When it comes to coming up with food combinations, Twitter has a PhD in it. Just to refresh your memory, all the bizarre food combinations like eating ‘Kaju Katli with ketchup’, ‘dipping Idli in chai’ and ‘hogging Nutella with egg’ are the wonders of social media. These experimental food combinations were shoved down our throat without anyone asking. Just think what will happen if someone actually asked people online for their suggestions!
Twitter user Ali Qasim recently posted a picture of plain rice in a bowl and asked people to name only two things or the sides of their choice they would pair with it, reported Hindustan Times.
You can only add 2 things to this plate of simple rice

While some of the suggestions did make my stomach growl, I wonder how people are relishing on coffee and mayonnaise with rice. God bless their soul!
