Since some have shared favorite food combinations, here's mine: ice cream cereal milk! That's what I call it. All in one dish. DEEEELISH I tell you! It makes sense to me. Ice cream and milk make a milkshake. Mose everyone eats cereal and milk. Sprinkle cereal on ice cream and you get a nice crunch for texture. Put all three in a bowl IN THAT ORDER, and voila! You have a wonderful combination! You can play with which ice cream you lke with which cereal. I prefer complimentary flavors. Grape Nuts goes well with Bryers vanilla (or any flavor really, since it is more of a crunch than an abundance of flavor) for a "beginner."

He dared me to try his Coke'N'Peantus a few months ago and YIKES!! It honestly tasted like sweaty Coke. Disgusting.<br /><br />It may be a "Southern Thing," but I am from Texas, and apparently... not THAT Southern!<br /><br />God bless and thanks for the encouragement today! <br />Adrienne (Just found your blog today– I think I read almost every post. :)

It may be a “Southern Thing,” but I am from Texas, and apparently… not THAT Southern!

I just happened upon your blog... this post is so funny. A couple summers ago my best friend and I went on a little road trip. We rented The Secret Life of Bees audio book. And peanuts in Coke is the characters' favorite snack! My friend and I decided to try it at the next pit stop. :) Interesting... kinda yummy... but not an every day thing. Hahaha.

Back in college I worked for a bank and one of the loan officers bought huge boxes of peanuts for a fundraiser. They also kept bottled cokes for us. We all mixed peanuts with coke. We also all swole up like toad frogs but hey. It's yummy. I haven’t done it for years but it is heavenly.
