Best Combination Ever: Sweet & Salty
One of our lovely readers suggested I make a post about the wonderful combination of sweet and salty. So here I am. Let me just say I have a serious weakness for this combination. I don't know what it is that makes me crave sweet and salty combination's, but I'm not gonna fight it!
Here are some of my favorite sweet and salty combos:
Chocolate Covered Pretzels: Now, these are my all-time weakness. If you put a bag or a tin or a jar of these treats in front of me, I guarantee they will be gone in less than 15 minutes. Chocolate covered pretzels are a classic treat in my book, and they just speak for themselves.
Potato Chips & Chocolate: Everyone thinks I'm crazy for this combo, but if you've ever tried it then you know what I'm talking about. Take a bite of chocolate and pop a few chips in your mouth and you'll experience something amazing. One day I'm going to make chocolate covered potato chips (nom nom).
French Fries & Chocolate Milkshakes: Yeah, I'm one of those people who dips my fries in milkshakes. Why? Because it's so good. Not only the combo of sweet and salty, but the fries are hot and the shake is cold and it just tastes delicious. You should try it.
Chocolate Covered Peanuts: I love these because they are just so yummy. I also love chocolate covered almonds, but the almonds aren't as salty-tasting as the peanuts. Pretty much anything chocolate covered I like.
Do you like the combo of sweet and salty? What are some of your favorites?

I LOVE sweet and salty combos. Chocolate covered pretzels, which you already listed, are one of my all time favorite snacks. Kettle corn is another favorite sweet and salty snack of mine.

I'm a fan of dumping a bag of M&Ms in popcorn for a sweet and salty combo. Or really any kind of chocolate and popcorn.

I usually go for either sweet or salty, but I do like an occasional chocolate covered pretzel or kettle corn.

OMG YES THIS POST!!!!
You are welcome.
Just before I clicked on this post my mind was battling over whether or not I should eat the dark chocolate covered pretzels (which are a Godsend) hiding in my pantry...
...this post pushed me over the edge!
I relatively recently got into this whole sweet and salty combo...but I am head over heels for it! ANYTHING that involves salted caramel is something I MUST have!
