Yesterday everyone found out what’s cookin’ in Nikola Mirotic’s kitchen, and pretty sure no one ever wanted to smell it.
In college I ate plenty of things I thought were “odd” combinations… Grilled cheese sandwiches stuffed with Flamin’ Hots, toasted peanut butter and jelly sandwiches stuffed with Cap’n Crunch, Dorito’s with cottage cheese and hot sauce– the list goes on.
At that time in my life, I worked at the University of Oregon campus Dairy Queen. What a time to be alive that was…Most nights I would literally close my eyes, scoop random toppings into blizzards, mix ’em up and bring them home to my roommates. I’d even put ice cream and fries on burgers because, why not? I was in college. I was broke. I was high…
However, no amount of weed could ever convince me that jelly & mayonnaise sandwiches or Oreo’s and orange juice are good together. NO AMOUNT.
The Nikola Mirotic Taste Test
Who is the first to try a Jelly & Mayonnaise sandwich? Yes, you read that right…jelly and mayo 😳

Fast forward to today, and apparently people just love to test the resolve of their palate, as some members of ESPN’s the Jump decided they’d pull up a seat in Nikola’s kitchen and see what all this culinary blasphemy was about.
The look on Stephen Jackson’s face alone was enough to make me skip my lunch this afternoon. That is until I got hungry, which was 10 minutes later. But still… some things just aren’t meant to be mixed. Truth be told, Oreo’s and orange juice is the most egregious foodie offense I’ve ever seen– worse than ketchup on a Chicago dog, and that’s saying a lot. But alas, like Jim Morrison said, people are strange.
