Yesterday, I was stopped at a traffic light next to a pickup with one of those magnetic signs popular among small businesses on its door. It advertised "computers and landscaping," which seemed like an unusual mix of specialties to me.
It reminded me of a sign I saw in front of a seafood restaurant in a strip mall this fall which advertised a "steak and hot dog combo." Those are two foods I never thought of serving together at the same meal -- and from a seafood restaurant, as well. It was, at least, budget-friendly, as I recall the price being something like $2.99. Oh, and sno-cones were also available, if you wanted some dessert.
