Depends on the culture and time if you ask me.

Just this year, Oreos made a Sour Patch Kids Oreo. It was terrible, but don't pretend like there aren't people out in the world committing food crimes. Taco Bell is committed to lowering the bar on what humans are willing to eat, don't disservice their hustle.

A lot if what we as a society have settled on is also because of economy at scale logic. There are many things that are delicious but won't keep well outside of a small window in specific conditions. Or have less yeild than common alternatives. And sadly many clients simply don't want to try new things.

I suggest for anyone that can, try your hand at fermentation, especially if you have room for a garden. There is so much you can do from making your own koji to lacto-fermenting Nasturtium berries. There are many new flavours for you to discover and share with friends.

Another idea is to learn more about local foraging and seeking out local Mycological societies to learn about mushrooms in your area.

I tried a new food combo as a kid. I liked Nutella, and I liked tangerine slices in syrup. So I combined them.

Mom made me eat it.

It didn't taste like a chocolate orange?

If you wanna go back to tuna mayo and olives gelatin aspics from the 60's go right ahead.

And I bet that was not the worst 'food' of this era.

i don't know who hurt that person, but I feel like food innovation is at an all-time high. Constantly I see new stuff being experimented on and new combinations of food items. plant-based/vegan popularity has really elevated those food innovations as well, with ever more plants being used to make new foods. Just yesterday I made myself a vegan omelet with vegan cheese. And it was amazing.
