I'm barrel.

And once again, I'm a guest on Buzzfeed's channel.

Hello.

The theme today is unique food combinations.

This is something that I have actually done over on my channel twice before.

Okay, Now, hold on.

I'm injurious.

I'm actually pretty into this.

I ask people in my community what are the unique combinations that actually really work together, and I will try them.

To be honest, I am somebody who has a very forgiving palette.

Hmm.

I like Ooh, that's good.

This is incredible.

Oh, my God.

I pretty much like everything.

Maybe to a fault.

Today I have two people from my community who are sharing their unique combinations.

Hi, My name is Sam.

Hi.

My name is Lily.

One is from the UK and another is from the USA.

So let's try them.

Oh, mhm.

Either My name's Sam and I come from Market England on the combo that I want to share with you today is golden syrup on cheddar cheese sandwiches.

This combo comes from my childhood.

I was about 11.

My dad's a bit of a practical joker.

He came out with these cheese sandwiches and he said, Oh, Sam, Sam, a day you to try this.

I dare you to try this.

He'd always do this kind of stuff with weird types of food.

But for some reason this time it really worked.

It was really good.

When I tell people about this, they are very weirded out.

Because here in the UK, the golden syrup that you use is used mostly for either porridge or for desserts.

But you know, I have a motto.

You're weird.

If someone else is normal e think like mixing things together constantly.

Always comes out with the best combos.

I think it works really well on.

You'll never know unless you try it.

Okay, this first one is the golden syrup and cheddar cheese combo.

To be honest, I've never had golden syrup before.

Hmm.

Hmm.

No, no, no.

Hm.

I went through a lot of emotions.

Their e will just say this off the bat cheese and deserts is something that I do have a little bit of experience with, and I know that it works.

So the idea of pairing cheese and this golden syrup for me, I was like, I know where we're going.

Somebody submitted this to me originally from the Philippines, where it waas, condensed milk and cheese on toast.

And since then I've had it honestly, numerous times.

Savory and sweet is a really, really good combo, and the fat from cheese just pairs really well with sugary things.

Good New York City.

Hmm.

Yes, it's good.

Mhm.

Mhm.

Hi, my name is Lily.

I live in Austin, Texas, and I am going to talk to you all about my grandma's recipe for apple and White Cheddar pie.

Baking on the holidays is something that I always really liked to do with my family, especially my grandma.

This is a recipe that I learned from her way back in the day when I was a kid.

We did, Ah, lot of experimenting with baking and trying weird combos.

And whenever I make this recipe, it just really makes me think of spending holidays with her.

It's kind of bittersweet.

Thio think about because, you know, we haven't been able to spend holidays together this year.

At first, a lot of people might think that it doesn't make a lot of sense, is a combination, but honestly, it really does.

I mean, you've got crust, so you've got a bread.

You've got cheese, you've got fruit.

It's basically a sweet charcuterie board.

Once you eat it, it's not even really a thought of Does this work?

It's more just This is a really good pie.

I think that everyone should try this recipe.

The addition of Cheese is such a good way to make something as classic as an apple pie.

Just go up a level.

It's really good, and it makes me think of my family.

Okay, Apple and Cheddar pie and honestly, like it does make sense.

I feel like I didn't mean to make this like cheese episode, but that's kind of what it iss Oh my God, Lily's right.

This takes apple pie and just, like, elevates it so, Interestingly enough, Ah, lot of people responded with this comment on Di did a little bit of research, and I have definitely seen iterations of this around.

Paul Hollywood from Great British Bake off even talked about it.

There's a saying in Yorkshire that apple pie without cheese, it's like a kiss without a squeeze E what?

Okay.

Oh, Paul, you haven't had apple pie, though, and I don't even know how long I was actually pretty surprised that I made this myself.

Ah, part of me was like, I'm just gonna buy apple pie slops, um, cheese on top.

Bob's your uncle, but I want the extra mile.

You know, it was worth it.

I think my main take away from this episode and also having done this before and learning through it is that food is meant to be experimented with and all of these rules that we have about what does and doesn't go together.

It's kind of silly, and we should try things and, you know, maybe they'll work and maybe they won't work either way.

That's OK, but experimentation is part of the fun.

Maybe we'll give these a try and you'll like them.

Maybe not.

Either way, I hope that you guys like the video and I will see well later.
