Or a COVID test if you've still got one knocking about

No one with taste buds over the age of 8 does this

My mom used to make a fruit salad with apples, oranges, grapes, and mayo. I hated mayo and fruits for a long time as a kid until I learned they taste much better seperate.

To be faaaaair... Waldorf Salad is a thing.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 hours ago

It shouldn't be, though.

Yeah, for old people whose olfactory senses have gone

Honestly even with half of the flavours there that justify that (the walnuts go a long way towards justifying the fruit and mayo combo): the preparation is very important here

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Needs brown sugar with the walnuts.

or chicken salad with grapes. sounds awful to me but apparently there's a lot of people who like it

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 10 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

surprisingly good, but the grapes have to be cut up. Eating a mouthful of chicken salad only to have something squishy suddenly burst in your mouth is not a pleasant experience.

It's not amazing, but it cuts the richness of the otherwise salt and fat heavy dish (especially in the Midwest where it's like equal parts mayo and chicken)

I mean... If I had those three ingredients in the fridge about to go bad, I might give it a try.

Well, I'd probably fry the bread with the mayo and eat the grapes on the side. But point is, I'll eat weird things to avoid throwing out food.

right, like I love mayonnaise, but this ain't pickles and peanut butter. this is wrong, not right.
