    All of these are actually good and mostly rely on combining sweet and savory flavors to different degrees. Three of them are also foods that are associated with being poor and déclassé.

    Personally never really been into ranch on pizza or in general, but I begrudgingly respect that it works.

    The one I’ll really stick up for is apple (or other sweet fruit filling) pie with cheese. It’s really tight to have something like a swiss to cut the sweetness and round out the flavor profile there.

      Preach. I’m weirded out by how judgy people get about food, especially mixing flavor profiles. Pineapple on pizza is another big one.

      Another thing that is really good is chocolate and cheese, especially with a nice fruit. One time I got served a “wedding proposal” which was dark chocolate, apricot, and monchago.

        I love cheese and chocolate. I crave a white cheese like mozzarella or brie whenever I have some dark chocolate.
