Fries and Wendy's Frosty.

salty and sweet is never a bad combo

vanilla ice cream and orange sherbert (sorbet) are really good together.
-
Bread and tomatoes with a soupçon (or a few soupçons) of olive oil.
-
cheese and onion :) :)

Rum and Coke.

Yummmm.... Even better if it's red onion.
Rum and Coke.
It's Fernet and Coke for me.
How about chocolate and rum?

Rum and air. ;D

Booze and ice (sometimes ice).

White wine with Frozen grapes in. :)

That's a great idea! I've had to put ice cubes in white wine to get it cold quickly but it always seemed so philistinic.
Your system has class.

Ice really does feel like I'm doing something stupid, like I really should be past it.
And yet, empty ice cube trays when I want a cold beer!
So I go to the shroud method.
For those unfamiliar, you combine a wet paper towel, around a cold beer/soda if you're mixing a cocktail.
Crack the can for pressure reasons, and so the cocksucker doesn't freeze over, and then give it 20 - 40 minutes.
It will be stone cold when you return.
I've been eating pepper turkey straight out of the package. I'd bought chicken previously, due to the price, but my drunken consumption of pepper turkey is cost effective.
But I'll add one for the sorry set. When I mix ramen, I drain the water after following the instructions on the packet.
So it's damp noodles, then I mix in the seasoning packet and beat the hell out of the concoction (I used to mix yakisoba when I had money) Then I drop a tablespoon of sour cream to make a light soup of the abomination.
Quite the ticket for the hangover. Maybe toss some toast with garlic salt and butter on the menu. A way to avoid hell.
Still not good enough. If a man has managed to escape the hangover reaper, I will declare him a sage.
Best I've managed is read something boring until the spins fade, and then eat fatty food.
and I'm out of bacon. Pity me.

Chili and a grilled cheese sandwich.

Chili and air

Having emigrated to Canada in 1958 (from Germany) as a wee lad and been exposed to British education and cultural morays, I've always been partial to vinegar on my chips (i.e. French Fries). Lacking vinegar, I'll settle for mustard and watch the American's eyes roll in restaurants as I applied said to the fries.
*Mommy, is that man a Martian?

My Polish friends are confused to the point of being angry about we Brits putting vinegar on our chips. They say this while serving 90% of their side dishes with finely chopped egg - and some of those egg dishes contain vinegar, no less.
-
You should just stick to Poutine: one of life's great delicacies.
I worry what they poutine it.

That was LOL-worthy.

Poutine is so popular here Burger King and McDonalds now sell it......did i mention the heart attack and obesity rates here? ;D
two food comments to note, both rough camping many, many years ago: first one, we took enough beer to sink a ship, but all we took for food for 3 days was peanut butter, cheez whiz, and bread....i'd never had peanut butter and cheez whiz (mixed together) sandwiches before, or since.
another time, rough camping at the same beach, a buddy was making a beer run, friend and i asked him to grab us a steak each at the local town store (this time we had a portable bbq), while bbqing the steaks, we realized we had no salt, and being salt-aholics, how could we eat steak with no salt? we kept drizzling sea water on them as they cooked ;D

I'm definitely with your Polish friends! I find mayo or ketchup with chips/fries disgusting too. I guess people do anything to make fast-food (frozen) fries more palatable. :D

LOL. Did they turn out good?

Bear in mind that British chips are not french fries. They are big, chunky things that require a little help to get down. Vinegar serves the purpose well, in fact, far better than ketchup or mayo.

Right! Here, both home made and restaurant chips look like British chips too. I imagine fast-food chain restaurant fries look and taste the same everywhere.
-

actually, yes, but keep in mind we were on day two of a three day drunken camping bender ;D

This is the standard and we also have a choice of onion vinegar for those with a more sophisticated palate:
