I put cheese on everything. (Well, not anything sweet cuz that's disgusting. And sacrilege).
Mostly cuz any food that's not sweet (except cheese) is gross so adding cheese makes it less gross.
I found a piece of colby jack in my cardigan pocket today. It was partially dried out.
I thought perhaps I had a problem. Though in fairness, this is the first time this has occurred.
And I didn't eat it, so clearly I'm good.

(Maybe I'm the one with the problem.)
(They're small blocks, not economy size, so again, clearly not a problem)
My whole life is a lie.
Sweet things can't go with savory things. They can occasionally go with other sweet things.
But do not stick sugar or honey or for the love of Pete and all that is holy, marshmallows on sweet potatoes, as sweet potatoes are perfection all on their own.
But here in the northeast, people put cheese on a cracker, and then a dab of fruit jam/preserves on the cheese. Before I moved back here 15 years ago, I would've agreed with you on that being a no-no. But then I finally gave it a try, and.... welp. It's actually pretty tasty.
Also, back in my 20s when my body was completely bulletproof against bad habits, I frequently had a breakfast treat that consisted of cream cheese on a cinnamon raisin bagel that was then dipped, bite by bite, in maple syrup. IYKYK.
Also, it's not for me, but people put sugar in coffee.
(With apologies to Shan. Generally speaking, I'm with you on "don't cross those streams!")
Cream cheese is acceptable to mix with sweet things...mmmmmm puummmpkin rollll! I sooo wish I would've known of this cinnamon raisin bagel cream cheese maple syrup thing back during the consequence free eating days!
