Deconstructing odd food combinations

There was a thread not too long ago about weird food combos that we inexplicably like. As I read through it, I was trying to analyze the combos and relate them to something familiar that might explain why the combo works.

So, I challenge you to post your (actual) odd food combos that you just love but that everyone else thinks is insane. Let's see why it works.

I will start, but I have to admit that this combo came from my deliberate effort to take two foods that I have never combined, but that, based on other combos, should work:

Cottage cheese and jellied cranberry sauce

I like cottage cheese and pineapple (or peaches, or really, any canned fruit), and I love cranberry sauce with turkey. But I hardly ever have turkey around, but I wanted to eat some cranberry sauce. So, thus this combination.

It was very good!

Your turn.
