural and geographic. If you lived in the jungle, guess what? You're going to eat bugs. If you live in Los Angeles, you're going to eat tacos. That's just how it is. Either food would be weird to the other person, but they're both fine. Not that you'll see me eating bugs any time soon.

Then there are some combinations of food that everyone would turn their heads at. You look at them and think, "how is this person eating that?" Those are the types of foods we're talking about, however, these actually taste really good. You'll just have to trust these people on the internet about that, and when has that ever gone wrong?

Living life is about taking risks, especially when eating. If you'd like to live boldly and go where no tongue has gone before, then give some of these recipes a try and tell us your favorite in the comments. #44 will gross you out, but a ton of people actually eat it!

Did You Know...

Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.

Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.

Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.

IV

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite? Check out her recipe for whole wheat pasta with a sweet fennel sauce.
