Favourite food to go with drinks?

[d000hg]

What food, especially snacks, are your favourites with different drinks? Any really weird and/or specific combos out there?

Here are a few from me:

Tea - ginger biscuits OR bacon sandwich
Real coffee - Greggs fudge doughnut
Instant coffee - peanut butter sandwich
Lager - salt & vinegar chipsticks
Red wine - pimento stuffed olives
Single malt whisky - tesco cheese savouries

Tea: Rich Tea biscuits.

Coffee: Digestive biscuits.

Premier Inn Hotel Bedroom Instant Coffee With "I Can't Believe It's Not Rat Lactation" UHT Milk And Not Quite Enough Sugar: those two little gingery biscuits they also provide.

Wine (of any kind): Meat (of any kind, though Duck is always FTW).

Ale: Salted peanuts (although the fats and oils break down the polypeptide chains that form the head, but as I usually prefer ale with a minimal head, this isn't a problem for me. YMMV.)

I stopped drinking spirits some years ago, so no preferences there. Also, lager (of the kind sold in this country) is foul muck, so no preferences there either.

(Well, actually, I prefer water over British lager.)

Tea - Milk chocolate digestives
Real coffee - Chilli chocolate truffles
Instant coffee - Plain chocolate digestives
Lager - Really spicy Thai crackers
Red wine - Cheddar cheese
Single malt whisky - A cigarette (gave up 10 years ago but this is a wishlist, right??)

Basically I love cheese, chocolate, chillis and cigarettes.

Tea - only drink chinese green tea, so nothing (anything would clash).
Real coffee - er, nothing. I like the taste of coffee.
Instant coffee - don't drink it. Ever.
Lager - no particular favourite thing. Will eat if hungry.
Red wine - cheese, meat.
Single malt whisky - nothing, almost anything would clash. Maybe vanilla ice cream occasionally: don't laugh, it has the same style of taste.

A pretty flat list: IMHO drinking is too serious to interfere with.

I blame it on the consumption of too much red wine in the preceding option.
