Feastie Friday: Sweet & Salty

While the deliciousness of the simultaneously sweet and salty treat is nothing new, it's definitely become a popular trend in the food world recently. And for good reason - that salty/sweet combination is just indescribably delicious. Add in a few contrasting textures - maybe salty/sweet and crunchy/soft - jackpot. So we've rounded up our top 5 sweet and salty treats on the web this week. It's amazing what a tiny sprinkle of sea salt will do for a chocolate chip cookie - try it!

It doesn't even have to be baked goods - try a sweet/salty/spicy BBQ sauce, or pair a salty cheese with a sweet fruit. The possibilities are endless! And a little sprinkle of sea salt on your favorite chocolate chip cookies is a great place to start - give it a try!

Happy Eating,
