Woman: You're putting creamed corn on angel food cake??? You're sick. Man: Yep. Two of my favorite foods together in one creamy, corny, spongy, mushy plate. Woman: Now I'm sick.
It’s hard not to outwardly react to another’s choice of food and condiments but my aunt taught me something with a conversation she had with my dad years ago. He was appalled at her option of condiment (can’t remember what) and he made a big deal of it by saying, “Yuck!! That’s gross!”
My aunt looked at him and said, “Who is eating this…you or me?”
That said everything you can say about another person’s taste in food. Unless they’re serving it to YOU then really, nothing should be said.
Though, I do rib my husband about some of the things he likes to eat like mayo on crackers….yuck!!!
One of my relatives used to dump sugar in canned cream of corn soup and then burble on and on about how “It tastes just like fresh corn from the garden!” Um, no, it tastes just like canned cream of corn soup with sugar in it…
Mine’s dosing things (properly) with Hot Sauce of the Texas Pete style. Louisiana style is like gasoline on a bonfire and one should have learned one’s limits by 80 y/o. I leave the competition to the yearlings that try to out-do who can eat the hottest sauce/tabasco-laden stuff. I do know that when beads of sweat appear, they’ve over-done it and they’ll pay the next day. These days,dads seemingly never teach their sons anything save for the fact that ’they’re the best’ and here’s first prize.
Asian cultures put corn in desserts (as does Mexico in those sweet little corn fritters) and in the Philippines the favorite ice cream flavor is “sweet corn.”
Cream corn on angel food cake might be good – if the corn was warmed up first. And the peanut butter and onions grossvater mentioned sound good – just might try that.

Now that’s just sacrilege. Looks like the devil made him do it.

If he ate them separately, they would all end up in the same place. My point ……. what difference does it make?
