Food combinations that are pretty good

Hmmm, someone likes mustard ...

I used to only eat oatmeal sweet, but I tried it once with soy sauce, garlic and onion powder, sesame seeds, nuts and/or pumpkin seeds and it's actually pretty good. I still prefer oatmeal sweet because that's what I'm used to but now I have it with soy sauce twice a week or so to mix thing up.
mango and chips with some sauce (for the chips not the mango).
BUT THE ICONIC ONE:
SALT AND STRAWBERRIES

If you want to have fun you need to understand the chemistry behind it.

I learned a way of approaching cooking from François Chartier's tool for creating perfect harmonies between wines and dishes through the aromatic science of molecular harmonies.

What works for pairing food and wine also works for pairing ingredients.
