    Me:

    Friend: Try bacon on jam on toast

    Me: That sound awful

    Friend: it's delicious

    Me: ok I try

    Me tries

    Friend: Was it any good?

    Me: it was... ok

    Friend: too bad I imagined it would be great

    Me: what you never tasted?

    Ex-friend: no

    A former coworker on night shift was a former manager at MacDonald's, she claimed that putting the grape jelly on a sausage biscuit was amazing.

    I stop by McDonald's on my way home and try it. Once I finished the sausage biscuit with grape jelly I conclude that she was high when she came up with that because it was awful.

    The following night she asks if I tried it and I tell her I did and thought it was awful, she replied "eh, I guess you've got to be stoned to enjoy it".

    I occasionally add strawberry or grape jelly to a sausage egg mcmuffin and and I think it works really well.

    Strawberry preserves spread on a grilled cheese sandwich is great.

    Note: choose either a pickle or strawberry jam; never both.

    We have some peaches and I've been putting them in some grilled cheeses I've been making with maple-leaf–smoked Gouda I also got this week and it's been pretty incredible.

    Ernie is committing a mercy killing. The hate crime is mustard on watermelon.

    If you see a news article saying "X Sensational Thing has become a trend", odds are is a gross exaggeration to the point of complete fabrication, and you fell for it.

    Officer, how can it be a hate crime if I loved doing it?

    But seriously, melon mixed with feta, mint leaves and seasoned with chili is really nice.

    I could believe it’s not horrible flavor-wise, but the very act in and of itself is irreparably sinful

    I'll put chili lime seasoning on fruit sometimes.

    I feel like anyone who considers that normal should be open to mustard on watermelon

    It seems slightly logical if you think about it hard enough. I've had salt on watermelon before, and I've heard of people pickling watermelon but I haven't had it myself.

    Salt & vinegar are common mustard ingredients, so, maybe? But it still seems gross on my initial assessment without tasting it.

    EVERYONE CALM DOWN.

    Thats not a hate crime, just regular crime. Totally fine.

    That looks like an article - did 9gag morph from a cesspool into a curated cesspool like buzzfeed?

    I think you could make a sour sauce that would be good with watermelon. Maybe something similar to lemon curd.

    Sriracha isn't exactly sour but it pairs really well with other sweet stuff.

    One of my favourite snacks is some sour jam (lemon, berries, rhubarb, etc) with a healthy dollop of sriracha on bread.

    The mix between fruits and garlic kinda feel like Durian if it had no smell.

    "9gag" in this case means having exactly nine gag reflexes after eating it.

    I actually think this might work with some kinds of mustard. But definitely not with 'Murican mustard, as that's vile no matter what.

    I agree, putting salt on watermelon is a big thing in the south. I think using a flavorful mustard wouldn’t be much different than using a salad dressing.

    I don't care about the mustard. The way he's holding your melon makes me want to end him.

    Lol, dude’s trying not to vomit.

    (Only a trend like the cinnamon challenge, something awful with the taste of regret)
