You’ve got your peanut butter on my chocolate!
I’ve always maintained that there are three ‘cornerstone’ foods. A cornerstone food is something, that when added to another food, improves it. I have successfully identified two of the three cornerstone foods:
- Bacon
- Peanut Butter
- ????
So, what I’m saying is that there aren’t any foods that aren’t improved by the addition of either bacon, peanut butter, or the third food. Unfortunately, I haven’t figured out the third yet. I suspect it’s Golden Raisins, but it doesn’t fit everything – yet. Maybe that means there are four cornerstone foods.
As examples:
- Chocolate = good, chocolate plus peanut butter = better.
- Chicken = good, chicken plus either bacon OR peanut butter (think Thai food) = better
Just to prove my point:

Chili peppers – that’s the 3rd cornerstone. Makes anything taste good!
Not a bad idea.. but there needs to be something that goes with fruit. Neither bacon or peanut butter universally improves a fruit salad. Neither does chili peppers. Hmm..
Yes it does improve fruit! In Mexico and asia, Mango with chili pepper is all the rage!
