A culinary puzzle: Incompatible Food Triads. (It's sort of a subjective problem, but I trust MeCha will have good ideas.)
I'm borrowing heavily from one of the site's examples, but:
chocolate
peanut butter
chicken

Of course, I've never tried mole satay, it might be good. But it doesn't seem like it.

I doubt that one will fly, ferociouskitty. Rick Bayless picks mole de cacahuate as one of the best. "It's thickened with a good amount of peanuts...". Most moles are thickened with nuts or corn.

Having said that, the kind of chocolate used in moles tends to be bitter and high in cocoa solids. Milk chocolate is good with peanut butter. Peanut butter is good with chicken. But try putting, say, a bar of Milka Chocolate Alpine Milk in your chicken satay and we might have a winner.

Great puzzle, Wolfdog, and I like the idea that it might have been Sellars who dreamt it up.

I've been thinking about this for weeks, and am still stuck with mole variations.
