Nice idea from my brain, some minutes ago!:
Make yourself slices of bread with Nutella-stuff and sprinkle a little simple coffee-powder over it! Works.

ever tried sprinkling a handful of "RICE KRISPIES" over your ice cream or yogurt? it adds a nice crunchy texture, kind of like a ice cream cone in a bowl.

This old post reminded me of Roman Meal hot cereal. We had it occasionally when I was a boy 50 years ago but have not seen it recently.
It seems it is still being made by the same firm that began making it in 1912. A mixture of whole wheat, rye, bran and flax seed. It began as a health food and strength builder.

I sprinkle French Toast Crunch on yogurt all the time (a much underrated cereal) - I like both the added crunch and added sweetness. I'm liking the ice cream idea, will now have to try that.

Yeah, but if you want absolute nirvana go for the sea scallops wrapped in bacon.

One could start an entire new thread......"Wrapped in Bacon" The Japanese restaurant I frequent has both scallop wrapped in bacon as well as green beans and also asparagus.....one of the reasons I frequent the joint!

Asparagus wrapped in bacon. There's an existentialism to this pairing. One of the worst tasting things ever (brussels sprouts would have been the worst) wrapped inside one of the best tasting things ever. Or maybe it's really the oldest battle of them all: Good versus Evil / God versus the Devil / Darkness versus Light. Possibly, all the questions of the universe can be boiled down to asparagus wrapped in bacon.

Another restaurant we frequent offers brussel sprouts pan fried with bacon. Have not tried it (hate the sprouts!) but they told me it is their most popular appy bar none.

Dates stuffed with an almond, wrapped in jamon, (Spanish dry ham - like prosciutto), and fried are a fairly common tapa at traditional Spanish restaurants. They can also be served cold without frying. Its the combination of sweet and salty, and chewy and crunchy that makes them so addictive.

I rather like peanut butter on apples, but never thought of putting them in a tortilla. I might have to try that, but I think I'll pass on adding honey to the mix; too sweet for me.

You're right, next time I will leave off the honey, too. It's not really necessary for this Burrito-yummyness.

One of the staple hors d'oeurves my son's new high school serves at events (open houses, new family gatherings etc) is bacon (maple and sugary) wrapped water chestnuts. While I find them a bit odd they are indeed tasty. Those and the sirloin sliders seem to be their signature finger foods.

My inlaws (German) would always serve waffles with chicken gravy. I grew up with such gravies on toast, usually for breakfast, so it wasn't very much of a stretch. For me its either sweet or savory not a combination of the two. Bob Evans restaurants serve waffles and chicken but that has syrup on it which just makes it weird in my opinion.

peanut butter and carrots. Sounds weird, but it's quite good!
