Sweet and salty revisited (it's about time!)

Yes, way back in the dark ages (OK, in November), I asked about sweet and salty combinations. You know, like dipping your french fries in a Wendy's vanilla Frostee?

Well, I got a lot of responses, and I never adequately acknowledged them!

So here are some of my favorites:

Adriane: pretzels and chocolate milk
Jo: Jiffy extra crunchy peanut butter on a Ritz with a glass of ice cold chocolate milk
Mark: dropping pretzel bits in a glass of Pepsi (as a side note, one of MY favorites is Utz sour cream and onion chips with a diet Pepsi)
Joe: Nature Valley's sweet and salty nut granola bars. His favorite is cashew; they also have peanut and almond.
Kris: Martin's barbecue waffle-cut chips dipped in vanilla ice cream
Eric: He says his grandpa used to drop a few salted peanuts into his bottle of Pepsi. And in Mexico, salt and lime are common additions to beer or soda pop. (Eric knows beer; check him out here).

He had a NOT tasty sweet-and-salty story to tell. "When we went to Guadalajara a few years ago to visit my wife's relatives, I bought a Squirt citrus soda on the street. The vendor asked, "Con sal?" I said yes. Had to dump the whole thing out. Nasty."

My daughter, by the way, has started with the pretzels-in-ice-cream thing. I'm raising up a little Yorker!!

I'll have to decide what my next food question is going to be. I get such great answers - thank you all!

My name is Joan and I'm a lifelong Yorker. Throughout high school and college, I swore I was getting out of here as soon as possible. Now, a few years later, I can't think of anywhere I'd rather be. I love my town. And, as a local editor, I hear every day how much you love your towns, too. So please, connect with me and let's share what makes life in York County great. I'm here to help you enjoy this place as much as I do!
