"Unlikely" favorite tastes and smells

While there are lots of tastes and smells that are commonly regarded as pleasant or good, here is a list of some of my “unlikely” tastes and smells that I like.

Unlikely smells:

Broadleaf tobacco curing in a barn in South Georgia
Diesel exhaust from a Greyhound bus on a cold morning
Fresh cut hay after lying in the field for a day
Marshland right after high tide
Rotten leaves in a woods right after a rain
Sawdust from a sawmill
“Sweet” horse feed
Puppy breath
My Grandma’s kitchen ~anytime~
A horse’s neck
Inside a Prince Albert tobacco can
Being downwind of a pet food factory

Unlikely taste combinations:

A Swisher Sweet cigar and a Dr. Pepper
Chocolate layer cake and a glass of grape juice
A pack of Lance salted peanuts poured into a “small” Coke
Extra sharp cheddar cheese and a Pepsi
Ritz crackers and a Pepsi
Buttered toast and coffee
Limburger cheese and onion on rye
Maple syrup and ham
Hot apple pie with a slice of American or cheddar cheese melted on it
Fried sweet potatoes in butter (a little overdone)
Eggs (over easy) mixed with grits with salt and pepper
Squirrel gravy and fried potatoes

Are any of these familiar? Got anymore?

Smells

Freshly plowed field.
Rain.
Fresh cut grass.
Fresh cut hay.
Sweet feed (good one rattle rattle).
The smell of a lumber yard.
The smell of a feed store.
The smell of a early in the morning or late in the evening.
The smell of a lake.
